      <title>Work Zone Death: Wrongful Death Lawyer in South Florida Can Help Seek Justice</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">In the event of a work zone accident that results in a wrongful death, Hevia Law Firm can help you and your loved ones in establishing all liable parties and obtaining just compensation.</p><p>Miami, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/07/2022 --  Work zones, especially those situated on busy roads and interstates, can be exceedingly hazardous. When construction workers are not adequately protected, the only protections they have are traffic cones, barricades, and signage which are hardly a match against a vehicle at speed. When accidents do occur, the results are frequently tragic. In the event of a work zone accident that results in a wrongful death, multiple parties may be held accountable for their negligence. <br />
<br />
Not all traffic construction site employees are employed by the same employer. If a third-party worker contributes to a wrongful death in a work zone accident by, for example, failing to direct traffic safely or erect proper safety barricades, they may be held accountable for damages through a wrongful death lawsuit. Importantly, if a worker is killed due to the fault of their employer or a coworker, the worker&apos;s compensation exclusivity clause may prevent a civil wrongful death claim. Because workers&apos; compensation laws may limit the amount of recovery, the relationship of the parties must be thoroughly investigated.<br />
<br />
Drivers also must adhere to work zone speed limitations to ensure the safety of construction employees. Sadly, though, many drivers navigate through construction zones while inattentive or at an unsafe speed. In this scenario, the careless driver may be held responsible. <br />
<br />
It might be difficult to know what to do after the untimely death of a loved one. As a result, the <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Florida trial lawyers" href="https://hevialawfirm.com/south-florida-wrongful-death-lawyer/">Florida trial lawyers</a> at Hevia Law Firm can assist you throughout the process.

      <title>Can One Sue Uber or Lyft for Injuries in Florida</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Car accidents continue to be the most common cause of personal injury lawsuits in Florida. It is estimated that there are approximately 200,000 car accidents in Florida each year, amounting to more than 500 per day. Unfortunately, Uber's and Lyfts are included in this statistic.</p><p>Miami, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 02/17/2022 --  Rideshares are a popular method of transportation, especially in heavily populated areas such as Miami-Dade County. When accidents occur during these rides, who is held responsible? How does insurance work? Are Florida residents able to file lawsuits against these companies if they are at fault?<br />
<br />
If you were injured in an accident that involved an Uber or Lyft, contact a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="South Florida personal injury trial lawyer" href="https://hevialawfirm.com/">South Florida personal injury trial lawyer</a> for legal assistance. <br />
<br />
Since drivers of rideshares are independent contractors, suing the corporation is not a likely possibility. The company treats drivers as separate entities, not employees because they are not technically "employed" there but rather are classified as independent contractors. <br />
<br />
Due to the nature of independent contractor work, companies are not always responsible for the actions of independent contractors. Uber and Lyft, therefore, have limited legal liability for the drivers&apos; actions. <br />
<br />
However, while all rideshare companies require their driver to have their own car insurance, the companies will supplement insurance and provide some additional coverage for accidents when the driver is working. Even so, this insurance requires the driver&apos;s policy to be used first.<br />
<br />
If injured in an accident involving Uber or Lyft, it is more likely that you will be filing a lawsuit against the driver and not the company. <br />

      <title>Popular Weed Killer Causing Harm to Farmers - Could Cost Billions of Dollars in Claims</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">For decades, weed killers have been causing harm to American farmers. It is not uncommon that a new one makes headlines every few years as it is revealed to be dangerous with excessive use. Now Paraquat, a toxic herbicide made by Syngenta AG, sold by Chevron Crop in the United States, is the one making headlines.</p><p>Miami, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 10/13/2021 --  Paraquat is causing a severe and costly liability for the company as many are reporting the onset of Parkinson&apos;s disease from exposure. In the last seven months alone, farmers and field workers have filed a new lawsuit nearly every day. This came shortly after many lawsuits were filed against Bayer AG, the parent company for Roundup, another best-selling weed killer. Bayer AG reportedly has nearly $16 billion in unresolved lawsuits stacked against them. <br />
<br />
University of Kentucky law professor and product-liability expert Richard Ausness, says of the lawsuits, "Even if there aren&apos;t the kind of Roundup-level number of cases, I can see these companies offering several billion dollars just to make it go away...Parkinson&apos;s disease has a long, expensive tail that will drive up the cost of settling these cases."<br />
<br />
In August, Syngenta AG released a statement saying that they have already begun to resolve cases, agreeing to pay $187.5 million solely to "bring an end to these claims."<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, lawsuits like this are common due to the high level of toxicity found in weed killers. Long-term exposure can cause severe harm and long-term damage. However, thousands will likely be awarded compensation in this case. <br />

      <title>Why Personal Injury Lawsuits Are Taking More Time in 2021</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Injured people who were hurt due to negligent behavior may file claims against the party at fault to receive compensation for their injuries. This compensation can be used towards medical bills, replacement of damaged properties, lost wages, etc. The injured party will receive compensation from the insurance company of whoever was at fault. However, personal injury can get complicated, and in some cases, insurance companies reject the claims of those injured, resulting in a lawsuit. Personal injury trials are not anything new, but in 2021, it can seem like they are taking forever to pursue.</p><p>Miami, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 07/29/2021 --  The majority of cases have victims that need medical attention. During treatment, a complete analysis of injuries must be made to verify injuries acquired from an accident. Some injuries are long-lasting, and an injured person cannot have medical reimbursement until the doctor treating them declares they are healed or have reached maximum medical improvement (MMI), which means a patient has reached the maximum amount of treatment able to be given out and cannot be improved any more. All of this takes time, especially if a patient has severe injuries. <br />
<br />
The amount of compensation involved can also be a determining factor in how long the case takes to reach completion. If an injured party needs a high amount of compensation from an insurance company, it is common that the cases take much longer to be thoroughly analyzed. The higher the amount, the more an insurance company will look over the claim, paying attention to every detail of the case. <br />
<br />
On top of complications from the COVID-19 pandemic, all of this has caused personal injury cases to be slowed down in the last year.

      <title>The Most Common Personal Injury Cases</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Personal injury law can range from minor injuries to serious ones that can render people immobile for the rest of their lives.</p><p>Miami, FL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 07/09/2021 --  These types of cases are sadly common in the United States, but some cases are more common than others. Here are the most common types of personal injury cases you can pursue with a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Florida personal injury trial lawyer" href="https://hevialawfirm.com/">Florida personal injury trial lawyer</a>. <br />
<br />
Auto accidents: Injuries that occur due to a car accident qualify. If the injured party was not at fault, they might be able to seek compensation for injuries and damages that have occurred. You will need to access your medical documentation, which details your injuries, include your insurance information and the police report from the accident that states what happened. Bring all of these with you when you meet with your attorney. <br />
<br />
Medical malpractice: No one should have to fear their health will be impacted because of a medical professional&apos;s lack of attention, but it does happen. For you to seek legal action, the doctor or medical professional must have broken a rule or failed to take proper action when treating a patient. This includes a wide range of possibilities, so discussing your unique situation with an attorney will help you determine the best course of action to take. <br />
<br />
Product liability: this is the direct result of an injury sustained because of a defective product. <br />
<br />
Slip and Fall: if you were injured due to a fall on either a public or private property, you might be eligible to seek out legal action, though it will depend on the safety of the environment at the time of your fall.<br />
