Mending Bridges This Holiday Season: A Message from Our Founder

The festive period is upon us once again — a time when twinkling lights illuminate our streets and warmth fills our homes. Yet for many, the holidays also bring a quieter, more reflective mood, prompting us to consider the relationships we’ve let drift and the words we’ve left unsaid.

Greg Monforton, founder of our firm, shares an important message in this year’s holiday service announcement: consider this season as an opportunity to reconnect with estranged loved ones and heal fractured relationships.

Why Reconciliation Matters

As lawyers for the injured, we witness firsthand the devastating impact of sudden loss. We work with families who’ve lost loved ones in unexpected accidents — incidents that happened in the blink of an eye, often through no fault of the deceased. The grief our clients experience is profound, but that grief is even more painful when they leave loved ones behind with unfinished business, unspoken apologies, or words of love never expressed.

When tragedy strikes without warning, there’s no chance to prepare. No opportunity to say goodbye properly. No moment to bridge the gap that may have grown between you and someone you once held dear. That absence of closure can haunt families for years, adding an extra layer of anguish to an already unbearable situation.

Don’t Wait for Tomorrow

The holidays offer a natural opening to extend an olive branch without it feeling forced or awkward. People expect to hear from loved ones during this season. Hearts tend to soften. Forgiveness comes more easily.

This festive period, we encourage you to reach out. Send that text. Make that call. Write that letter. Whatever small gesture feels right to you, take it. The relationships you mend today could bring you peace and happiness for years to come.

Our Message to You

From everyone at our firm, we wish you a safe, joyful, and reflective holiday season. May you find the courage to reconnect with those who matter, the wisdom to forgive, and the peace that comes from knowing you’ve done everything you can to nurture the relationships that enrich your life.

While we can help you seek justice after an accident, we can’t give you back the time you lost or conversations you wish you had. There is nothing like the holiday season to take the opportunity to reach out in love.

Hear Greg’s full holiday message below, and please, drive safely and look after one another this season.
