Multi-car accidents can raise questions of who is responsible for damage. It's important to report any multi-vehicle accident to an insurer because the crash may turn out to have caused more damage than initially expected. Some injuries can have a delayed onset, or what seems like a small medical issue could worsen if recovery doesn't occur as planned.

When multiple cars get into a collision, reporting the crash is important so insurers will be able to determine who is to blame. Find out more.

Businesses sometimes require customers to sign liability waivers before taking part in activities that carry some measure of risk, like sky diving or scuba diving. The enforceability of these documents depend on the state where they are signed, and courts may weigh the document against other factors, such as whether the person signing it understood the form and the risks they were taking.

Passengers of the expedition likely signed liability waivers that will have a huge impact on any legal action.

🚨Florida HB 837 Will Block Access To Justice For Floridians 🚨

Floridians are in danger of being blocked off from the justice they deserve with House Bill 837. This bill is a direct attack on citizens by creating an unfair tax that would require them to pay out-of-pocket any time a business or insurance company fails to fairly compensate victims for harm caused. With these unjust laws passed, more people will be reliant on taxpayer-funded resources and services after suffering catastrophic events – making this law all the more devastating.

Make sure that the decision-makers in Florida hear you – don’t allow powerful corporations to take away your rights.

HB 837 will 👇
🚨 Cap the amount insurance companies pay out in damages
🚨 Limit what a civil jury could hear about an injured person's medical costs
🚨 Shorten the statute of limitations for an injured person to file a claim

Some Republican lawmakers have said the bills tilt the scales too far in favor of insurance companies and note that homeowners insurance premiums continue to rise despite years of legislation limiting lawsuits.
"We are not sticking up for small businesses and individuals in the state of Florida, who are being taken advantage of by a number of these insurance companies who are not doing right by them," Sen.
Erin Grall, R-Vero Beach, an attorney, said on
Wednesday.
DeSantis' office did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment Thursday morning.

DeSantis and GOP lawmakers want to make it much harder to sue insurance companies.

The changes would make it riskier for lawyers to take cases against insurance companies and make insurance companies pay less in injury cases. Some of the changes overturn 130-year-old law meant to give the policyholder more of a level playing field against their insurer.

Today we salute all women. You can’t spell hero without “her”. THE WOMAN IN THE ARENA It is not the critic who counts; not the woman who points out how the strong woman stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the woman who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends herself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if she fails, at least fails while DARING GREATLY, so that her place shall never be with those cold
and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

"I chose Karly Christine when I learned she had previously been an attorney working for the insurance companies! For myself it was the best decision I could have made. I had never been involved in an accident which involved a lawsuit and she guided me through the process step by step, making sure I understood everything. Her office handled all the paperwork and both Karly and her staff were responsive to all questions. She was able to obtain the maximum settlement for my injuries. I would highly recommend her for her skills, knowledge, empathy and professionalism."
