Nineteen years ago, as she was driving in her car to visit her mother in Philadelphia from her home in Willingboro, N.J., Lillie R. Daniels\u2019 vehicle was struck by a speeding ambulance in an intersection. Thus began a lawyer-client relationship she has had with Dean I. Weitzman ever since. Mrs. Daniels, now 67, a retired hospital worker, called Weitzman after she was given his card by a stranger. \u201cWhat impressed me most is that I called him and told him I wanted to come and see him\u201d to talk about the crash. \u201cHe said \u2018no, you were in an accident and I will come and see you.\u2019 He came the next day.\u201d He handled the case for her and the settlement. \u201cWe\u2019ve been friends ever since,\u201d Mrs. Daniels said. \u201cI call him if I have a problem, and he calls me back. I tell him you are like my son.\u201d \u201cI never had to go anywhere on my own,\u201d including medical visits and legal proceedings, she said. \u201cHe always said \u2018I will pick you up and take you there.\u2019 That\u2019s what I love about him.\u201d In 2002, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. The following year, after her treatment, she told Weitzman that she wanted to create an organization, The Bread of Life Foundation, to help women with breast cancer and he helped her with the paperwork and provided legal advice \u2013 on a pro bono basis. \u201cHe did a lot of leg work for me,\u201d she said. \u201cHe did it all.\u201d In 2005, the group honored Weitzman at its annual luncheon. Last October, he provided five $100 gift cards to cancer survivors at a foundation fundraiser. \u201cThey are a law firm that cares\u201d Mrs. Daniels said. \u201cThey are loving. They are compassionate. They are honest and anything they can do for you they will do. They will go the extra mile.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
