As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact day to day life across the country, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Institute for Legal Reform is focusing on ensuring businesses don’t face legal penalties related to the pandemic.
Medical malpractice lawsuits are notoriously complex and challenging. Injured patients, however, should receive the compensation they need for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages when a doctor’s negligence results in their injuries. Unfortunately, justice for med mal lawsuits isn’t always served. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), only 50% of trials in cases with strong evidence of medical negligence result in an award for the plaintiff.

When a natural disaster of any kind starts to impact businesses, some business owners rely on business interruption coverage to manage their losses.

When you are driving on the highway, you might think that the guardrails on the side of the road are there for your protection. While that may have been the intent when the Federal Highway Administration approved the guardrails, it turns out that they are not always efficient at protecting drivers and passengers in an accident. In fact, sometimes they can cause serious injury and even death.
After an accident that causes injuries and damages, it’s important to understand your legal options to recover financial compensation. If you crashed into a guardrail and it caused even more damage than would’ve happened otherwise, you might want to consider filing a claim against a manufacturer whose product does more harm than good. A Chicago car accident lawyer from Thomas Law Offices will fully investigate your accident to determine who was at fault and then can build your claim from there.
