Bader Scott Injury Lawyers invites college-bound students who have survived a car accident to submit their applications for our annual Survivor of a Car Accident Scholarship. Our firm will award $2,500 to the winner of this year’s scholarship. The deadline for applying is June 15, 2022.
Looking for Students Who Are Passionate About Law
As a law firm that represents the rights of people who have suffered injuries in motor vehicle collisions, Bader Scott Injury Lawyers knows the challenge of recovering physically and emotionally from such an experience. We feel a deep compassion for these individuals and their families, and we offer this scholarship in hopes that it will give some of these victims the encouragement and support they deserve.
“It takes courage to survive and recover from a car accident,” said Seth Bader, owner of Bader Scott Injury Lawyers, “But it takes even more than that to come out the other side with determination and drive. That takes true grit—and it’s the kind of character trait we want to celebrate and encourage.”
Managing Partner Luis Scott agreed. “We have witnessed this type of resolve in many of our clients, and we decided that a student who demonstrates this strength of character is someone who we want to support in their dreams to accomplish great things in life.”
