There are really three kinds of liability:  negligence, strict liability and intentional conduct.  Negligence means a failure to act with proper caution or reasonable care.  Strict liability refers to situations in which defendants can be held accountable regardless of intent.  Intentional conduct is just as it sounds - it refers to situations in which one party willfully or intentionally harms another.

A Scranton injury lawyerat Rogan Law can work with accident reconstruction specialists, medical professionals, economists, private investigators and other qualified professionals to conduct investigations and to act as expert witnesses for your case, helping to prove the liability of the defendant in your Scranton accident case.  If someone else caused your injuries, then we will work with you to prove it.

Repeat DUIs present a major threat to public safety, as do all drunk drivers, who cause injury and death to innocent people every day.  If you have been injured or have lost a loved one in a drunk driving accident, then you know that drunk drivers present more than a legal conundrum; they can take away your health and even your life.

Another Scranton personal injury law firm doesn't seem to think so.  Shortly after reading my friend's words, I heard a radio advertisement from a large, local firm encouraging listeners to call in from their cell phones.  The ad emphasized the convenience of multitasking - but is the convenience worth the risk?

The US Department of Transportation doesn't think so.  With 6,000 people killed and 500,000 injured each year by distracted drivers, increasing numbers of whom are cell phone users, the Department has launched a major campaign to educate the public about the dangers of mixing cell phones and driving and to mobilize change.  One of the most interesting statistics the Department cites:  Using a cell phone - even hands-free - while driving delays drivers reaction as much as their having a BAC of 0.08, for which they could be arrested for DUI in PA.

If you are injured by a distracted driver, then you need an NEPA auto accident lawyer who takes driver negligence seriously.  At Rogan Law, we understand that, when you are the one injured because someone else's phone conversation was more important than your life, the issue of driver distraction is very important, indeed.

A great place to start if you're interested in learning more about these issues is with the Academy Award nominated documentary film, FOOD, Inc.  Another resource that might help you act on your newly discovered food literacy is Buy Fresh Buy Local, a website that lists farms, farmers markets and businesses that emphasize locally produced foods throughout NEPA.

Among the businesses listed is Journey's End, an organic family farm and maple syrup operation in Wayne County that offers the public opportunities to engage in Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) by purchasing a weekly share of the farm's produce.  When you join a CSA, you get much more than food; you get a relationship with the people who worked to produce it, a sense of the land from which it came, new friends, and a chance to make a positive difference in your community.

The local food movement is all about thinking through the consequences of our actions and taking responsibility for our choices.  In some ways, my work as a Wayne County personal injury lawyer deals with similar issues.  Many people do not think before they act, and some people act in ways that overtly harm others.  When someone else's irresponsibility causes you injury, you need to speak with a reputable Wayne County personal injury attorney.

If you need a Wayne County personal injury lawyer, then you should contact a Wayne County personal injury attorney at Rogan Law today.

When something bad happens in New York, it does not feel like it happened in a far away place.  Rather, it feels like it happened in our own backyard.  Maybe that is why news about the failed car bombing in Times Square this past weekend aroused such feelings of anger, anxiety and upset here at home.  News of terrorist attacks anywhere shock and sadden us, but news of terrorism in NYC stops us in our tracks.

Thankfully, no one was hurt.  I hope the police, FBI and other law enforcement piece together the evidence and find the responsible party quickly and without further incident.  I wish no one from Scranton, NYC or anywhere else ever had to deal with situations like this.  Unfortunately, in our world, people hurt other people all too often.

Getting hurt and recovering from injuries is always hard.  Getting hurt and recovering from injuries because someone meant to hurt you, or even because they neglected to take common sense precautions to avoid doing so, is somehow harder.

If you are injured in an accident because of someone else's irresponsible behavior, then you need a Scranton personal injury lawyer.  A Scranton personal injury attorney from Rogan Law cannot change what has happened to you, but our firm will help you hold the negligent party responsible for what you have endured.  If you need an experienced and aggressive Scranton personal injury lawyer, then contact a Scranton personal injury attorney from Rogan Law today.

Though putting money at the beginning and ending of that equation may seem crude to someone who has never been devastated by a serious accident, people who have had the great misfortune of finding themselves in that situation know that you need money at every point in the healing process:  Health care, rehabilitation, counseling, lost wages - every one of those challenges comes with a price tag attached.

In the context of the book, the words refer to the system of apartheid that existed in South Africa for the majority for most of our lives.  My nephew is writing a report on the ways the South African government curbed free speech and free press during the 1980s in a last ditch effort to silence advocates for change.  Smart kid.

When I read the words, though, as an injury lawyer in Scranton, I could not help but make the connection to the struggle many of my clients face as they attempt to reckon with painful harm that has come to them as the result of someone else's negligence.  Their task also requires courage and commitment, as well as support.

In my experience, most "accidents" have all these qualities - yes, they are unforeseen and unplanned - but that does not mean that they were unforeseeable or unpreventable.  In many cases, a Scranton car crash could have been avoided had the responsible party exercised proper caution and taken preventive measures.  Perhaps it is true that the person responsible did not see or plan for the danger, but it can be true, simultaneously, that that person could have and should have done so.

As your Scranton car crash lawyer, I can work with accident reconstruction experts and other professionals to pinpoint the exact cause of a Scranton car crash and therefore prove the other driver's responsibility.  Whether that person was violating a traffic law, speeding, driving recklessly, driving exhausted, driving drunk, racing, driving while distracted or using a cell phone, his or her "careless or ignorance" has become the cause of your suffering.

Driving accidents.  

The Pocono Record recently reported that driving accidents account for more than 40,000 deaths each year - that's around 120 people per day.  Many additional people are seriously injured in ways that continue to impact them for the rest of their lives.

In the Poconos, fatal accidents are on the rise.  Country roads, extreme weather conditions and population increases may all be factors in this deadly trend.

Losing someone you love in a car accident is almost unthinkable, but it is, unfotunately, far more likely than we want to believe.  Often called vehicular manslaughter or vehicular homicide, driving-related deaths do affect many Pocono families.  

If you or someone you know is experiencing this most painful tragedy, then you need to find a Pocono wrongful death attorney who will stand by your side and will build a case against the driver who caused the accident while you focus on your emotional and spiritual loss.  

A Pocono wrongful death lawyer from Rogan Law can help your family begin the process of filing a wrongful death suit against the responsible party.  This won't bring your loved one back, but it can help you to begin healing and provide you with financial compensation to cover funeral costs, medical bills and more.

According the the Times-Tribune, the couple filed suit against the officer in November, alleging that the accident caused serious and permanent injuries.  The couple is also suing the city for what they describe as its failure to properly train, monitor and supervise the officer.

The outcome of the case remains to be seen, but I feel for the couple filling the charges.  

It's hard enough to physically recover from an auto accident that causes serious injuries, but to have to summon the courage to sue a police officer and the city in which one lives just to secure justice must be incredibly difficult.  With mounting medical bills added to the mix, one can understand how accident victims may feel entirely helpless and lost.  Their road to recovery may be long, hard and expensive.

A Scranton car accident attorney experienced in representing car accident victims can help.  If you have been injured in a car accident in Scranton, then you need a Scranton car accident lawyer  to evaluate your case and to determine how to protect your interests and seek maximum financial compensation for your injuries.
