Car Accident
Don’t think you’ll never be involved in a car accident because chances are no mater how good a driver you may be, you will have at least one accident during your lifetime. Whether it’s your fault or that of the other driver is irrelevant, but when it happens you want to know what you need to do. Even if it’s only a minor accident involving little or no property damage to your vehicle, you want to make sure you follow the proper steps in case something should show up later that you didn’t see at the time the accident occurred.
Motorcycle Accident
Because of their size, riders are more likely to be injured than someone traveling in a car. One of the reasons is the added protection of the metal surrounding the car as opposed to the open air of the motorcycle ride. In addition, many accidents are caused because there is a lack of respect for motorcyclists. Whether that is the result of some drivers thinking they are “bigger and better” or whether they equate motorcycle riders with the motorcycle gang is difficult to say. Of course, some motorcyclists must take some liability because they often cut off cars because they know they can because of their size.

Truck Accident
One of the worst nightmares for most people is thinking about getting involved in an accident with a truck whether a tractor-trailer, 18-wheeler or other large commercial trucks. These lethal weapons dominate our roads and highways in larger numbers than at any time in the past, and the number of fatal accidents involving tracks has increased approximately ten per cent in the ten year period between 1992 and 2002. The figures may be even higher now but those are the last statistics available currently. In spite of the combined effort of trucking companies and legislators to address roadway safety with these giants, they continue to become involved in deadly accidents at an alarming rate. Unfortunately the passengers who share the road with these vehicles pay the price with their lives.
Brain Injury
Approximately 1.5 million people in the United States suffer the effects of brain injuries each year. The injuries will vary from mild to severe but that doesn’t change the fact that these injuries disrupt daily life, cause the victim to have to depend upon others for daily care and cause an increase in emotional distress for both the victim and his or her family. The medical professionals place brain injuries into two classifications: “Acquired brain injuries” refer to specific medical reasons such as stroke, tumors, meningitis, heart disease or substance abuse. These injuries are in the minority with most brain injuries falling into the “traumatic brain injury” category. These injuries can result from many different causes including a blow to the head, head penetration when one is physically assaulted, because of a fall or a motor vehicle or sports-related injury. Most traumatic brain injuries, or TBIs for short, are the result of a quick acceleration or deceleration of the head, violent shaking (as in shaken baby syndrome) or a blow with enough force to damage the brain.
Slip and Fall Accidents (Premises Liability)
Slip and fall accidents are the most common accidents but yet they are also the most difficult in which to prove liability. With injuries that can range from a simple sprained ankle to that of a spinal cord injury, it can certainly be the traumatic incident for the victim. In fact slip and fall accidents are the leading cause of serious injuries among older Americans who tend to suffer more so than younger people with stronger bones and the ability to recover.
