    Worker’s Comp – Lawyer or Call Center? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    As a professional, I want injured people to be represented by a good lawyer and for the legal system to work as it should for injured workers. Let’s face facts, the Alabama Workers’ Compensation Act does not favor the worker. In some attempt at fairness, there are trade-offs in the Comp Act, such as no preexisting conditions and liability is not an issue. What that means is that the employer cannot argue (although they try) that the injured employee had a preexisting condition. If they were

    When The Heat Becomes Dangerous At Work (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A hot day at work can turn dangerous faster than most people think. A worker may start with a headache, dizziness, or nausea and, in a short time, face a true medical emergency. Heat stroke can cause confusion, loss of consciousness, seizures, and dangerously high body temperature. When those signs appear, immediate cooling and a 911 call may be necessary.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When you pay an insurance premium every month, you expect your insurance company to be there when you need it. That is the deal. You pay them. They guarantee to protect you when something goes wrong. Newly released court documents involving a prominent National Insurance Company raise serious questions about whether it has kept that promise for some policyholders. A judge recently allowed 31 internal Company documents to become public after they had been kept confidential under a protective orde

    Can I Sue For Emotional Distress? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Sure, you can. You probably want to know if you can win a claim for emotional distress and the answer is that these claims are in many ways limited. Certainly, pain and suffering are forms of emotional distress and recovery may be had whether that was in the past or even if they will continue into the future. The jury may consider physical and mental suffering caused by the injury. Generally mental anguish is not an element of damage arising from a breach of contract. Where somebody’s conduct

    Back-To-School Traffic Is Back (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The first week of school can feel like controlled chaos. Someone cannot find a shoe. A lunch was left on the counter. Everyone seems to be running five minutes behind. Then that chaos reaches the road. New destinations, drivers, and distractions. Traffic patterns change almost overnight. Roads that were predictable during the summer suddenly fill with school buses, parents learning new drop-off lines, teenagers driving themselves to school, and children walking or riding bicycles near the roadwa
