Motorcycle Crashes and Causes
Friday, May 6th, 2011Motorcycle Crashes and Causes
Whether you were riding a Harley or a Honda, seek legal and medical attention after an accident. Motorcycle crashes usually involve distracted, inattentive, or drunk drivers, or hazardous road conditions, and can result in:
- a motorcycle being forced off the road
- a head-on collision with the other vehicle
- a motorcycle being hit at the side or rear
- a motorcycle going down in the road, vulnerable to other traffic
- a motorcycle being tossed in the air
Legal Representation by a Fellow Motorcyclist
Our cycle-riding, motorcycle crash lawyers understand the prejudice and bias that are often directed at motorcycle operators, first-hand. In accidents involving motorcycles, we know that the motorcycle driver often is assumed to be at fault. Our Texas attorneys, Rocky Haire and Justin Steinbock, know how to combat this bias in pursuing your claim for motorcycle injuries suffered as a result of the carelessness or inattention of another driver.
A used car dealer has a duty to discover and repair any obvious defects in the vehicle, or defects that are reasonably discoverable.

Injuries to children

Nursing home abuse Texas
Tuesday, January 25th, 2011We’re there when you need us!
Sadly, nursing home abuse is a growing area of the law. As our population ages, an increasing number of people are residing in assisted living facilities. More residents in such facilities lead to more instances of abuse and neglect. The Denton nursing home abuse attorneys at our firm are very knowledgeable about this area of the law. If you believe that a loved one in a nursing home is being abused or neglected in some way, it is important to speak to an elder law attorney immediately. Contact the elder neglect lawyers at Haire Law Firm to discuss your concerns.
Nursing Home Neglect
Elder neglect is the failure of a caregiver to take care of the physical, medical, or emotional needs of an elderly person. Such abuse may result from inadequate training or insufficient staffing. However, the facility operator is responsible for providing adequate care for residents. Poor training or insufficient staffing is not a defense against charges of elder abuse or negligence. Evidence of elder neglect or abuse in nursing homes may include bedsores, ulcers, fractures, malnutrition, dehydration, and unexplained bruises and injuries.
Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse, unlike neglect, is almost always the result of deliberate mistreatment. Nursing home abuse can be physical, such as hitting, slapping, shaking, or inappropriate use of restraints. It can also be emotional, involving things like humiliation, yelling, and verbal insults. Additionally, abuse can include sexual abuse, dangerous forms of punishment, and taking advantage of residents financially. Sadly, it can even result in death.
Our Most Vulnerable Citizens
The elderly are among our most vulnerable citizens. They can be lonely, afraid, confused, and unwilling to report instances of abuse and neglect. This is why it is critical for family members to be alert to signs of elder abuse and neglect. If you suspect that a loved one is being abused or neglected in any type of care facility for the elderly, contact a skilled elder law attorney right away. Our compassionate and dedicated attorneys at our firm, Haire Law Firm, have much experience in this area of the law. We know what to do to stop the abuse and secure compensation for any injuries that occurred.
