“Our attorneys have been protecting people seriously injured in automobile accidents throughout Michigan for more than 50 years. It’s also our mission to help those in need, to give back to our communities, and to help make Michigan a better and safer place.” This is from the website of Michigan Auto Law, a Michigan firm making giving back a priority, which is why they’re featured in this week’s Feel Good Friday post.Often, I’ll choose a firm or an individual attorney and showcase one particular instance of giving back. Honestly, when I looked at this firm’s website, it was hard to decide which act of giving back to their community that I wanted to highlight. So, I didn’t choose only one; instead, I chose four. You’ll see why shortly.I’m a Michigan native and it’s January. Unless you’ve never heard of our weather reputation (there are some folks outside of the U.S. who haven’t), it is cold. Scratch that; it’s damn cold. As I write this, it is 12⁰F with 13mph winds, making it feel like -3⁰F. Cold. Sadly, there are many folks in this winter wonderland who don’t have enough food to eat. Not only are they (like the rest of us) freezing, but they’re also hungry. Enter Michigan Auto Law… This firm worked with two different food-based organizations to help feed the hungry.

The colors are either maize and blue (University of Michigan) or green and white (Michigan State University). The rivalry between the two is well-known throughout the state. Well, Michigan Auto Law isn’t exempt from that rivalry. Only they’ve taken it a step farther and turned it into an opportunity to give back to the community.[caption id="attachment_14823" align="aligncenter" width="300"]Image courtesy of www.michiganautolaw.com.

Again, from the firm’s website: “Every year, our firm has a University of Michigan/Michigan State University rivalry that ends with a charity donation by the lawyers who went to the losing school to the charity of choice of the winning team. We recently made a financial contribution to the leading Ann Arbor children’s hospital.” That hospital is the University of Michigan Mott Children’s Hospital, an organization that does amazing things in pediatric healthcare.So, hat’s off (quickly, it’s cold out there!) to Michigan Auto Law for doing so much for their clients and their community!
