About this talk

Law firm Dworken & Bernstein is a unique legal outfit, by many standards.  In addition to seeking justice in the courtroom, they have developed a program to translate that justice to all of Ohio and many of our state's core needs.  Through their establishment of the organization Ohio Lawyers Give Back, Dworken & Bernstein has distributed over $20 million dollars worth of unclaimed class action law suit funds to some of Ohio's most needy charities.
