SCOTTSDALE, AZ — Brown & Hobkirk, PLLC founding attorney and partner Kyle Brown, along with his wife Cheree, recently attended ALS Arizona's annual "Bite Nite" gala at the Chateau Luxe in Phoenix. The event, which brings together top local chefs, supporters, and volunteers, raises funds and awareness for the nonprofit's work with Arizona families impacted by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Brown's participation reflects a personal connection to the cause. "We recently lost a friend to ALS, and that loss has stayed with us," he said. "As a law firm, we are looking for ways to support ALS Arizona's mission and help families who are facing this disease with courage and strength."
ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 34,000 adults in the U.S. currently live with the disease. ALS Arizona provides care services, education, resource connections, equipment support, and community programs, along with fundraisers like Bite Nite.
Brown, who has over 25 years of experience, focuses his practice at Brown & Hobkirk on serious personal injury, wrongful death, estate planning, and probate. His involvement with ALS Arizona extends beyond the gala: he is helping organize The Alpine Classic Golf Tournament on December 13, 2026, at Eagle Mountain Golf Club in Scottsdale, to benefit the organization. This partnership has also led the firm to assist families facing ALS with estate-planning documents. In May, Brown presented on estate planning as part of ALS Arizona's "ALS 101" educational series for newly diagnosed individuals and their families.
"Lawyers have a responsibility to support the communities they serve," Brown said, "and organizations like ALS Arizona give us a direct way to make a difference."
