Truck/Big rig accidents
Because of their size and weight, commercial vehicles like semi trucks, vans and other "box truck" cargo carriers are among the most dangerous kinds of automobiles on the crowded streets of New York as well as the major thoroughfares that connect the Big Apple to nearby communities in Westchester County, Putnam County and Rockland County.
While most commercial drivers are good stewards of the road, some are not so diligent. Accidents do happen. Often these wrecks can result serious, permanent injury or even death to those involved.
But just as a crash involving an 18-wheeler or tractor trailer is different than a simple car accident, the court cases that stem from these kinds of incidents can be more complex and time-consuming. If you have been injured or a family member injured or killed in a crash involving a commercial driver or vehicle, you need to find a licensed attorney with experience litigating trucking accidents.
You must find a law firm that will stand up for your rights, won't be intimidated by big insurance companies, corporations and contractors and will aggressively pursue all the financial compensation available in your case.

Road site accident leads to death
A road construction accident in Amenia, New York, left one worker dead on Wednesday, July 29. The man, a New York resident, was operating an Ingersoll-Rand asphalt roller when he fell off of the piece of heavy machinery and was then hit by the construction equipment.
New York State Troopers identified the New York construction accident victim as 23-year-old Donald Flood III of Wassaic, New York. The accident took place early on Wednesday afternoon in Dutchess County, about 60 miles from Albany, New York, near 41 Benson Road.
The Dutchess County Sheriff's Office, the county Office of the Medical Examiner, the Wassaic Fire Department and Northern Dutchess Paramedics assisted state police at the scene.
The NY on-the-job accident took place as workers were laying down asphalt on a road construction site. New York officials told reporters that the investigation into this NY construction site accident is continuing. Police are still unsure of why Flood may have fallen off the asphalt machine.

Medical Malpractice Defined
What exactly is medical negligence? It is when a doctor or a health care professional acts negligently while treating a patient for a medical condition. It is a result of an action or inaction and the damages that result from it.
A main causes is the failure to diagnose a condition. Misdiagnosis is if a condition is not properly evaluated so that the correct treatment can be provided. A delayed diagnosis can result in serious side effects including death. If an illness or medical condition is undiagnosed too long the condition could escalate beyond repair.
A doctor can be responsible for medical malpractice if he/she fails to provide the patient with informed consent. This means the statistics and possible side effects must be made known so that the patient can make an informed decision as to how to proceed.
An lawyer should evaluate your potential case to see if you qualify for a medical malpractice law suit. If you can prove negligence and you suffered because of the negligence you have a great chance of success. On the other hand, if you did not suffer any side effects or damages it would smarter not to commence an action.
Medial malpractice lawsuits take time and money. Doctors must hired to confirm facts. Medical records must be purchased and the doctor's insurance company is going to fight.
Our lawyers will give you a free consultation and evaluate your case.
