It's not how many times you fall ,But how many times you get up that Defines a Person

Great, uplifting story in the March 31st, 2011 New York Law Journal about Joel Silberman a landlord-tenant lawyer who had been suspended after his "life spiralled out of control " due to a personal drug addiction. He actually pled guilty to a drug felony, but then attended an 18 month drug rehab program and the felony conviction was vacated . He has been drug free for more than 6 years and counsels drug addicted individuals. After a long hard battle both personally and professionally, he was recently reinstated by the Appellate Division, First Department. Mr. Silberman, good for you. Best of luck!
