At Derrevere Stevens Black & Cozad, we believe that participating in elections is not just a right, but a civic duty that should never be hindered by work. Voting shapes our communities, policies, and future, and that's why we proudly support our team in exercising this vital responsibility. To show our commitment, we are providing extra PTO to all hourly employees who vote early! Your time at work should never stand in the way of having your voice heard. We encourage all businesses to follow suit and provide their employees with the time and flexibility they need to vote. Supporting your team's right to participate in democracy is a powerful way to invest in a better future for everyone. Remember - not only is it a civic duty, but it's a privilege that many around the world do not have. No matter how busy we are, let's prioritize our role in shaping our democracy! 💼🗳️ #DSBCFamily #Vote #CivicDuty #SupportVoting #DemocracyInAction #EarlyVoting

As Rosh Hashanah approaches, this year’s reflection is marked by a somber reality. The ongoing conflict in the Middle East weighs heavily on our hearts, and we stand in solidarity with all those affected by these challenging times.   Yet, even in moments of uncertainty, Rosh Hashanah reminds us of the power of renewal, hope, and the possibility of a brighter future. As we reflect on the year that has passed and welcome the new year with prayers for peace, strength, and healing, may we all find a path toward compassion and unity.   Wishing all who celebrate a Shanah Tovah – a year of safety, resilience, and the promise of better days ahead. 🍎🍯 #DSBCFamily #RoshHashanah #Peace #Hope #NewBeginnings

I was today years old when I finally got to do an appellate oral argument for a subrogation case. This morning I had the pleasure of representing one of my insurance carrier clients on an appeal for a worker's compensation subrogation matter. Arguments were held via Zoom (thank goodness) before the 6th District Court of Appeal in Orlando, Florida. I attended from our office in Vermont and will be sleeping in my own bed tonight since it was virtual. Interesting discussion on the application of Florida Statute 440.39(3)(a) if that floats your boat. This moment was a lot of fun and a long time coming. Thanks to Anne-Marie Clark-Dale, Shirley Jean McEachern, and Jess Clark for working the case up with me to get to this point. Fingers crossed we get a favorable decision. 🤞🏻 Also - thanks Jennifer DeVitto for dragging me into this area of practice as a "favor" 10 years ago.... :-D #Subro4Life #HighTechSubro #LegalEagles #AndNowWeWait

Never Forget.
