On September 11,2001, FDNY Battalion Chief Rich Alles responded to the World Trade Center twenty minutes after the second collapse. His assignment entailed the supervision of search and rescue units for the entire two weeks of the operation.  He witnessed untold horrors.  Now retired with the rank of Deputy Chief, Rich helped lobby Congress for the 9/11 Health and Compensation Act (The Zadroga bill).

Still maintaining an active presence at Ground Zero, Rich brings extensive firsthand expertise to any forum relative to 9/11 victims’ benefits.

Chief Alles will be joined on our podcast by Michael Barasch, Esq. of Barasch and McGarry law firm.

Michael has spearheaded the effort for monetary compensation for victims of 9/11. Along with Jon Stewart, Michael has had extraordinary results demanding satisfaction and justice for all affected on that tragic day.

This week’s 9/11 podcast will discuss victims’ eligibility for the plan, along with little-known valuable information for victims and their families who have yet to enroll, and even for victims who have already received compensation.

Please join Mick and Mook on 9/7 for this informative and important podcast.
