Cares for Community
Michael LeRoy is a Florida Lawyer, based in the
Orlando area, who strongly believes that giving
back to the community is a vital part of being in
a community. One way in which Michael LeRoy gives
back to his community is through his charitable
donations. One such charity is the Gleason
Initiative. The Gleason Initiative is a Project
which was founded to assist in many things
related to ALS, including to help to provide
necessary technology and services to people with
ALS and other Neuromuscular diseases, to create a
global conversation about ALS in hopes of
finding a cure for the disease, and to document
those who do not give up following their dreams
because they have the disease. Many other

Principles of
System
Michael LeRoy understands that underlying the
American justice system is the idea made famous
by famous English Jurist William Blackstone. The
idea that it is better that ten guilty persons
escape than that one innocent suffer. This idea
has been commented upon many times over the years
and it is without doubt one of the key underlying
principles of the U.S. Justice system.
  • However, Blackstone was not the first to speak up
    about this legal precedent. Some of the other
    notable moments were
  • In the Bible, the book of Genesis Abraham is
    supposed to have had a conversation with god, and
    Abraham was attempting to save a city. God agreed
    that if there were any innocent people in the
    city it would not be destroyed.
  • Maimonides was a legal theorist from the 12th
    century which claimed that It was better a
    thousand guilty go free then have one put to
    death.
  • Benjamin Franklin said that it was better that
    100 innocent persons go free then that 1 person
    should suffer.

Michael LeRoy Pushes ALS month
May is ALS awareness month, and Michael LeRoy
wants to remind you to get involve and volunteer
or donate today. Michael LeRoy, who is an Orlando
based lawyer, has been a firm advocate for ALS
for many years and recognizes the value of people
helping. Even when people donate a dollar or two
that is a sign that they understand what ALS is.
Michael LeRoy was inspired by the story of Steve
Gleason, especially after having seen his own
grandfather battle and ultimately succumb to the
disease.
