“Advice by the Slice” Law Nites begin Tuesday, June 8th

Is your landlord refusing to fix your plumbing, your boss harassing you at work or is your car still broken after paying big bucks to be fixed by an auto repair shop?  Instead of ranting or raving, learn about your legal rights on Tuesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. at Humpy’s Pizza, in the Shoppes of Wilton Manors at 2244 Wilton Drive.   The first session of what Humpy’s owners hope will continue for a long-term basis for what they also refer to as “Wilton Manors Law” Nites, begins Tuesday, June 8th.

“Everyone has at least one problem which they can use legal advice,” says Dennis Godfrey, a co-owner of the popular eatery which also has take-out and delivery service.  “Gays and lesbians also have unique legal concerns involving wills, health care decisions and domestic partnership arrangements, so we thought ‘Advice by the Slice Nites’  would be a valuable service to the community,” Godfrey added.

Each Tuesday session will feature at least four attorneys working in different legal fields. “Some topics will be covered in more sessions than others, as we learn which issues draw the most questions”, according to attorney, Loring N. Spolter, who practices in the fields of Employment Law, DUI/Criminal Defense and School Law in downtown Fort Lauderdale, who is organizing the participating members of the legal panel. A former prosecutor in the Brooklyn, New York District Attorney’s Office and a native South Floridian, Spolter likes the concept of “making legal issues understandable and available to people at places they like to gather.”

There’s no charge to attend the sessions, though Humpy’s owners hope participants will want to satisfy their hunger and thirst while absorbing the legal knowledge being served. “Humpy’s is a convenient place to come to, to talk and to learn. I’m excited about starting a regular meeting place for the community,” Godfrey said. “Besides, unlike ‘Law and Order’ or ‘LA Law’, at Wilton Manors Law, it’s cool that you can ask questions and have them answered,” Godfrey noted.
