Suing When You’re Injured By Debris Or Items Left On The Road
If you’re driving and you hit debris, garbage, or an item on the road that shouldn’t be there, you may be thinking that you’re out of luck—even if you’re injured, it’s a piece of debris that injured you, not a person. But that’s not true. Common sense tells you that debris or items don’t… Read More »
A Simple Design Change Could Prevent A Lot Of Accidents
What if someone discovered that a minor, seemingly innocuous change in a vehicle’s design, that involves no technology, could reduce turn signals and save lives, and that the change would cost buyers next to nothing additional?

Liability When Installers And Delivery Drivers Attack People In Their Homes
This happens all the time: You order something from online, or from a physical big box retailer.

Certainly, there is less risk of tripping than with stairs, and unlike an elevator, which can fall or which can trap us inside, an escalator presents no such danger. But… Read More »
Maybe Minivan Safety Isn’t What You Thought It Was
When we think of vehicles that are safe for our families, particularly our children, we often think of minivans. They’re large, roomy, heavier, and protect occupants better than a standard vehicle. But recent testing shows that this may not be the case, and in fact, minivans may actually be more dangerous than other types… Read More »
Legal Issues In Multi Car Pile Up Accidents
In a typical car accident there are two cars involved. Usually, one is the vehicle at fault, having caused the accident, and the other is the one that is innocent, although there is some middle ground when both driver and victim have some blame for the accident. But then there are those accidents that… Read More »
Can You Be Compensated For Road Rage Accidents?
Usually, car accidents are just that: accidents. But sometimes, they are a little bit more. Sometimes, they can have an element of anger, hostility or threats. We’re talking about road rage, which often goes beyond just aggressive words or gestures, and can morph very quickly into a car accident or collision. Identifying Road Rage… Read More »
What Happens When An Insurance Company Doesn’t Want To Insure A Negligent Driver?
If you are in an accident with an individual—usually, where an individual driver has caused an accident—and you are injured, you sue the other driver.
