Jeffrey M. Lipman is a Des Moines, Iowa-based attorney who, among other areas, specializes in bed bug litigation. Last year he was a participant in Clark Pest Control multi-city bed bug tour, where his presentation “Can Ignoring the Bed Bug Problem Put You in Legal Jeopardy?”
wowed audiences with a graphic sequential illustration that spelled out just how quickly and extensively bed bugs can take over two towers of a residential complex, and what kind of issues are raised when their spreading infestation is not addressed. He holds a Bachelor’s Degree from University of Arizona, a Juris Doctorate from William Mitchell College of Law, and is a graduate of the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College.

Roger crawford
Roger Crawford was born with the kind of physical challenges that would bar almost anyone from succeeding, much less becoming an NCAA Division I athlete and United States Tennis Association-certified champion. Yet he overcame those difficulties to excel in sport at Loyola Marymount University. Crawford later distilled what he learned about maintaining focus to move through adversity and break through limitations, and as “America’s Possibility Coach,” he communicates those strengths and inspires audiences to reach higher with the Possibility Principles: Purpose, Perspective, Precision and Perseverance. His story was featured in the best-selling book Chicken Soup for the Soul, and was portrayed in the Emmy Award-winning NBC-TV movie In a New Light.
We thank each and every one of you for your continued support of Clark Pest Control.
