Philadelphia labor, employment and workers’ compensation firm Willig, Williams & Davidson attorney Ryan Allen Hancock received the Philadelphia Bar Association’s PNC Wealth Management Achievement Award, which honors significant accomplishments in improving the administration of justice.
Hancock was recognized for his dedication to helping low-income Philadelphians overcome past criminal convictions through pro bono litigation. In 2009, he joined two other Philadelphia-based civil rights attorneys to create Philadelphia Lawyers for Social Equity, which helps Philadelphians expunge criminal records that can hinder them from attaining employment, housing and other benefits for which they otherwise are qualified.
