Hummmm... So what did Wal-Mart mean by Tracy Morgan Contributing to his own Negligence? Let's take a listen to Attorney Paul Hernandez on the Hampton Roads Show Today discussing Contributory Negligence.

In February 2010, a Virginia resident suffered a serious traumatic brain injury during a car accident in which his vehicle's side air bags failed to deploy. He was in a coma for nearly a week, and now requires the care of a long-term facility. A jury in the Pulaski Circuit Court recently awarded the family $14 million in damages after being convinced that the air bag sensors in the 2003 - 2008 Hyundai Tiburon models were defective.

As anyone who leases or finances a car knows, once you leave the car lot the value of your automobile drastically decreases.

The value of your car is important as you must understand that an insurance company looks to the value of your car and not the value of your car loan when replacing your vehicle.

An accident is already such a horrible and confusing time. You need to get your car fixed, deal with insurance companies and at the very least deal with any injuries you may have sustained in the car accident.

But how do you handle being in an accident where the party who caused your accident has fled the scene and is nowhere to be found? These types of accidents, typically called “hit and runs”, can wreak havoc after a crash.

A question you may be asking after a car accident is whether or not you should get rid of your child’s car seat if you were involved in a car accident. You may want to know this whether or not your child was even in the seat at the time of the accident.

When you drive a motor vehicle, you already have to be very cautious and aware of hazards. But what about the hazards we cause every day by ourselves?

These hazards are the dangerous things we shouldn’t be doing while driving like putting on makeup, playing with the radio, eating, drinking, and grooming ourselves. One of the biggest dangers as most people know is using their cell phone.

The last thing we ever want is one of our children to come under any harm. But it’s even worse when your child is injured due to the carelessness of someone else.

Such is the case of one of our clients whose son Eric was hit by a car as the driver was talking on their cell phone. The driver claimed the child ran into the road and took no responsibility that she hit a 7 year old on a bike.
