A Snippet From Jessica’s Essay
I am currently an MBA student at Northern Kentucky University and began my college career in 2006 when I graduated high school. Popularity among my peers, athletic accomplishments, and academic accolades had always come naturally to me. From all external accounts, I appeared to be confident and successful even though I was suffering from what I later realized was the disease of addiction. It took me several attempts to gain awareness, courage, and humility to finally address this aspect of my personality.
At Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers, we understand what it means to be successful. A successful claim or lawsuit can help an injury victim recover their medical bills and lost wages. A settlement or verdict can allow them access to the treatment they will need on their road to recovery.
We know that in order to be successful, you have to work at it. We are proud to honor a student who is carving out their definition of success with our Being Successful Scholarship. Eligible applicants can submit their essays and application materials through the form on this website, and we will award the winner with a $2,500 academic-based scholarship.
