Cue the fireworks, fire up the grill, and get ready for what might be the most ambitious birthday cake of all time. 🎂

America turns 250 this year, which means 250 candles on the cake … so someone should probably alert the fire department.

However you’re celebrating the Fourth of July, we hope it’s filled with great food, good company, and a sky full of fireworks.

Our office will be closed on Friday, July 3rd, in observance of the holiday. We’ll be back and ready to help on Monday. Wishing you a safe and happy Fourth!

When a crash happens, fault is not always one-sided. In some cases, both parties may share responsibility. That is where comparative negligence applies. Comparative negligence is a legal doctrine that reduces an injured person’s compensation based on their percentage of fault.

Insurance companies may attempt to shift blame to reduce payouts, so even a small change in fault percentage can significantly impact your recovery. Swipe for more information.

If you have been injured and are concerned about shared fault, do not make assumptions about your case. Contact us to discuss your situation and protect your right to full and fair compensation.
