Dear Mr. Stonecipher,
I am writing to thank you and Pre-Paid Legal for the great result we recently experienced through the use of our membership.
Recently the Ninth Circuit Court adjudicated [my case against a major movie theatre chain]. This case sprang [from] an experience where my wife and I were publicly humiliated and asked to leave a movie theatre because the manager of the theatre refused to enforce the handicapped companion seating rules.
As you know, I am a quadriplegic from an accident 25 years ago, but [I] am still able to get around. Even though the physical challenges I face are many and frequent, I have learned to hardly notice them.
I did not realize how important this case apparently was until my phone started ringing repeatedly with people thanking me for persevering in bringing the case. Dozens of people described far worse experiences than mine in enforcing basic ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and companion rights. Many described being afraid to leave their homes for fear of constant confrontations.
This case has even been featured on numerous talk radio shows and in several newspaper articles hailing it as a major victory for disability rights. The difference? My Pre-Paid Legal membership.
I was referred to the top ADA lawyers in America who prosecuted this case at absolutely no charge to us. Even though I am a law school graduate, I would never have had the means to sustain such an action to the appellate levels.
My membership had not only helped me personally in this instance, but has brought about change for tens of thousands of other disabled Americans who are otherwise voiceless.
Thank you so much. I am so proud to be a part of this company and will continue to pursue my dream of building a successful business with Pre-Paid Legal.
Sincerely,
R. Fortyune
