Trip and fall accidents are ever-present dangers no matter where people go, representing one of the most common causes of personal injury cases. When people are shopping at a store or visiting another place of business, the owners and operators have a duty of care to ensure their customers are reasonably safe.

The best way to determine whether a person needs to hire a work injury lawyer is to schedule a free consultation. When a workplace injury happens, people will offer all kinds of advice. A co-worker might recommend calling a workers’ comp lawyer right away because he didn’t, and got the run around with his claim.

Statistics for 2014 are in, and the news for traffic-related fatalities is not good. Newly released data from the Nevada Department of Public Safety shows that, for 12 of Nevada’s 17 counties, traffic fatalities have increased in the past year. While not every county shows an increase, the number for the state is higher, with 18 more deaths than 2013. This signals a reverse in the downward trend that had held steady since 2006.

If you’ve ever considered asking for legal help but feel too intimidated, you’re not alone. Most people try to solve their problems on their own because they may have the wrong idea about hiring a lawyer.
