From the DeWitt Digest ... ... to the JustCallMoe Journal
NEW YEAR, NEW LOOK, SAME MOE
As the calendar flips to 2025, we are shaking things up with a brand-new look and a fresh perspective! Say goodbye to the DeWitt Digest and hello to the new JustCallMoe Journal. While DeWitt Law remains your trusted family law firm, our newsletter is shifting gears to focus on our personal injury work with JustCallMoe. Most clients seek help after accidents and injuries, so we decided it was time for a media makeover!
We always want this newsletter to serve you and provide value and education every time it hits your mailbox, so we’ll include even more tips, resources, and updates tailored to your needs and most pressing questions. We’re still the same firm and the same Moe; we’ve just swapped out a few colors and will fill the pages with exciting new content to keep you informed and entertained this year.
Along with providing representation for you if you are hurt in an accident, we have a wealth of educational resources on our website and social media pages. If you don’t know where to start with your claim or feel lost after a rideshare accident, check out JustCallMoe’s blog, videos, and free e-books. We even offer a VIP program with exclusive concierge service to help with legal questions, discounts on our merch, complimentary gifts, and access to exciting community VIP events. JustCallMoe has always worked to do good in the community and give back through fundraising events and partnerships with local organizations. You can learn about some of them through the newsletter, like our recent Comedy Jam and Celebrity Bowl-o-Rama, and we also have a page dedicated to the work we do outside the firm in the community. JustCallMoe is a proud sponsor of the Orlando Solar Bears, Orlando’s ECHL hockey team. Next time you head to a game, look for our table,

From Aggravated Assault to Dental Drama Runaway ‘Dentist’ Dodges Detection
While TikTok may be a go-to app for funny videos, it’s probably not the best way to find a new dentist. Last year, Texas-based “dentist” Nikki Calloway used TikTok to generate buzz for her business, ISmilez Cosmetic Designz. The campaign attracted new patients, including one who scheduled an appointment after receiving a $1,350 quote from Calloway to have 16 teeth removed, replaced, and a bridge added. There was only one problem: “Nikki Calloway” wasn’t a licensed dentist. In reality, she was Juanetta Solomon, a notorious local felon with a long history of crime. The botched dental surgery left the patient dizzy, bleeding, and with a tooth that fell out shortly afterward — and prompted Solomon to go on the run from the law. According to authorities, Solomon had operated her “dentistry” office while out on bond for a weapons charge. Her past offenses include assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and unlawful carrying of a weapon by a felon — and that was just in 2023 and 2024! In one infamous case, she was accused of
shooting at her boyfriend’s former girlfriend. Her record also includes a December 2016 conviction for the delivery of a controlled substance.
“Juanetta Solomon is the definition of a career habitual offender,” commented Andy Kahan, director of victim services and advocacy at Crime Stoppers of Houston, in a story on Katy Magazine Online. “She’s been in prison multiple times in different counties, so it’s no surprise she is once again wanted. Her latest offense is extremely brutal, pretending to be a dentist [and] causing undue pain and stress on individuals, so the quicker we get her back in custody, the less anyone has to suffer as a result of her criminal conduct.” Law enforcement was still attempting to capture Solomon at the time of this writing. Her bizarre turn as a “dentist” serves as a chilling reminder that Google and a little research — not social media — are the best tools to determine whether your chosen provider is a professional or someone destined for prison.

Moe’s First Couch Racing Adventure Reclining to the Finish Line
Get ready to speed up your sofas and rev your recliners!
The JustCallMoe team recently put our pedals to the upholstery and went full throttle on the throw pillows as first-time participants in one of Sanford’s most beloved community events. The Sofas and Suds couch race, hosted by our friends A Mediocre Time with Tom & Dan Podcast, was held on Nov. 24 and brought together local businesses for some friendly, competitive couch racing, beer chasing, and fun. Now in its 12th year, this race challenges teams to deck out a couch or recliner and see who can launch their loveseat into first place. We had a blast building our ultimate racing sofa and watching everyone recline to the finish line. Although we didn’t win, we count a day filled with community, fun, craft beer, and creativity as the ultimate consolation prize! Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer on couches from the sidelines and capture the action in excellent videos and photos. We’re also grateful to the other local businesses, including Tuffy’s Music Box & Lounge, HCA Florida Lake Monroe Hospital, City of Sanford, and more, for wowing us with your creative racing furniture. You gave us a run for our ottomans! If you want to see more of the racing action, check out our Facebook and Instagram pages for more photos. As for us, we’re already brainstorming ways to take our sofa to the next level for the next race. But, until then, you can find us lounging in victory over all the memories and laughs we shared at this wonderful community event. Whether we’re in the courtroom, on the race track, or on a comfy couch, JustCallMoe is always ready to roll!

Phone available 24/7 // Office hours: Monday–Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m. RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED
Workers usually go on strike to improve wages and working conditions. Leave it to the French to mount a historic strike for the right to grow a mustache. A full mustache was a prestigious mark of men’s social class in Europe in the early 20th century. Policemen were required to grow them to project authority and masculinity. Waiters rebelled when restaurant owners forced servers to shave their faces clean as a sign of their lower-class social status. During the dinner hour on April 17, 1907, an estimated 500 servers stopped dishing food, took off their aprons, and walked out, clustering on the street as diners looked on. The waiters also demanded a share of diners’ tips and the right to take one day off a week. They had support in Parliament, where one socialist deputy proposed a bill to outlaw mustache bans (which also applied to domestic servants and priests). The deputy called the restaurants’ mustache rule “grotesque and humiliating.” After 16 days, restaurant owners caved to servers’ mustache demands and implemented
a fairer pay structure. The waiters, however, lost their bid for one day off each week. The French have long been famously quick to stage work stoppages. At 112 days on average, the country leads the industrialized West in days lost to strikes each year. The nation’s strike culture is linked to its history of revolt, including the 1789 French Revolution. Withholding one’s labor is a constitutional right in France, whether you are a union member or not. And the mustache had long been a mark of status in Europe. Centuries earlier, Germany only permitted soldiers who had distinguished themselves in battle to grow mustaches. In France, the military requirement to wear mustaches became so strict that soldiers who couldn’t grow one had to wear a fake mustache. No wonder the French waiters took their facial hair so seriously. Being required to shave relegated them to the domestic servant class. As one French newspaper of the time declared, the waiters’ victory secured the right “to finally show that they are men, free men … who can wear at their ease this symbol of the all-powerful male, the mustache. Oh! The beautiful independence!”
