Local attorney Doug Landau was joined by school staff and members of the Town of Herndon police department to teach Herndon Elementary School sixth graders about brain injury prevention.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Herndon Elementary School sixth grade was buzzing with excitement on a recent spring afternoon.<\/p>\n

\"Doug
Landau and his team fitted each student with his or her own brand new bike helmet after explaining the importance of bike safety.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As the students filed into the gymnasium, they were greeted by huge cardboard boxes, audiovisual presentation equipment, and members of the Town of Herndon police force.<\/p>\n

Local lawyer Doug Landau was there too.\u00a0 Landau — dressed not in a pinstripe suit, but in the Team USA uniform — was there to educate the students about their brain in the hopes that he could protect them from unnecessary injury.<\/p>\n

After explaining how to avoid needless brain injury by wearing a helmet each and every time they get on a bike, skateboard, rollerboard, etc.,\u00a0 Landau told his energetic audience that they would each receive their very own helmet, free of charge.\u00a0 Members of the Herndon police, Abrams Landau staff, and school officials were on hand to see that each student’s helmet was carefully fitted.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the labels Landau and the volunteers affixed inside the helmets guarantee that any student whose helmet is cracked in an accident, de-laminated, broken, or not fitting properly would be replaced, at no cost.<\/p>\n

Lawyer Landau has provided helmets to all of the six graders at Herndon Elementary School in the past, as he has done for students in the top grades at Hutcheson Elementary School, Rolling Ridge Elementary School, Guilford Elementary School, and elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Landau feel so strongly about this program that he is willing to go far and wide to protect schoolchildren from preventable concussions and permanent brain injury.<\/p>\n

The Abrams Landau “Putting Lids on the Kids” program is conducted in conjunction with the Virginia Trial Lawyers Foundation, a nonprofit arm of the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Landau stated “I have seen too many clients permanently disabled by preventable traumatic brain injury.\u00a0\u00a0 I myself sustained a double concussion.\u00a0 My recovery took a long time, but was successful because I was able to adhere to a strict rehabilitation protocol with the outstanding team at the Fairfax Family Practice Concussion Clinic.”<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
