Public Safety Law

Spending a great deal of time meeting with members of individual public safety officers’ associations from across the Southland has enabled the attorneys at Gordon, Edelstein, Krepack, Grant, Felton & Goldstein, LLP (GEK) to gain a thorough understanding of  their legal needs when it comes to Workers’ Compensation and Personal Injury issues.

At GEK we pride ourselves on fully understanding the presumptive industrial injuries outlined in specific labor code sections pertaining specifically to these men and women. They face unique challenges in the workplace, and when they are injured, we work diligently to protect their rights to the full range of benefits to which they are entitled.

Police Unity

From First-Hand Experience

I had the pleasure to ride in the 2011 Police Unity Tour (PUT). On May 28, 2010, I was wounded in a shootout with an armed suspect who wanted me dead.  I had heard about the PUT the year before but I was unable to ride. 

I am a pleasure cyclist, and riding the 250 miles sounded like a fun challenge.  In 2010, in the state of California, 11 law enforcement officers were killed in the line of duty.   If the suspect had succeeded in killing me, there would have been 12 officers killed and I would have been number three that year.  I did the ride both as a survivor and I road in memory of Officer Ryan Bonaminio, a 27-year-old Iraq War Vet and officer for the Riverside Police Department who was killed under similar circumstances as my shooting. 

The ride was a very emotional and almost spiritual experience.  I met and talked to law enforcement officers from all over the world and we all have one thing in common: we do not want people to forget about those who died protecting life and property.  I will never forget walking the memorial and seeing the thousands of names, some of who I knew, and feeling extreme sadness and pain.  I was not able to ride this year due to the fact that the trial of the suspect that shot me was in progress.  But I assure you I will ride in 2013. I will make the pilgrimage to honor those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice."
