Himelfarb Proszanski Donation to the Lyndhurst Patient Amenity Fund

We are proud to sponsor the Lyndhurst Centre’s Parapan Am Games, which will take place on Wednesday, July 15, 2015 from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm at the grounds of Toronto Rehab’s Lyndhurst Centre, located at 520 Sutherland Drive in Toronto.

The purpose of this event is to create awareness of the Parapan Am Games and adapted leisure resources within the community. This event will also increase knowledge about adapted sport community resources, while allowing people to learn a variety of new adapted sports skills for future community participation.

Toronto Rehab’s Lyndhurst Centre will host close to 300 patients, staff, families and friends for this special event. Staff and patients will compete on teams in a variety of adapted sports, such as hand-cycling, wheelchair basketball, badminton, table tennis and boccia.

David Himelfarb explains how the patient amenity fund helps patients get access to money for items they need.

The event will also serve as the backdrop to announce the gift of $150,000 by Himelfarb Proszanski – Personal Injury Lawyers to create the Patient Amenities Fund at Lyndhurst Centre. The Fund provides special assistance to low-income patients for the purchase of essential items, and serves to support their recovery and successful re-integration into the community. This population is among the most high-risk of all patients, with very little means to afford important aspects of recovery, such as the purchase of equipment, daily sundry items, transportation, and more. This fund will afford social workers and clinicians an important go-to resource to aid their patients, thereby helping them focus on their health and recovery.

I highly recommend Dan Holland as a disability lawyer. His commitment to my case made the process seamless. Dan's clear communication and ability to simplify complex legal matters made it easy for me to understand every step. He demonstrated genuine concern for my best interests, making him not only a skilled attorney but also someone easy to talk to.Dan’s support extended beyond legal expertise; he alleviated my stress during the long-term disability case. His calm approach and unhurried demeanour ensured that there was no rush in our collaboration. This, coupled with his dedication, made the entire experience more manageable, fostering confidence in his ability to handle the case with meticulous care.I wholeheartedly endorse Dan for anyone seeking a lawyer who not only gets results but also prioritizes your peace of mind.

My mom was involved in an accident impacting her daily life and ability to work. Dan Holland has worked with us during the duration of our case and has been helpful in fighting for her and supporting us, and organizing the things we needed. Our family is incredibly grateful of the outcome Dan was able to obtain for us. I would highly recommend him!

Many thanks to Silene Malhao for settling my husband's TORT claim and to Mena Brar for settling his accident benefits claim. These ladies made themselves available any time we had a question. They were very understanding and compassionate. We were completely taken care of throughout this process. We would definitely recommend this team to friends and family!

We are so happy that we had David and his team represent us. We couldn't have asked for a better team. Not only is David incredibly skilled and experienced, he is kind and compassionate and it is clear how much he cares for his clients. Megan was also absolutely amazing to work with and was always on top of everything and there to answer any questions we had! Thank you!

I'm so happy I chose David as my lawyer. I spoke to a few lawyers before finding David and I noticed majority of them spoke to me in a way that felt demeaning or that my case wasn't big enough or important enough to take. One phone call with David and my opinion on lawyers changed. He spoke to me as an equal and made me feel as if my case was definitely important and that I deserved to be fairly compensated. The whole process was wonderful. From dealing with David's law clerk Ingrid whom is an amazing and kind woman to his legal assistant Melissa whom is another amazing kind and talented young woman. I was so stressed about this case but from day 1 they helped ease that stress and always answered all my questions promptly and respectfully. I couldn't believe David got me to mediation within 6 months of being cut off my LTD and got me a settlement way beyond my expectations. I can't say enough good things about this law firm but I guarantee you that if you need a lawyer to fight for you David is your guy! . Believe me when I say this is the law firm for anyone dealing with personal injuries especially LTD denial claims. Thank you so much to David, Ingrid and Melissa you truly don't know how much I appreciate all you did for me and how this will help me get back on track with my life. Keep helping others you guys are doing amazing work! I wish you all the best!

I sustained a relatively painful injury, affecting me long term.I wouldn't otherwise had pursued it, as it involved a relatively large corporation, but felt it necessary to do so. However, many lawyers were daunted, with one, who actually referred me to HIMPRO.I was connected with Dan Holland, who reviewed the case, provided with me realistic expectations, sound advice and had a willingness to move forward and represent me.His calm and professional demeanor, brought me to a place of reassurance. His ease in addressing all facets of this process, clearly demonstrated a wealth of experience. There was never any hesitation, when being challenged, and felt my best interest was always in the forefront.This case has since been resolved, to my complete satisfaction.Without reservation, HIMPRO (and Dan Holland, in particular), would be the only firm I would recommend for these type of cases.
