Children’s Bike Helmet Program
Utah Personal Injury Lawyers
At Robert J. DeBry & Associates, our primary focus is helping accident victims; however, we strive to prevent accidents before they ever happen. As a result, we sponsor an ongoing children’s helmet safety campaign that provides useful tips for parents and children as well as the opportunity to purchase quality, children’s bike helmets certified by the Consumer Product Safety Commission at a reduced cost of $5 and $8. To pick up a bike helmet and a free cycling safety brochure that includes information on how to properly select and fit a bike helmet, give us a call or stop by one of our two office locations in Salt Lake City or St. George.
