How Do You Get Confidential Patient Records To Use In Your Case?
We all know that doctors, hospitals, schools, or nursing homes (among other businesses) tend to treat, take care of, or supervise a lot of other people.

Trucking Accidents Have Many Causes
There are seemingly so many trucks on the roads these days, that it is easy to miss the fact that they are even there. We drive side by side with mammoth vehicles, much bigger than our cars.

Negligent Entrustment And Vicarious Liability: Suing Employers For Negligence
When someone does something wrong that causes you an injury, you sue them (assuming you can’t settle the case). That sounds obvious. But what about an entity or a party that wasn’t directly involved in the accident? Often, there are people or companies that can be held liable for your accident, even though they… Read More »
Sprains, Strains And Whiplash: What Are They?
When people are injured in accidents, we often ask if they have any broken bones. If the answer is no, we then assume that the victim is likely not injured, or not seriously injured.
