That was the case when Philadelphia Bar Association Chancellor Sayde Ladov took to the dance floor with her hubby, attorney David Ladov, as part of the attraction of the Philadelphia Bar Foundation's 31st Andrew Hamilton Benefit, which raises money to make legal services available for the disadvantaged. Here the dancing barristers (left) join Ken Shear, executive director of the Philadelphia Bar Association, and his wife Susie at the special night.

 | | Philadelphia lawyers showed up aplenty at the ball, named after the attorney whose victory in the free press case of John Peter Zenger in 1735 led to the popularity of the phrase "Philadelphia lawyer." Suited up for the evening (from left) are Stuart Kurtz and wife Deborah Gross, 2009 vice president
of the Philadelphia Bar Foundation; Amy B. Ginensky, foundation president;
and Stella Tsai of the 2009 Andrew Hamilton Benefit planning committee. Among those honored during the evening were the firms of Dechert LLP and Berner Klaw & Watson LLP, with the Citizens Bank Pro Bono Award. |
