McCready Law Scholarship

Michael McCready is a family man by default. Being a family man, Michael stays very involved in his children’s lives, and as they have grown, he has seen the massive impact cyberbullying can have on individuals, their friends, and especially their peers. Cyberbullying is much more comprehensive than what we consider “traditional” bullying. With the copious amount of technology at our fingertips, children are gaining access to devices and social forums at a much younger age. This enables cyberbullying to affect children and teenagers 24/7 on a variety of media platforms, not just in your immediate community but in online communities where participants are from all over the world. Everyone can help prevent cyberbullying by raising awareness. The personal injury attorneys at McCready Law have established a scholarship in the amount of $1,000 for a student who is passionate about this issue. Cyberbullying is prevalent and at times can seem unstoppable, so how can we effectively raise awareness to promote prevention?
