Pro Bono & Philanthropy

In a Federal Court pro-bono case, Mr. Zymet represented an incarcerated, sick man afflicted with stage-four cancer, who was in jail for over two years, pre-trial, and alleged being deprived of medical care, including but not limited to the failure of the jail to administer pain medication, and bring him to his chemotherapy and radiation treatments as prescribed by his oncologist. Through Mr. Zymet's efforts, along with his colleagues' and even his adversaries', the plaintiff, among other things, was released from jail so he can be with his family and face his battle with cancer as a free man.
