July 14, 2020, marked a turning point in Jeffrey’s life. A vibrant, active lifestyle came to a sudden halt when a car t-boned his motorcycle, crushing his leg and foot and nearly costing him his foot. The accident rendered him bedbound for months, forcing him to relearn how to walk and leading to a long period away from work.
Once a life full of work, workouts, concerts, and fun, Jeffrey’s world shrank to the confines of his recovery room. Depression set in as he grappled with a 40-pound weight gain and the loss of his old life. But in this darkest time, attorney Jules Olsman emerged as a beacon of hope.
Jules, a friend of Jeffrey’s uncle, assured him everything would be okay, promising to fight for his case. Jeffrey’s admiration for Jules grew as he witnessed his advocacy in action, describing him as a wonderful man and lawyer whose arguments he could watch for hours.
The road to recovery was fraught with challenges. For two years, Jeffrey lived what he described as “hellish” due to his injuries and the lawsuit, with private detectives unnervingly trailing him. Despite the pressure, Jules’ firm provided a sense of security and inclusion, with constant updates and a supportive attitude, ensuring Jeffrey never felt alone.
A Fresh Start & New Beginnings
Yet, within this burden lay a hidden blessing. The accident provided Jeffrey the impetus to pivot in life, starting his own business as a Certified Life Skill Mentor and Certified Autism Specialist. His new career path honored his commitment to non-judgment and acceptance, reflecting the empathy he received from Jules.
Jules’ patience was remarkable, especially as Jeffrey, by his own admission, could be difficult to converse with due to his tendency to jump from topic to topic. However, Jules navigated these conversations with understanding and calmness, embodying the patience and attentiveness that Jeffrey believes the world needs more of.
Their attorney-client relationship blossomed into friendship, with shared interests like playing the guitar and keeping in constant communication, whether through calls, emails, or letters. Jules made Jeffrey feel like his top priority.
The culmination of this arduous journey was a victorious arbitration. Jules presented Jeffrey’s story, leading to a satisfactory outcome that left Jeffrey feeling supported every step of the way.
