THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CASE 
OF MY ENTIRE CAREER

    

 Steve Benvenisti, Esq

The case is about a college student who had everything 
going for him in life, until one day, while on Spring Break in Florida, while crossing the street, perfectly sober, he was 
stuck by a drunk driver. 

Unbelievably powerful presentation. 


Mr. Benvenisti has given his presentation at over 50 schools 
in NJ.  He was listed as a "Super Lawyer" in 2010 and 2011 and certified by the Supreme Court of NJ as a Civil Trial Attorney (less then 4% of NJ Lawyers are board certified).  He has received Government honors by the US Senate, US Congress, US House of Representatives, New Jersey Governor and NJ Joint
Senate-General Assembly.

   MAN LOSES LEG IN CRASH
     CAUSE - TEEN TEXTING

Dave Kubert has learned to find humor in living without his left leg.  "I flip my leg around like this and I rest my drink on it."  But having a prothestic leg due to an 18 year old who was sending a text message while driving is no joke.  Half the students at Hillsborough High School admitted during an assembly that they text and drive or that they know people or reguarly text and drive.
