Hiring a Car Wreck Lawyer

If you are injured in a car accident in Mississippi that is not your fault, your insurance company will work to get the at-fault party’s insurance company to cover the cost of the damages to your vehicle and your medical bills. However, you should consider hiring your own car wreck lawyer in order to maximize your recovery against the other driver’s insurance company or against the uninsured motorist coverage.  A personal injury attorney can also help you obtain a recovery for pain and suffering, in addition to getting you a recovery for damages to your vehicle and your medical bills....

18-Wheeler Accident

If you drive on the highway in states such as Mississippi, Louisiana, Colorado, Alabama or Tennessee, then you are used to sharing the road with 18-wheelers and log trucks. And if you are like me, every time I am near one, I hold my breath a bit — and for good reason. 18-wheelers cannot respond to traffic as easily nor stop as fast as regular vehicles. If there are poor weather conditions or the 18-wheelers are improperly maintained, disaster can occur. Also, some drivers can be overworked, untrained, sleepy, inattentive, intoxicated, and the list goes on. There are about 500,000 18-wheeler accidents...
