How common are injuries from children's toys?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

In 2006 there were approximately 220,000 child injuries as a result of defective products that are sold in this country. They range from defective toys that present strangulation, or choking hazards to defective bicycles, ATVs, scooters, child seats, playpens just about anything you can imagine your child comes in contact with. What happens is these corporations that make these products put profit before safety. They don't care about our children. We trust them to make products that are safe and will not harm our children, and they don't follow thorough on the responsibility. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Why are children the most common victims of a dog attack in California?

The Roberts Law Firm

Children are the most common victims of dig attacks. Because one, usually it is another child bringing the dog out of the house and its not being supervised by an adult. Two, dogs are threatened by small children that are right there in their face and it presents a danger to the dog and a natural attack. And third, children are more apt to instigate the dog just by playing with it and they don't realize the dog is going to attack them. I'm Jeff Roberts, of the Roberts Law Firm.

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

As an attorney and a child safety advocate, I believe it’s my role not only to provide compensation for an individual child, an individual family that’s suffered injury as the result of a defective toy or product, but also to send the message to the industry, that they can’t get away with it.

Can kids be placed on orders of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

The most common misperception of an order of protection is that children cannot be placed on an order of protection. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on the party, children can be placed on an order of protection and a parent can be wholly prohibited from contacting those children as a result of the current order of protection placed against them. Therefore if a child is placed on an order of protection, it is imperative for that person to contact a lawyer, contact my office, so that we can assist you in getting that child off of an order or protection that often times is unfortunately used as a vindictive means by one parent to prevent access to other child.

Can a child file a wrongful death lawsuit?

Bisnar Chase LLP

Children who’ve lost a parent in some kind of an accident cannot file a wrongful death claim. They can’t file any kind of claim because they don’t have standing in the court, because they’re not an adult. So what happens is an adult stands in for them, it’s called guardian ad litem. So typically it’s a parent, but it could be an aunt, an uncle, a grandparent. Then they can bring a wrongful death claim on behalf of the child for the loss of the support that they would have had, meaning financial support, and the loss of the support that they would have had, meaning emotional support – the love, attention, affection, personal guidance that they would have received from a parent.

Who should seek an order of protection in Arizona?

Undoubtedly in Arizona, a person who feels threatened by physical harm or genuinely harassed by either an ex-spouse or by an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, should seek an order of protection. Because if that defendant or that person is harassing your or tries to contact you in any way outside of the scope of the order of protection, they can be arrested for interference of judicial proceedings and face up to six months in jail for contacting you. It is very important for a person who feels that their life, that their freedom, or that their happiness is in danger by another individual seek and obtain an order of protection.

How do I get an order of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the process for obtaining an order of protection is quite simple. The person needs to go to the courthouse, ask the appropriate clerk or staff about how to fill up the paperwork. They will then fill out the paperwork, go before a judge, and the judge will evaluate, expartate which means individually without another person present the merits of the allegations against the defendant. If the judge or the commissioner feels that the order of protection is appropriate, they will grant the order of protection. And by rule of thumb, they will grant the order of protection more often than they will deny it. My name is Mike Baker of The Baker Law Firm.

Do orders of protection work in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

Orders of protection are very effective in Arizona. The police, and all of the sheriff's departments have databases that keep people who have orders of protection on an online database.

They will be taken down to a jail, and they will be charged with interference with judicial proceedings. If a person feels genuine and sincere danger or harassment from another individual, an order of protection is a very effective means at protecting one's self.

What is an order of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona an order of protection is the ability of one person as a plaintiff to prevent the defendant, another person, in which there is a familial relationship or a residential relationship. This order of protection will prevent the defendant from contacting the plaintiff either electronically, telephonically, in writing or in person. Essentially it is a restraining order, but in Arizona it is called an order of protection. My name is Mike Baker of The Baker Law Firm.

What is the role of an attorney in a Domestic Violence case in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, handling a domestic violence matter is often tricky and fraught with various different persons who have interest in the proceeding. A victim might want to be protected but also might want to get back together with a defendant. The defendant might be prevented by terms of their release conditions from even going back to the home where a married couple had been for many, many years. Therefore the role of a defense attorney is two-fold. Its one to handle the actual criminal matter but on the other hand it to act in some sense as a counselor navigating through a process that is unfamiliar. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm.

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

In dog bite cases especially those involving children we see very jagged injuries that are dirty, tend to get infected. We've seen children's ears get bitten off, lips torn, noses bitten off, eye damage. It can be very devastating especially if it's a large dog, and these injuries many times require plastic surgery to repair and involve permanent disfigurement, so the value of the cases could go from the thousands of dollars to millions of dollars depending upon how much damage the dog does to the child.

Will my dog bite claim cover plastic surgery?

Bisnar Chase LLP

In a dog attack claim, not only is the victim entitled to the medical expenses that they incur initially, pain and suffering that they would have, any lost income that they would have, but the eventual plastic surgery to repair the scarring.

How much money are victims of dog bite attacks awarded?

Bisnar Chase LLP

The recovery in a dog attack law suit is just like in any other lawsuit. It's the value of your claim. It's the value of your injury. It's the value of your medical expenses. The reason why dog attack claims are higher than in other kinds of accidents is because of the nature of the wound. A dog bite wound is jagged, it's full of germs, it leaves nasty scarring and many, many bites are to the face, especially children. So you have great deal of scarring and you wind up having plastic surgery bills. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

What is the statute of limitations on malpractice lawsuits in NY?

Steven E. North

The statute of limitations in New York in medical malpractice cases for an adult is two and a half years from the date of the last related treatment by the defendant or target doctor. It's different if children are involved, there's a ten year statute of limitations. It's different if a municipality is involved because their claim limits is as short as three months that have to be filed. And when that treatment or the continuous treatment begins or ends there's a very, sometimes, complex issue that really has to be analyzed by a lawyer promptly. I'm Steven North.

A child who is exposed to lead, especially during the formative years, can sustain brain damage, um, learning disabilities or even death depending upon the concentration of lead in their bodies and in their bloodstreams. It's very dangerous. Therefore, when it shows up in toys, it's virtually mind-boggling that, in this day and age, corporations would be so careless that they wouldn't exercise care in assuring that these toxic poisonous substances are not in our toys and hurting our children.

When I was a child, I was bitten by a dog and unfortunately my parents did not hire an attorney who specialized in dog bite cases.

It's one of the reasons that when I represent people that are in dog bite cases, particularly children, I fight to recover maximum recovery for them.

Who are the most common victims of a dog attack?

Bisnar Chase LLP

The most horrendous dog attack cases are the ones against children. Generally dogs will bite a child around the face, neck and head. With the very aggressive dogs, they will rip and tear. So, there is a lot of damage that creates tremendous scaring especially around the lips, the face, the eyes, the ears. I've seen cases of lips ripped off and ears ripped off and the amount of recovery time, the scaring, and the plastic surgery that comes afterwards, it?s just tremendous, its horrendous. I'm John Bisnar, the Senior Partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm. We exclusively represent seriously injured accident victims from our offices in Newport Beach, California.

What are some common child safety hazards in cars?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

With respect to automobile safety, there are particular hazards that apply to children. They have to be restrained. Many times there are defective seat belts that upon impact release and the child is ejected from the vehicle. Or they are sitting in a child safety seat, that's inadequately designed or a manufacturing flaw, that will allow the child to be ejected from the vehicle. Once a child is ejected from a vehicle, the seriousness of the injuries increase dramatically because the child does not have the safety of being contained within the vehicle itself. These injures many times devastating. If they don't cause death they can cause spinal cord injury, brain injury or paralysis. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families, in Massachusetts, for over three decades.

How long will I lose my license for a 2nd DUI in California?

The Law Offices of Virginia L Landry, Inc.

What types of injuries can be covered in a dog bite or attack claim in California?

The Roberts Law Firm

Dog bite claims have unique injuries different from many other types of accidents. In particular, scarring. And in a dog bite claim, all medical bills can be compensated. If someone looses income due to the dog bite, they will recover their lost income. Pain and suffering, but also, as I said, scarring. Scarring, particularly, on small children causes problems later on as they get older and requires surgeries and those surgeries will be compensated as well. I'm Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law Firm, a full service personal injury law firm in Southern California. If you've been involved in an accident, call us for a free consultation.

Do I need a will if I have a Living Trust?

Wealth Strategies Counsel

You do need a will if you have a living trust. It’s referred to as a pour over [SP] will. In the event that there’s assets inadvertently left out of your trust, a pour over will allows them to pour back into the terms of the trust. A will is also necessary to appoint an executor to act for you in the event that there is a proceeding that does need to be brought before the court. And most importantly, it is necessary if you have children. It allows you to nominate, name a specific individual to act as guardian of your minor child, in the event that something happens to you. I’m Lisa Alred [SP] and I’m a team member of Well Strategies Council. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to assist you with your estate planning, trust administration and probate needs.
