LSEM has helped 45,000 people through referrals to other resources, community legal education, outreach and distribution of publications. Motto: “In most cases, we change lives and in some cases, we save them.”The event co-chairs: Brenda Glick and Judy Gorin and honorary chairs were Norman Pressman and Wendi Alper-Pressman. AFTER PARTY PARTY, hosted by the young friends of LSEM and helmed by Drew Taeger, Cristina Spice and Tim O’Connell, offered tickets for a chance to win a basket of “bar essentials” worth $500.

Nothing like having a Carnahan to stench things up.
Yes, and nothing like a stinking Kitty — take a good shower !!!
Kitty: At least have the balls to use your own name.
Unfortunately, there is no justice for all in today’s legal system, particularly the civil system. Most of those in attendance at this event are the rich “Big Law” types who steal, lie and cheat for their wealthy clients, the big banks, big developers, etc., while destroying small and middle sized businesses and the jobs they create. Winning at all costs, including spreading rumor, making threats, and preventing access to the courts are their stock-in-trade.
The “law” has become the rule of money and power. No “little people” ever win, even when a court finds them “innocent,” because by that time they,their families, and their associates have been financially destroyed.
That hateful Kitty belongs in a psychiatric ward away from a sane society!
