Charity & Community
At Claggett and Associates, philanthropy is a major part of our culture. The Las Vegas community has always been a great place for a small business like Claggett and Associates so therefore, it’s time we show our support and give back. A portion of our proceeds from our personal injury cases are donated to various local charitable organizations. Our clients also get to select their own charity they would like us to donate to on their behalf. Not only are our clients satisfied with the results they get from their case, they feel good knowing that they’ve been able to help others in need.
Below is a recent quote from Jay Nickels, Secretary of Nevada Child Seekers:
“This past spring I asked Sean if he would be willing to help out Nevada Child Seekers with a donation for our annual 5K Dash and Stroll. I mentioned to him that if he could make a donation and help me reach an amount I set I would shave my head. Sean came back with the attitude of whatever you need we can help. Needless to say Sean’s generosity helped me reach my goal and with his help Nevada Child Seekers had another outstanding Event. Nevada Child Seekers is very appreciative of Sean’s willingness to give back to the Community and help out Non-profit organizations like ours.”
