From the minute you call the Mike Slocumb Law Firm, our staff gets to work quickly on your case. Your case will be assigned to an attorney and a case manager whose sole responsibility is moving your case forward. Moving your case towards settlement. And building your case from a damages perspective so that when we present your case to the insurance company, we ensure maximum compensation for your case. You want to put the insurance company in a position to make a decision. And until your case is ready for trial there’s no decision for the insurance company to make.
Our client calls less then a week after she’s been discharged from the hospital. She has a traumatic brain injury, with in a day or two we come to the understanding that it was a commercial vehical that had caused the accident. We immediately sent notification to the insurance company and to the defendant to not destroy their vehicle. Because we wanted to download the airbag control module.
When you’re dealing with a case which has severe injuries often times the air bag control module can give you a reconstruction of how the accident actually happened. Let me explain. Air bag control module will tell you up to five seconds before the accident happened how fast the driver was going, whether the vehicle had the break circuit switch applied, what were the RPM’s of the vehicle, did the driver have the accelerator pressed, and all of those items (the speed, the RPM, and the break switch) are important in understanding what the drivers actions were leading up to the collision.
None of this would have been possible if a lawsuit had not been filed. The insurance company would have likely destroyed the vehicle, it would have been sent to an impound yard and then it would have been shipped for scrap metal. We also immediately began requesting deposition dates. The reason we request deposition dates is because it moves the case closer to being ready to go to trial.
The sooner we can get the case ready for trial, the better the client is going to be because it puts the insurance company in a position to make a decision. With in three to four months we have downloaded the airbag control module. We have initiated taking depositions, we deposed the defendants, we’ve deposed the driver, we’ve deposed the physicians that treated our client and we’re ready for trial.
The insurance company made a decision to settle the case for the policy limits of two million dollars.

Hartford CT High Speed Motorcycle Crash Fatality Video Post
This fatal accident was devastating and our client suffered severe injuries to her upper body. She was fortunate and it was miraculous that she wasn’t killed. She had some soft tissue injuries to her neck area, had some damage to her ribs, primarily though she sustained massive tissue loss from her upper arm. Major pieces of muscle pieces of her upper arm were missing or destroyed. Multiple reconstructive surgeries were required to regain some use of her arm.
Legal News Requirements for Child Car Safety Seats to Change in 2014 Fayetteville North Carolina
For many car seats, parents have had two options: Using the seat belt in the car to attach the seat, or using the LATCH system – Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children – which most parents consider easier to use for installing the seat.
However, with a new federal rule that will take affect in early 2014, child safety-seat manufacturers will be required to tell parents not to use the LATCH system if their child and the car seat have a combined weight of 65 pounds or more.
Many car seats weigh as much as 15 to 33 pounds, so children as light as 32 pounds or as young as 3 may be affected by this new rule. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children remain in car seats with harnesses until they are 8.
The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers petitioned for the new rule because the strength of the lower tethers was not enough to assure the safety of heavier children. Other safety advocates say that seat belts need to be strengthened to reduce the risk of njuries to children.
Other problems have been noted with the LATCH system.
Last summer, a study by Safe Kids Worldwide found that community checkpoint technicians were only using lower anchors to attach child safety seats about 30 percent of the time, and parents were only using the top tethers about 30 percent of the time.
West Virginia Job Injuries Can Mean Ambulance, Hospital Care and Workers’ Comp Coverage
Posted by Lawyer in Dangerous Drugs on May 3, 2012
It can be hard to admit when you’ve been injured at work, particularly if it’s a slow-developing injury or one that’s not too common. Injuries that are clearly very serious-such as a spinal cord injury or fall from a ladder broken back on a construction site job, brain injury from a company car accident or a bad burn from a restaurant job or working with toxic chemicals-are usually attended to immediately, often requiring an ambulance and sometimes hospitalization.
At Recht Law Offices, the Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia workers compensation lawyers know it’s all too easy for loyal, hard-working employees to be stoic and not complain about pain, especially when it’s from gradually worsening type of injury. These injuries can be equally debilitating and are often musculoskeletal, requiring longer rehabilitation than more immediately severe injuries, and can mean months of physical therapy or occupational therapy for full recovery.
If you or someone you love was injured at work, or if you lost a loved one, in a wrongful death job accident, you need the aggressive legal representation of Ohio, Pennsylvania or West Virginia personal injury lawyer Recht Law Office. We fight for justice. Call Recht Law Offices at 1-800-HURTLINE or complete the online contact form.
Such injuries include common hospital worker injuries such as muscle strains from heavy lifting, repetitive stress injury and carpal tunnel syndrome, which are well-known office job and assembly-line injuries, and knee injuries from going up and down stairs and ladders, which is a frequent construction worker injury.
