"During the entire 38 years of my legal career, I have represented clients who are fighting for justice against large corporations and insurance companies, which have unlimited resources. Throughout my career, I have witnessed the Florida Justice Association’s unwavering commitment to leveling the playing field by protecting and promoting the independence of the judiciary and the constitutional right to a jury trial. EAGLE plays a crucial role in each and every legislative session by thwarting the efforts of insurance companies and others who seek to infringe upon the right of every citizen to have their day in court. I have always given my time and resources to join FJA in this honorable fight, because I am EAGLE." — John W. (Jay) Manuel Manuel & Thompson Personal Injury Attorneys ??
