Toral Garcia Battista was chosen by Newsweek as one of the top twenty leaders in personal injury law.
The firm was featured in the August 22 edition, and was recognized for its leadership in the practice of personal injury law.

The certification, awarded by the Academy of Certified Brain  Injury Specialists (ACBIS), ensures both Kerr and Cinelli are up-to-date on all the latest brain injury matters and are knowledgeable on how best to care for brain injury survivors as they navigate through the continuum of care in both the healthcare industry and the courts. The certification involves testing, over 500 hours of verifiable brain injury experience and other comprehensive requirements, with no exceptions allowed.

“Our certified brain specialists enhance the firm’s leadership in the brain and spinal cord injury field by collaborating with the medical community to ensure our clients receive the best available healthcare and resources,” said Frank Toral, senior partner at Toral Garcia Battista and founder of the Toral Family Foundation. “We are not aware of any other law firm in the state that has brain injury specialists on board to provide this level of meaningful care to survivors and their families.”

As Director of Care Management, Kerr is responsible for providing high-level ongoing care management for the law firm’s clients by serving as a liaison to various members of the healthcare community, such as physicians, social workers, registered nurses, physician assistants, and trauma case/program managers.  In her capacity as Director of Community Relations, Cinelli is charged with linking survivors of a brain or spinal cord injury and their families with resources as well as managing the firm’s extensive community outreach efforts.

ACBIS certification is a nationally recognized credential that demonstrates specific training in brain injury services in a healthcare field. Those certified must show competency in knowledge of brain anatomy, types of brain injuries, the myriad of agencies that deal with such injuries, effective treatments, specialization of issues for children and adolescents, as well as health and medical management and surrounding legal and ethical issues.

Rick Hanson, an incredible champion for all those who live with disabilities, just finished polishing off the latest shining star added to his cause: a Global Accessibility Map. This brand new online rating tool is designed for people with disabilities to help and connect with each other through their daily experiences in public venues, allowing them to evaluate and share the accessibility of restaurants, hotels and other sites.  The Global Accessibility Map, released a few weeks ago, is as an easy-to-use source for people with all varieties of disabilities, including mobility, sight and hearing impairments. Visually impaired users can also access the internet-based map using standard software programs that convert text into audible content.

Similar to sites like Yelp or Urbanspoon, users can sort through reviews by geographic location, type of impairment, kind of place, name, rating level, or any combination, and later return to post reviews and comments. This interactive system allows both users and venue owners to better understand the real world accessibility of a place, rather than just by a theoretical rating.   Imagine arriving somewhere that had described itself online as “fully acessible,” only to realize that there are 3 steps between you and the front door. Daryl Rock, the chairman of the Accessibility Map’s steering committee and himself a wheelchair user, notes that all too often “there is a disconnect between the venue owner’s perception and the consumer’s assessment of reality.” Through the Global Accessibility Map, says Rock, “we have the opportunity to take matters into our own hands.”

The Map was introduced this year as part of the 25th anniversary of the Man In Motion World Tour, and represents, as its website describes, “a unique call to action designed to focus on improving physical access to the public built environment in communities around the world.” The opportunity to not only search, but to leave reviews and comment on venues, enables all people to make informed decisions on everyday activities.  Rick Hansen, the foundation’s creator, knows how important this is better than anyone.  At the age of 15, he was paralyzed in a car crash, and since then, his enthusiasm and devotion towards disability awareness has been unparalleled.  Most famously, he is known for his Man in Motion World Tour, a 26-month, 34-country trek he took in a wheelchair 25 years ago to raise money and awareness for spinal cord injury research.
