"I am pleased to invite you to meet my friend, and a real life super-hero, Jan Schlichtmann, at Walt Disney World's Grand Floridian Hotel. 

Jan's representation of both children and the environment has had a profound impact on my life as a lawyer and as a father.  He has been an inspiration to me and many others. 

Come and have coffee with Jan at 8:00 A.M. (no charge) or hear the stirring presentation about his famous legal battle on behalf of the Woburn, Massachusetts families at noon at the Florida Justice Association's Annual Convention (reservations required)".

 

Mr. Schlichtmann received national recognition for his representation of eight Woburn, Massachusetts families against W.R. Grace and Beatrice Foods for the contamination of the Woburn City water supply.

The groundbreaking nature of the Woburn case and Mr. Schlichtmann's work in it was chronicled in the national bestseller, "A Civil Action" that became a major motion picture starring John Travolta as Mr. Schlichtmann.
