Slip and Falls

If you are injured due to a slip and fall, there are a few steps that necessary to have a valid claim.  First, you need to make sure that whoever is in control or owns the property where the fall took place knows that you fell.  You should complete an incident report if it is a store or public place.  If you fall in a home, make sure that you let the homeowner know of the accident and obtain the homeowner's insurance coverage information if applicable.
Second, if there are witnesses make sure that either you or the owner obtains the witnesses names and contact information immediately. Third, you should seek medical attention as soon as a symptom or condition from the fall occurs.

Dog Bites

Dog bites are making national news due to the aggressiveness of certain breeds.  If you or a love one become a victim of a dog attack you should first contact 911 for medical assistance and for the local animal control agency.  An investigation will occur, and the dog could be quarantined if captured.  You may also have to submit to a series of vaccinations and other medical procedures depending on the severity of the incident.

Unfortunately, car crashes happen everyday even for careful drivers. Defensive driving these days is a must but it cannot avoid all accidents. Some accidents are simple fender benders, while others are a complete disaster.   However, most traffic accidents fall somewhere in between the two extremes.  Regardless of the severity of an accident, all drivers must stop and remain at the scene.  After stopping, you should check to see if anyone is hurt.   Regardless of who was at fault, knowing your rights and obligations when a car crash occurs helps reduce the stress and problems you may have dealing with an automobile accident.
