Morris Injury Law backs Las Vegas ¡Ándale! 5K for second straight year

Morris Injury Law returned as title sponsor of the Eighth Annual ¡Ándale! 5K in Las Vegas, giving $25,000 to support scholarships for aspiring law students. The race helps fund LSAT prep courses and testing fees, a cost the foundation says can block Latino students from entering law school.

Why it matters: - The ¡Ándale! 5K helps fund scholarships that cover LSAT preparation courses and related testing fees. - The program is aimed at students who want to pursue law school but face upfront costs that can make the path harder. - The foundation says the race has already raised more than $600,000 and awarded nearly 250 scholarships since it began.

What happened: - Runners and walkers took part in the Eighth Annual ¡Ándale! 5K on Saturday morning, Sept. 26, 2026, at Kellogg Zaher Sports Complex in Las Vegas. - Morris Injury Law served as title sponsor for the second year in a row. - The firm contributed $25,000 to the ¡Ándale! Foundation.

The details: - The ¡Ándale! Foundation grew out of the Nevada Latino Bar Association. - The foundation created the ¡Ándale! Scholarship after learning from education professionals that LSAT prep costs were a major barrier for many Latino students interested in law. - LSAT prep courses can improve test scores, and those scores carry heavy weight in law school admissions. - Money from this year’s race will help the next group of scholarship recipients cover LSAT prep and testing fees. - Students can apply through the foundation’s website, which also includes sponsorship information for the 2027 race. - More information is available at the foundation's website.

Between the lines: - Scott D. Morris has said scholarships and support helped him become a lawyer, which helps explain the firm’s involvement beyond sponsorship. - Morris also tied the event to employee wellness, saying the race reflects the importance of physical and mental health in staying focused under pressure. - The event blends philanthropy with community visibility for both the foundation and the law firm.

What's next: - The ¡Ándale! Foundation is now taking applications for the current scholarship cycle. - The foundation is also seeking sponsors for the 2027 ¡Ándale! 5K. - The race will continue to serve as a fundraising vehicle for future scholarship awards.

The bottom line: - Morris Injury Law is deepening its support for a local legal pipeline effort that turns a 5K race into direct funding for future law students.
