Florida’s large percentage of folks over the age of 65 has highlighted a too common problem: elder abuse in nursing homes and other facilities.  Originally a defense lawyer, Tom Edwards of Jacksonville changed sides to help this needy and helpless population.  Along the way, he’s built a niche personal injury practice, with many victories. He’s also a champion of legal ethics, helping write the code of ethics for judges’ conduct.  Among his many honors is the B.J. Masterson award from the Florida Justice Association for professionalism and high ethical standards.  He’s also a past president of the FJA and winner of many other FJA awards.Tom Edwards sat down with Florida Justice Association Radio host Harvey Bennett in December 2017 to share what it’s like to go against big corporations, the sacrifices he’s had to make along the way, and how his big game hunting skills have helped him in the courtroom.Show Notes: Tom Edwards is with Edwards & Ragatz law firm in Jacksonville, Florida – www.edwardsragatz.co
