On May 24, 2024, Salesia Smith-Gordon, Esq. had the distinct honor of serving as a co-presenter for a webinar hosted by the Florida Justice Association (FJA). It was a privilege for her to share a perspective as both a personal injury advocate and a mediator, two roles that are deeply connected in the pursuit of justice and fair resolutions.

The webinar provided an excellent platform to engage in meaningful discussions about injury law, mediation strategies, and the evolving landscape of advocacy. It was incredibly rewarding to contribute insights that could help fellow legal professionals navigate the complexities of resolving disputes while ensuring that injured individuals receive the justice they deserve.

Salesia Smith-Gordon sincerely thanks to the Florida Justice Association for this opportunity and Michelle Crumbliss, Lee Phillips, and Des Barbosa for their leadership and dedication in organizing such an impactful event. Their commitment to fostering education and collaboration within the legal community is truly commendable.

Events like these highlight the importance of continued learning and professional dialogue. Mediation plays a crucial role in resolving personal injury cases efficiently, often leading to fair settlements without the need for prolonged litigation. As an injury advocate, Salesia Smith-Gordon find great fulfillment in helping clients achieve resolutions that not only address their financial and medical needs but also provide a sense of closure.

Last Friday’s webinar was a great reminder of why they do what they do—advocating for those in need, facilitating fair negotiations, and ensuring that justice remains accessible to all.
