BDIW Law is proud to offer its Car Accidents and Legal Procedure Scholarship, worth $2,500, to incoming and current college students. This scholarship requires students to think critically about how insurance providers and related parties within their states assign liability after a car accident.
BDIW Law hopes that, in encouraging students to engage with their state’s civic statutes, students will develop a more comprehensive understanding of the role negligence can play in roadway accidents. In turn, the firm hopes that this scholarship will encourage students’ critical thoughts about the law as well as their increased diligence on the road.
The deadline for Car Accidents and Legal Procedure Scholarship applications is October 15, 2023. BDIW Law looks forward to reading students’ scholarships and helping the lucky winner achieve their academic goals.
