Help Us Celebrate Our 75th Anniversary… After All, Your Stories are a Big Part of It

In this, our 75th anniversary year, we have much to be thankful for. A law firm, any firm, doesn’t achieve a significant milestone without loyal clients, associates and referral partners.

All too often your stories go unrecognized. But this year, we want to change all that. In addition to telling our stories, we want to tell yours too.

By sharing your stories as part of our 75th anniversary celebrations, it’s our sincere hope that others will be comforted and inspired by what they read.

Inspiring Stories Are Everywhere

Whether you are a past or present client or a health care worker, we would ask you to tell us your story about how you have coped with an injury or loss of a loved one; the difficult and sometimes treacherous path of recovery; or importantly someone special who inspired or provided you with comfort, love and understanding to allow you to deal with adversity.  Everybody has a story about an everyday hero or an extraordinary act of caring. We want to provide you with a place to tell these stories and share them with others.

Monthly Winning Stories Will Be Rewarded

Good deeds and the compassion they inspire deserve to be recognized, celebrated and rewarded. So starting in February and continuing monthly through 2011, we will choose one special story for a special inspirational award. In particular, the selected entrant will choose a charity from the following list to which a charitable donation will be made in their name:

• Canadian Paraplegic Association of Ontario
• Ontario Brain Injury Association or a satellite Head Injury Association
• Community Head Injury Resource Service (CHIRS)
• MukiBaum Treatment Centres
• Hospitals:
  • The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids)
  • St. John’s Rehab Hospital
  • Bridgepoint Health
  • Toronto Rehab
  • Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital
