  • Do You Want to Settle Your Auto Accident Case?
    I hear a lot of talk about taking an auto accident claim to trial by clients and other attorneys. What if you don’t want to? Some clients will say at the outset that they don’t want to go to trial, while others say a jury trial is how they want the matter resolved. The fact […]
  • Avastin: Causing Blindness?
    A recent report in the New York Times, More Reports of Avastin Causing Blindness, is troubling.  As the report recounts, patients who were being treated with the drug Avastin for eye disease have been blinded.

  • Insurance Bad Faith: Current Law Protects Consumers
    Insurance companies think immunity is good for them. No surprise.  Insurance companies and large corporations have been seeking corporate amnesty from the legislature for years.

  • Injury Lawsuits: What They Are and What They’re Not
    There are many misconceptions about what injury lawsuits are, and what they’re not.  Looking at a personal injury lawsuit antiseptically, it is a civil complaint filed in court alleging that one party has injured or damaged another through any number of means. The court becomes the resolver, the arbiter, of the outcome. The court functions […]

  • Florida Car-Truck Accidents Are Different From Auto Wrecks
    Car accidents involving cars and other small vehicles can cause serious injuries or wrongful death to the drivers involved.  These chances of survival, however, are far greater than in those traffic crashes involving commercial vehicles.  Accidents which involve semi trucks, also known as 18 wheelers, tractor trailers, or big rigs are typically far worse tha […]
