Personal Injury Lawyers: Help out the Helpless
I had lunch with my personal injury solicitor colleague Jim Grevell last week in Brisbane. As well as being very busy in handling catastrophic accident claims Jim has found a way to help people who suffered serious spinal injury purely by accident or their own fault ie there was no negligence. Along with Peter Yeo who became quadriplegic after a fall at home he has founded a unique charity where the lawyers who look after the victims of negligence donate a portion of their fees to the foundation to buy aids and house modifications to people who are never going to receive a payout after suffering serious spinal injuries. It contradicts the image of compensation lawyers only caring about victims who can pay out big time not the doubly unlucky. Go to point 5Zero to check it out.
