On March 1, 2011, ex-doctor Raymond Cook was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter, felony death by motor vehicle and driving while impaired in September of 2009, which lead to the death of Elena Shapiro, a dancer for the Carolina Ballet. While Cook is serving up to four years in prison for the deadly DWI crash, the former doctor has been taking part in a work- and home-release program.

David Daggett spoke with WFMY CBS 2 earlier this week to explain how the ex-doctor is getting “out of jail” during the day for work-related reasons as well as getting 40 hours a month at home with his family.

Thank You for Everything

I would like to take time to thank the staff at Daggett Shuler Attorneys at Law. To Megan Youngblood for helping me get my disability started; thank you so much for everything!

Outstanding

My experience with Daggett Shuler was amazing. James Cohn was the attorney I worked with for my workers’ compensation claim. He is an awesome attorney. I was injured while on the job performing my duties with a local company, and the next Monday was fired because they did not want to pay my medical bills. After going to Daggett Shuler they looked after me throughout the process. The Daggett Shuler team was outstanding in their professionalism and empathy.

I was expecting it to take years to get disability and Daggett Shuler went above and beyond to get it as quickly as possible. They got the disability awarded in 6 maybe 8 months tops. I would recommend Daggett Shuler to anyone filing a disability claim. These guys will have your back for sure!

Couldn't Be More Pleased

A wonderful law firm who personally takes care of your issues. Workers’ Comp can be a nightmare in so many ways so it is good to have an exceptional attorney with that experience guiding you through the process. Griff Shuler was my attorney and I couldn’t be more pleased with the way he handled my case.
