School is back in session across the region and the morning drive changes with it. Buses stop every few blocks, children cross mid-block and drivers who had the road to themselves all summer are still driving like it's July.

Three habits worth building this week:

✔️ Put your phone away completely (it’s also the law!)
✔️ Leave 10 minutes earlier so you're not the one rolling a stop sign
✔️ Watch for kids stepping out from between parked cars near bus stops

If your child was hurt by a driver near a school or a bus stop, visit padberglaw.com/contact to talk with our team.

When you've been injured due to the negligence or wrongful act of another party, understanding what compensation may be available can feel overwhelming.

Depending on the circumstances of your case, damages may fall into any of the following three categories:

✔️Economic damages for financial losses like medical bills and lost wages.

✔️Non-economic damages for pain and suffering or emotional distress.

✔️Punitive damages in certain cases involving particularly reckless or intentional conduct.

Knowing what each type of damage covers can help you better understand the legal process and what to expect.

Today is National 811 Day. Whether you're setting a fence post or planting a tree, a utility line could sit inches below where you're about to put a shovel. Striking a gas or electric line can cause burns, explosions and outages that take out the whole block.

Call 811 or file a request online at least two working days before you break ground and a locator will come mark the lines. It's free and only takes a few minutes. In most cases it's also required by law in both Missouri and Illinois.

Today marks the start of Safe & Sound Week, and OSHA's focus this year is recognition of the workers who speak up about a hazard before anyone gets hurt.

That matters more than it sounds. When a crew member reports a frayed cable or a missing guardrail and is taken seriously, the next worker reports the next problem. When the report goes nowhere, people stop making them.

We've represented Missouri and Illinois workers who were hurt on job sites where somebody had already flagged the danger. If you were injured at work and aren't sure what your employer owes you, visit padberglaw.com/contact for a free consultation.

When a standard passenger car is involved in a crash, the investigation often relies on police reports, witness statements and visible damage. A commercial trucking collision is different. 🚛

Modern semi-trucks are essentially rolling computers, making it easier to access and interpret critical data on your accident and uncover negligence that isn’t visible on the pavement. 🔎
