in Accidents, Semi Truck Accidents, Tractor Trailer Accidents, Truck Accidents, Vehicle Accidents

There are many causes of semi truck accidents, such as driver inexperience and mechanical failure.

in Accident Injuries, Accidents, Pedestrian Accidents, Vehicle Accidents

New York Pedestrian Injuries & Safety Tips First responders have many important yet unpleasant tasks to handle on a daily basis. Perhaps one of the hardest is seeing the terrible toll pedestrians suffer after being hit by careless motorists.

Recent New York State Department of Motor Vehicle accident statistics published online indicate that there were 269 fatal pedestrian/motor crashes reported to the police in 2014.

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Medical Malpractice

To help patients minimize their suffering, basic neurological tests have been developed to help doctors gain conclusive evidence about the presence or absence of MS. Hopefully, the standard and emerging tests and treatments referenced below will help you or someone you know regain greater control over...

Voltage also plays an important role. Voltage is the driving force that pushes amperage through your body. While a thick piece of wood will...
