Khader v. (DUI Accident Case)

Dallas trial lawyer Charla Aldous represented the family of Abdallah Khader, a young boy who was seriously injured in an accident caused by a repeat-offending drunk driver.

Charla Aldous: I'll never forget it - I was at my home and I joined Facebook because my kids are in college and I wanted to keep up with them. Of course they wouldn't friend me, but, nevertheless, I'm on Facebook. I was scrolling through one night before I was going to sleep and there was a picture on Luna Khader's Facebook page of the van that they had just purchased for Abdallah, which was a special needs van that they could transport him and take him around - he had never been on a road trip with the family. And the post said, "Thank you God for our hero Charla Aldous who made this possible." Things like that, it just doesn't get much better. I literally just stared at it thinking, "You know, it's worth it." The long hours, the emotional rollercoaster is worth it when you can really make a difference in people's lives who have suffered such a horrible tragedy.
