Is Tort Law Unconstitutional??

Believe it or not, some republicans in Arizona are calling tort law unconstitutional. They are quoting the words of our forefathers in which limited government was discussed. America was originally designed under the U.S. Constitution to be a limited government with strong individual freedoms and states rights. What exactly did our forefathers mean by "limited government" though? I, for one, don't think that they envisioned a county in which people could be negligent and cause physical injury to another without any chastisement. I believe that they envisioned a country with the individual freedom to stay safe and the state's right to protect that individual freedom. Personal injury and tort law embrace this second interpretation of our forefather's words. Instead of being unconstitutional, tort law embraces our forefather's dreams for America.

If you think you have a personal injury case and you want to embrace your freedom to get remuneration for your injury, consider contacting a personal injury lawyer. The Law Office of Peter G. Angelos, PC in Philadelphia could be the perfect law firm to handle your case. To find a personal injury lawyer nearer to you, visit the Personal Injury Lawyer Directory today!

Technology and Personal Injury Law

Technology is always changing. It affects businesses, education, careers, and social lives. Technology affects the field of personal injury law as well. Many lawyers use technology to prove their client’s cases and win settlements. For example, the law firm of Best & Anderson in Orlando, FL used technology to win one client 10 million dollars. They used advanced accident reconstruction technology to prove that their client was driving a car at the time of an automobile accident. Because of the proof, the man won a large settlement and got what he deserved in compensation.

Teen Auto Accidents Down?

On July 1, Colorado will join the many states that have restrictions on the licenses that new drivers can get. For new drivers under sixteen, they must hold a license for six months before they can drive with a passenger under twenty-one. For the next six months they can drive with only one passenger under twenty-one. For many new drivers, these restrictions seem ridiculous, yet most adults agree with the restrictions. The large number of teen auto accidents that occur increase exponentially with each passenger that is added to the car. Auto accident lawsuits can highlight the danger and responsibility that a driver assumes when they get behind the wheel as well. Not only do personal injuries illustrate the danger of getting behind the wheel, but the large fiscal settlements also illustrate the financial danger of reckless driving that leads to an accident. Law firms are notorious for their defense of auto accident victims and for the high settlements they win for their clients. When all the responsibilities and dangers, both physical and fiscal, that come with driving are considered, even teen drivers can accept the new law as beneficial.
