The Perils of a Slip and Fall

One of the most common kinds of personal injury cases are known as “slip and fall” cases, which are exactly what they sound like: someone walks on a slippery or otherwise treacherous surface, falls, and hurts themselves. The simple nature of a slip and fall makes them sound unimportant, but in truth, they can cause a lot of problems for victims. Here are just some of the issues that can arise from a slip and fall accident. Continue reading “The Perils of a Slip and Fall”

Personal Injury Settlement

When you are injured due to the negligence of another, you are entitled to compensation for your damages.  With that being said, getting the compensation you deserve may be a long drawn out process.  Following the initial event leading to your damages, you may be offered a settlement to avoid litigation.  Knowing when and how to properly accept a personal injury settlement is the key to receiving the full compensation you deserve.

Parking Lot Accidents

Long Island residents spend a lot of their time in parking lots.  Whether it is for work, shopping, the doctor’s office, or even for school, Long Island residents find themselves navigating a parking lot in a car or on foot.  Unfortunately, due to the crowded nature of parking lots, sometimes accidents occur, resulting in personal injuries.

Medical Negligence During Birth Can Result in Substantial Long-Term Care Costs

More commonly, children are suffering birth injuries that may affect the rest of his or her life. Oftentimes, these injuries will result in significant long-term care needs, which may be costly.  Usually, the average family is unable to cover the cost of long-term care needs for their child.  For this reason, it is important to remember that birth-related injuries might give rise to a claim of action for medical malpractice, which can allow a person to recover compensation for long-term care needs. Having a child with a birth-related injury can be stressful, however, speaking with an experienced medical malpractice and personal injury attorney may help ease future hardships.

What to do if You Have Been Injured in a Bicycle Accident

As the weather warms, bicycles become a more popular form of transportation and leisurely activity. However, with the increased use of bicycles comes an increased risk of injury as well. Bicycle accidents may be the result of many different circumstances, such as poor road or sidewalk conditions, negligent drivers, or careless pedestrians and fellow cyclists. In some cases, the state, county or municipality can be held responsible for failing to provide safe roadway conditions. In addition, negligent drivers, pedestrians, and fellow cyclists, can be held responsible for the injuries sustained from a bicycle accident if their actions caused the accident.

Another Recall in the Automobile Industry

Recently, Toyota Motor Company recalled over 656,800 vehicles involving both Toyota and Lexus models that were produced between May 2015 and March 2016. According to Toyota, the recall was due to a defective electrical issue that did not allow airbags to inflate during a crash. Over time, the electrical circuit would lead to the front and side airbag warning lights turning on, which would prevent the bags from deploying. The failure of the airbags to deploy in a crash could result in serious injuries or even death.
