Is WHIPLASH only related to low-speed, rear end crashes? The answer is definitely NO!

Head and neck injuries are common and can occur with or without direct impact with interior vehicle components, such as windows or headrests. Other frequent injuries include the exacerbation of pre-existing musculoskeletal disorders affecting the spine, pelvis, and upper and lower extremities. Understanding vehicle dynamics is crucial for proving the mechanism of injury....

Did they Slip or Trip? The injuries tell the story.

Injuries from slips and trips help to define the mechanism of injury.  Slips most often injure the back of the body.  Trips most often injure the front of the body.  Additional factors always play a role.  Here is a list of common injuries from Slipping or Tripping....

Cases Involving Personal Injury Occur Everyday. When You Are Asked to Lead the Legal Effort, Are You Asking These Questions?

  • Can a person be injured that way?
  • Was the injury pre-existing?
  • What were the proximate causes of injury?
  • Was there a defect in design, manufacture, or installation of the device responsible for the injury?
  • Could the injury been prevented?
  • Was a specific weaponed used
