Why We Created This Scholarship
At Silverman Law Office, we put our clients first in everything we do. Our attorneys, paralegals and staff help people solve legal problems they can’t handle on their own, and there’s no better feeling than lifting that burden off someone’s shoulders. We believe the way we practice law sets an example for how every client deserves to be treated.
The Legal Helper Scholarship is our way of investing in the next generation of people who will carry that work forward. A law degree is one path, but it isn’t the only one. Whatever field a student chooses, we want to support those who are dedicated to helping others with their legal needs and making the world a more compassionate place.

- Undergraduate, graduate and professional students
- Community college students
