On Saturday, April 11, 2020, Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers sent 50 pizzas to the Emergency Department at Lakeridge Health Oshawa.
As part of its “Save a Slice” initiative, the pizzas were sent from local Brothers Ristorante in
three deliveries to Lakeridge Health Oshawa to ensure that each shift gets some food. As part of
its inaugural event last Saturday, April 4, the firm ordered 50 pizzas from Lindsay, Ontario
Italian restaurant Pane Vino to the emergency room of Ross Memorial.
“Health care workers are working hard to save the lives of so many of the infected, while
restaurant workers are being left behind as people stay at home,” said Alexander. “We decided to
try to help both at the same time.”
The firm, which helps families going through divorce with a collaborative approach, has also
created a new COVID-19 and Divorce Information Centre to provide answers to common
questions during the pandemic. On the website, Ontario residents can get answers to questions
about how to work remotely with their lawyers, how the pandemic may affect court dates and
even how to avoid sparking a divorce during the stress of quarantine.
With lawyers deemed an essential service, the Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers
remains open, although staffers are working remotely for their safety and the safety of their
clients.
