🎄 A Little Holiday Spirit: Attorneys Gift Safe Rides Home This Festive Season

Local lawyers lend a hand

Leading the charge are firms like Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers in Louisville, KY, as well as Allen & Allen in Richmond, VA,  and Lawrence & Associates of Cincinnati. These firms, along with similar local organizations and associations, are offering free Uber vouchers for rides home on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve. The vouchers may be available through the firms’ apps or websites to local residents, while supplies last. Similarly, you can visit Responsibility.org for a voucher.

Why are lawyers doing this?

At first glance, it might seem like an unusual holiday gift. But for attorneys who specialize in personal injury and accident law, the motivation is deeply personal and professional.

These lawyers work every day with families whose lives have been shattered by car accidents, many involving impaired driving. They understand better than most that a single decision to drive after drinking can lead to lifelong consequences—legal, financial, and emotional. By providing a free, no-questions-asked alternative, they are actively working to prevent the very tragedies they are hired to litigate. It's a powerful form of community service that aligns with their mission of public safety and demonstrates a commitment to their community beyond the courtroom.

Isaacs of Isaacs & Isaacs, who was seriously injured in a bicycle crash in 2015, stated, "Nobody wants a ride home to complicate a fun evening. This makes it easy: claim the voucher, enjoy the holiday, and enjoy a safe ride." The firm has a proven track record with these initiatives, having covered more than 500 safe rides during the Thanksgiving weekend just last month. 

Safety is the best gift

This initiative offers a perfect, practical reminder for all of us during the festive rush: planning your safe ride home is the most important item on your holiday to-do list.

The generosity of these local firms and businesses also serves as an inspiration. While these specific vouchers may be limited by location and quantity, the spirit behind them is universal. It’s a great prompt to check if similar programs are running in your own city or town. Local bars, restaurants, community organizations, or even other law firms might be offering safe ride promotions for Christmas and New Year's Eve.

Most importantly, it reinforces that there is never an excuse to drive impaired. With rideshare apps, taxis, designated drivers, and public transit, a safe option is always available. This holiday season, give yourself and everyone else on the road the gift of safety. Plan ahead, and if you see a free ride offer from a community-minded business, take advantage of it and spread the word.

Wishing you a joyful and safe holiday season from all of us at YourAccident.com.
