Garbage Truck Accidents Las Vegas Nevada
Let’s face it, we take garbage pick for granted most of the time.
We just expect that the big truck will come and pick up our trash on the day specified for our neighborhood.
But as most of us have experienced being stuck behind the smelly truck on the road, or even stuck in a parking spot because the garbage truck is behind you or stopped on the road because the truck is picking up trash.
Yes most of the time this is ju...
What Happens if you Get Hurt at Costco
Let’s face it, we all love Costco.
What’s not to love right?
Where else can you buy 20 pounds of chicken breast, a kayak and get a set of tires all at one location?
And they have gas at least 20 cents less per gallon than anywhere else so again what’s not to love?
If inflation continues I might just be eating my meals at Costco.
But even with all this great stuff accidents do happen all the time at the giant retailer.

Understanding Negligence in Truck Accident Cases
Car vs. 18-wheeler, most of the time this doesn’t end well for the person or people in the motor vehicle.
Most of the time the driver of the truck will walk away from the accident unharmed and the people who were in the car are left with serious injuries and in some cases death.
This is a basic size issue; most cars and small trucks are significantly smaller and therefore just by size alone the semi-truck and the driver ...
Always Follow Safety Rules at Swimming Pools
Living in Nevada especially southern Nevada and Las Vegas comes with its own set of circumstances.

Head-On Collisions
Head-on collisions or front end collisions (wrong-way) are one of the most common car accidents out there and can be some of the deadliest.
Once explained to me by a doctor, with most head-on collision accidents, one person takes the brunt of the accident and the other person is usually only slightly injured if at all.
Seems funny how that happens when cars collide at a high rate of speed.
If you have been the victim of a head-on collision and sustained in...
