Not all dog owners are careful about restraining their dogs when visitors or workers come to their property. Even dogs that people claim are generally friendly are capable of biting people who do not provoke them. If you were recently bitten by a dog, it is important to understand the potential impact of the bite and what to do next. A dog bite injury can be very serious, and this is true whether the dog is small or large.

Being the victim of a hit and run comes with so many different things to consider and worry about. For instance, if you didn’t get a good look at the person who struck your vehicle, you might be worried that the police won’t be able to find who did it. Or if your car was severely damaged, you’re likely wondering how much it’s going to cost to fix it and who covers it.

Car accidents can happen in so many different ways. On roadways with parking spaces, parking lots, and other areas where a driver might be reversing to accomplish what they need, another vehicle could hit them when they’re backing up. This leads to an accident where both parties could be wondering who was in the wrong and who caused it.

What is a letter of protection? A letter of protection is a document sent by you and your personal injury lawyer to a healthcare provider. The letter guarantees that all of your medical bills will be paid once your personal injury case has been settled. In this article, we’ll look more closely at how a letter of protection (LOP) works in a personal injury case, and how you and your attorney can best work together to determine if an LOP is right for your situation.

After being injured at work, you likely filed a workers’ compensation claim so that you can recover financially for your physical damages. You might have expected your claim to go smoothly and that you would easily get a resolution that you were happy with. However, one of the options for what could happen is that your workers’ comp claim could be denied.

Bus accidents are, fortunately, comparatively rare when measured against car and motorcycle accident statistics. Bus accidents comprise approximately four percent of all auto collisions each year. However, due to factors such as vehicle size and the number of involved victims in a single incident, the results of a bus accident can be more devastating than smaller-scale vehicular crashes. Victims of a bus-involved accident may be left with damages such as medical expenses, auto repair costs, or lost wages. It is important to understand how to protect your rights in the unfortunate event of a bus accident.

Entrusting yourself or your loved one to the care of a nursing home facility should not come with the fear of mistreatment or assault, but studies have shown that approximately one in 10 older adults living in a community environment is a victim of abuse. Elder abuse is a serious and harmful threat to individuals who reside in nursing homes, affecting both the residents themselves and their network of friends and family.

What kind? Or is it a cozy town known for having the best local food? What’s the culture like? What do its inhabitants value and why?

While some people are tempted to associate on-the-job injury with physically intensive occupations such as construction or agriculture, employees who hold office jobs are just as likely to sustain injuries deserving of workers’ compensation. In the difficult period of recovery after injury, it can be overwhelming to make sure that you are taking all the right steps toward being compensated fairly.
