In total we got 914 shields out to first responders and hospitals across the United States and even abroad! Yesterday we completed our project. We donated the remaining $1500 in the GoFundMe account to Lincoln High School’s engineering program in San Diego. We also donated the $900 printer we used to complete the project. As a thank you to everyone who helped us, we matched the $1500 donation and purchased another $900 printer to be donated to Hoover High School’s engineering program. This pushed us right up to almost $10,000 raised in total. Thank you to everyone again for helping us with this effort. Stay safe everyone!
Since the outbreak, our firm has remained open. However, for the health and safety of our employees and community, we have been working both remotely and in the office on an appointment basis.
We are pleased to announce that our firm and partnerships have been working to 3D print medical face shields to be donated to our medical providers and those fighting on the front lines of the COVID19 crisis.
In August 2019, our 73-year old client, a Vietnam War Veteran and Lion Club Service Member, walked into a warehouse to pickup food for his church’s food closet. While he waited for his receipt, an employee transported several large stacks of crated bananas to the area where our client was standing. The stacks tipped and fell on our client, injuring his spinal cord. 43 days and several surgeries later, our client was released from the hospital as a “partial quadriplegic” with severe neurological deficits. His doctors could not say whether he would ever walk again. Since that time, he and his wife have dedicated their lives to getting him better. Though he remains limited, he has started to take steps with assistance and is regaining the use of his arms. Last weekend our Firm finalized a settlement in the amount of $7.5 million. We have never met a more deserving couple, and we know they look forward to getting on track and back to serving their community.
