25 Years Later: Honoring 9/11 Heroes & First Responders By Worby Vecchio Edelman, LLP on September 11, 2026

Remembering the Heroes of Ground Zero

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the unmatched bravery shown twenty-five years ago on September 11, 2001.

While a quarter-century has passed, the legacy of that day remains an active part of our daily mission at Worby Vecchio Edelman. We don't just remember the tragedy; we stand with the survivors and responders who are still living with the toxic physical aftermath of Ground Zero.

To honor this milestone anniversary, we have gathered a collection of rare video archives, historical news specials, and the moving personal stories of the heroes we've been privileged to represent—including Detective John Walcott and Sister Cindy Mahoney.

 

VCF Support Remains Available

If you or a loved one is still facing health challenges related to time spent at Ground Zero or in the surrounding exposure zone, please remember that the Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) remains open to provide financial compensation to eligible individuals and families. You can learn more about VCF claims, eligibility, and how we can help on our Victim Compensation Fund Claims page.
