First Responders Acknowledged by Burwell Nebout
As a sign of gratitude for the first responders who put their lives on the line to assist our clients and community when they are injured, Burwell Nebout issued to all Galveston County law enforcement and fire departments a letter of thanks along with providing these men and women a free will package for them and their families. These first responders put their lives on the line daily to save and care for those injured. Often, many of them work without the legal protection of having a will, power of attorney and power of health care. Burwell Nebout hopes to provide these men and women some security in the management of their affairs in the event that they are injured during the course of their employment.
