just1mike and The Chad Effect
Just1Mike and Chad Effect were created after 2 young men both lost their lives to sudden cardiac death (SCD). The effort behind these groups is to help create awareness and educate communities on identifying heart risks in children and teens. Just1mike and The Chad Effect continually advocate that AED devices be placed in schools, athletic facilities, public parks, institutions, and corporations to help save lives. Dolan Law is happy to play a small part with financial donations to help these great families create awareness on the importance of AED’s.
“Brendan’s Law”
Brendan Burke tragically lost his life at 21 years old in a car crash by a motorist test-driving a vehicle that had decals and paperwork blocking his view. Through the efforts of former Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White, Brendan’s Law was initiated. Brendan’s Law is a traffic safety measure that states that stickers, decals and paperwork must be removed from car windows before test driving a dealership’s vehicle. Dolan Law continues to support the Burke family in its efforts to provide high school and college scholarships in Brendan’s name.
