🚨 Stay Safe, Stay Prepared 🚨 As we closely monitor the upcoming potential hurricane, we want to remind everyone to take this situation seriously and prioritize your safety. Given the recent devastation in our area, it’s crucial that we take all precautions early and quickly to protect ourselves and our loved ones. If authorities issue an evacuation order, please follow it without hesitation—it is not worth risking your life to stay behind. We understand the anxiety that comes with these situations, but this is not a time to panic; it’s a time to prepare and act responsibly. Stay informed, stay safe, and look out for one another. Together, we’ll get through this.

🌟 Workshop Update: Moving Forward Together 🌟 After much consideration, we’ve decided to move forward with our upcoming workshop. In light of recent events, we believe this gathering can offer a sense of normalcy and serve as a meaningful opportunity for our community to come together during this time of recovery. Now, more than ever, it's important to support one another, share knowledge, and connect as we navigate the challenges ahead. We hope that this workshop will not only provide valuable insights but also create a space for healing and unity. We look forward to seeing you there and standing strong as a community.

📢 Important Update for Registered Volunteers of the Beach Clean-Up📢 We’ve just been informed by Keep Pinellas Beautiful that our upcoming event has been canceled. The city has decided to bring in contractors with heavy machinery to clear debris, and it’s been deemed too dangerous for volunteers at this time. But don’t worry! There’s another clean-up opportunity you can attend. While it’s not hosted by us, you’re welcome to join the St. Pete Tangerine Plaza Cleanup. For more details and to register, please visit: Event Link. We appreciate your willingness to help and hope to see you at future events! Thank you for your understanding and support.

🌊 Beach Clean-Up After the Storm! 🌊 After the recent hurricane, our beaches need us now more than ever, and we’re calling on YOU to join us in helping restore them! We are excited to host our monthly beach clean-up and are incredibly grateful to have the amazing Stetson Law students back again this month to lend a hand. All materials will be provided, thanks to the generous support of Keep Pinellas Beautiful. We will have water and breakfast. Please wear shoes as this will be more of a debris clean-up. This is a fantastic opportunity to give back to the community we love, while making a real impact on our environment. We will also be collecting any donations you would like to provide (see items attached), and we will be taking them to Daystar Life Center who has been instrumental in collecting essential items and distributing them back into the community. Let’s come together, roll up our sleeves, and make our shores shine again! 📅 Date: 10/5 Saturday 🕘 Time: 0830-10am 📍 Location: Pass-a-Grille #CommunityLawFirm #BeachCleanup #StetsonLaw #KeepPinellasBeautiful #GiveBack #DaystarLifeCenter

As your community law firm, we deeply care about everyone affected by the hurricane and want you to know that your safety and well-being are our top priority. We are here to support you in any way possible as we all work through this recovery together. The office will remain closed today Friday 9/27. Now That the Hurricane Has Passed: Steps to Take if You Have Damage The hurricane has moved on, but recovery is just beginning. If your property was affected, here’s what you should do next: Ensure Safety First: Before assessing any damage, make sure it's safe to return to your home. Check for downed power lines, gas leaks, and structural damage. If your home was flooded, avoid entering until it's been deemed safe by local authorities. Document Everything: Take clear photos and videos of any damage to your property—both inside and out. This will be crucial for insurance claims and repairs. Contact Your Insurance Company: Reach out to your insurance provider as soon as possible to start the claims process. Provide them with all the documentation you’ve gathered. Make Temporary Repairs: If it’s safe to do so, make temporary repairs to prevent further damage, like covering broken windows or roof holes. Keep receipts for any materials used, as your insurance may reimburse you. Avoid Scams: Be cautious of contractors who show up unsolicited offering repairs. Always check credentials, verify licenses, and get written quotes before proceeding with any work. Stay Informed: Continue following local updates regarding power restoration, water safety, and any assistance programs available in your area. We’re here to support our community in the recovery process. Stay safe and reach out if you need any guidance.

Good morning, friends of the firm. Due to the approaching 'Hurricane' Helene, we will be closing our office at 2:30 PM today, 9/25, and will remain closed through tomorrow, 9/26. The safety of our team and community is our highest priority. Several events, including Battle of the Burg, Lattes with a Lawyer, and Together We Thrive, have been postponed for now. Mandatory evacuations have been issued for Zone A in both Hillsborough and Pinellas counties due to the impending hurricane. Please follow these orders for your safety. For shelter information and updates, visit the following link: https://lnkd.in/e8S3uY2 Please take precautions and stay informed. For the latest updates, visit these resources: https://lnkd.in/eVWfmJwY and https://lnkd.in/ed3FVj_q. We plan to reopen with regular hours on Friday. We hope that you and your loved ones stay safe during the hurricane. Please take all necessary precautions and know that our thoughts are with you during this time. Once the storm has passed and conditions are safe, we look forward to reconnecting and seeing you again. Your safety is our priority, and we’ll be here to support you when we’re all on the other side of this. Stay safe and take care.

As your community law firm, we prioritize the safety of our residents and commuters. Due to the current projected path of soon to be Hurricane Helene, we have made the decision to cancel our Lattes with a Lawyer event scheduled for this upcoming Thursday. We will continue to closely monitor the storm and provide updates on our office hours and any other pertinent information. In the meantime, we encourage you to take this opportunity to make the necessary preparations. It is always better to be over-prepared than to regret not being ready. Please know that we are here to support you through this time. Stay safe!

Happy Monday! We are excited to share a lineup of events that members of our team will be attending this week. For additional details, please visit our events page. We look forward to connecting with you: https://lnkd.in/einceqUb #GetYourLegalAction #TheLawFirmofDouglasGJackson #CommunityLawFirm #BetterTogether
