Substance Abuse Prevention Speaker Victim of Substance Abuse & Prevention Speaker

Pauls 1997 Honda Accord Special Edition , which Paul had just put $350 of work into the day of the accident (thanks to the generosity of Pauls father-in-law visiting from California), which was destroyed in a moment by an inconsiderate drunk driver.

For nearly five months Paul drove numerous rental cars, while battling his insurance company to be financially compensated to purchase a replacement vehicle for his automobile totaled by the negligible drunk driver. Even worse Paul spent days and nights in hospitals and doctors offices receiving medical treatment after the accident for injuries, which still cause him pain and trouble to this day. The added stress and strain medically and financially also negatively effected Pauls marriage as logistically he and his wife shared the one vehicle the drunk driver totaled.

Personally encountering the crooked and fraudulent business practices of tow truck companies, medical professionals, insurance claims adjusters, and car salesmen added additional aggravation and suffering to Pauls life at a time when he was most vulnerable.

Nevertheless Paul persevered and battled through it all to stand tall, becoming a voice of conscience to substance abusers, drunk drivers, they who prey on victims of catastrophic accidents, and those suffering through seasons of tragedy turning their world upside down.
