For Morris Hirsch, his legal department’s pro bono program is not just a way to support his company’s social responsibility goals or to provide opportunities for the department’s 30 attorneys. It’s an integral part of his personal commitment to community service.

In his professional life, Hirsch is senior executive vice president and general counsel for San Francisco-based UnionBanCal Corp. and its principal subsidiary, Union Bank. Outside of work, he is a member of his synagogue’s Social Action Committee and regularly volunteers at a food bank and a homeless shelter.
