Busy Pro Bono Year for Malman Law
Chicago, Illinois (PRWEB) January 07, 2012
The slogan of the Chicago-based Law Offices of Steven J. Malman & Associates PC ? ?Protecting the Rights of the Injured? ? always speaks for itself, but it speaks loudest and clearest when attorney Steven Malman and his staff take on pro-bono cases.
The firm doesn?t have a specific pro bono division, but ?if we can help someone, we do it,? its namesake noted. While every client is entitled to Malman Law?s ?zero fee guarantee? ? there?s no fee unless and until client compensation is collected ? it has been known to offer services gratis to those who need it most.
In 2011, the firm handled more free-of-charge cases than ever before, citing not only the rights but the needs of clients stung by the arrows of the treacherous economy.
?With the recession just beginning to turn around, there are a lot of people out there in serious financial straits,? Steven Malman said. ?We?re always happy to see if we can help them out.
?We don?t always do it; it depends on the case,? he added. ?But the truth is, current and former clients tend to call us with various personal injury-related questions and other matters, and even if it?s something we don?t normally handle, we?re happy to see what we can do.?

Charity Is Not Greek to Dennis Flint
Tallahassee, Florida (PRWEB) January 15, 2012
Dennis Flint marked two special anniversaries this week: one year as a restaurateur, and six months as a volunteer at Dishing Out Hope.
The 38-year-old restaurateur realized a lifelong dream when he opened the doors to his Spyro Grille in January 2011. But Dennis Flint, who studied at the Florida Culinary Institute in West Palm Beach, said something was nagging at him from the moment he debuted his restaurant, even though the eatery ? which specializes in Greek and Mediterranean dishes ? was ?successful from the day we opened.?
At first, Dennis Flint couldn?t put his finger on what was bothering him. But by mid-summer, with the tourist season in full swing and his new business sizzling, he realized what it was.
?Driving to the restaurant every day, I would pass Dishing Out Hope,? Dennis Flint said. ?And sometimes, the line was out the door.?
Even with a new, busy restaurant to occupy him, he couldn?t continue turning a blind eye to the soup kitchen and its clients. He even tried taking a different route to work, Dennis Flint noted, but the knowledge that he had a special talent that might be especially useful to a soup kitchen wouldn?t go away.
