Major NFL Concussion Lawsuit Settlement Overview

The National Football League (NFL) has long been accused of ignoring the damaging effects of brain injuries on its players.  Even though they were presented with evidence of the risks of repetitive traumatic brain injuries many years ago, they did not share the information with players, concealed some information and did not take enough steps to prevent further injuries including NFL concussion head injuries and their severe aftermath. As such, they were hit with a major lawsuit to pay for damages and medical expenses of NFL retirees. The suit, which was filed in 2011, is officially called National Football League Players’ Concussion Injury Litigation,...

While city officials have worked hard to reduce pedestrian accidents during recent years, they keep occurring regularly in all five New York City boroughs explains Arkady Frekhtman, one of the pedestrian accident lawyers at the F&A injury law firm in Brooklyn.  On March 24, 2017, a one-year-old girl was struck and killed in Queens by a truck driver.

Taxotere Hair Loss: Breast Cancer Drug Causes Alopecia in Women

It was back during the late 1990s that the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first approved injections of docetaxel (brand name Taxotere®) for different forms of cancer. Since that time, it’s been approved to treat breast, prostate, head, and neck cancers. Patients suffering from gastric cancers and non-small cell lung cancer have also been advised to use this drug. At present, many patients are now filing lawsuits claiming their doctors failed to inform them that using this drug could result in permanent (not just temporary) hair loss. While some observers have tried to minimize the significance of permanent hair...

Truck Accident Lawyer Discusses PTSD Among Survivors of Semi Tractor-Trailer Crashes

When large trucks are involved in serious crashes, the impact on those involved is often far more than physical explains a truck accident lawyer in New York City. More than 3 million people suffer injuries in U.S. traffic accidents every year. The National Center for PTSD estimates that nine percent of these individuals have PTSD. One of these is a survivor of a tractor-trailer accident that killed five of her fellow nursing students. The April 23, 2015, wreck happened on Interstate 16 near Savannah, Georgia, when a big rig failed to slow down as it approached stalled traffic. The semi rear-ended...

Four or five decades ago our country could only offer limited rehabilitative resources to someone suffering from a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

NYC Construction Accident Lawyer Discusses Electrocutions & Handling of Hazardous Energy

Although falls account for the largest number of major construction site injuries and deaths, close to 10% (about 8.6% in 2015) of them occur while someone is working with electricity or other hazardous energy explains Arkady Frekhtman, a NYC construction accident lawyer. Many dangerous assignments are tied to lockout-tagout (LOTO) tasks – they are performed to try and protect workers from sudden surges of power being emitted by machines or various sources of electrical (or other) forms of energy. One older, long-term study states that electrocutions are the fourth major cause of death among construction workers. Depending on the precise tasks...

He has been battling quadriplegia (tetraplegia) for over eight years since his spinal cord injury. Quadriplegia causes paralysis in one’s pelvic organs – as well as in the hands, arms, trunk, and legs. Up until this ground-breaking surgery, the injured Mr. Kochevar could not move any portion of his body beneath his shoulders. He suffered his injury while riding his bicycle. He had...

NYC Construction Site Falls Remain Deadly

Every few months, another sad news story reveals that a New York City construction worker has fallen to his death. As most construction site managers know, falls are among the “fatal four” most dangerous threats to construction site injuries and deaths. Close to 38.8% of the construction site deaths reported in 2015 were caused by falls. Many falls involve improperly constructed scaffolding, unprotected roof edges; poorly covered holes in floors; and inadequate fall protection training. Highly responsible construction site supervisors can easily prevent all of these problems long before anyone falls. Another Deadly Construction Site Fall in Brooklyn – December 2016 Shortly before...
