Considerations When Making a Personal Injury Compensation Claim

Being procedurally aware when it comes to making a personal injury accident claim is of the utmost importance to the satisfactory resolution of your claim.

2011-06-16

June 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) Before making the vital decision of which personal injury solicitor you contact, there are a few pieces of information that you should be clear on regarding the incident in question.

If you believe that you have been the victim of an act of medical negligence or personal injury visit your General Practitioner as soon as possible for supportive evidence of your injuries. If involved in a traffic accident the same applies and injuries should be documented in a medical report for potential use in your case

If the circumstances dictate (such as a traffic or pedestrian collision) you should report the incident to the police within 24 hours as well as the relevant insurance companies

Where possible you should write down all details of the incident that you can still recount, such as witness details, number plates or any other details that may help, no matter how obscure they may appear at the time

Once you have undertaken these important steps and you wish to take the course of compensation through legal avenues (as opposed to making a formal complaint or other such recourse) you must find a good personal injury solicitor. Your solicitor will explain the complex timing issues in place when making an accident claim and will be liable to offer representation tailored to your individual circumstances, often on a no-win, no-fee basis (or CFA).

A mother's determination, next-generation sequencing provide solutions for twins

2011-06-16

HOUSTON - (June 15, 2011) – When Noah and Alexis Beery were diagnosed with cerebral palsy at age 2, their parents thought they at last had an answer to the problems that had plagued their twin infants from birth. However, that proved only a way station on a journey to find an answer to the children's problems that combined their mother's determination, the high tech world of next-generation sequencing in the Baylor Human Genome Sequencing Center (http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/) (HGSC) and the efforts of talented physicians from across the country. In a report in the current ...

Tribunals and Employment Law Procedures - Suing for Unfair Dismissal

2011-06-16

This example of an employment law Q&A reinforces the need to find a good employment solicitor to explain its intricacies. What is the procedure when a former employee decides to sue for unfair dismissal? The former employee would submit the form ET1 detailing the complaint, their personal information and any remedy sought. Employment solicitors can ensure this is done correctly. Upon receipt of the ET1 the employer must respond with form ET3 within 28 days outlining the particulars of their response. The parties involved will then enter the 'conciliation process' ...

A knockout resource for mouse genetics

2011-06-16

An international consortium of researchers report today in Nature that they have knocked out almost 40 per cent of the genes in the mouse genome. The completed resource will power studies of gene activity in models of human disease. The results are founded on a novel, efficient production line that is able to target each specific gene in turn. The consortium has cracked all the challenges of generating mutations of each gene in mouse embryonic stem cells, and has already knocked out 9,000 genes in the mouse genome as part of an international effort to knockout all 21,000. ...

Changing genetic 'red light' to green holds promise for treating disease

2011-06-16

In a new study published today in the journal Nature, scientists discovered an entirely new way to change the genetic code. The findings, though early, are significant because they may ultimately help researchers alter the course of devastating genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy and many forms of cancer. The genetic code is the set of instructions in a gene that tell a cell how to make a specific protein. Central to the body's protein production process is messenger RNA, or mRNA, which takes these instructions from DNA and directs the steps ...

Astronomers discover earliest black holes at dawn of universe

2011-06-16

New Haven, Conn.—Astronomers have been peering farther and farther into space, and back in time, using the world's most powerful telescopes to detect galaxies billions of light years away that existed when the universe was just a fraction of its current age. But detecting the giant black holes thought to lurk at the centers of those galaxies has proven much more difficult. Now a team of astronomers has discovered the earliest black holes ever detected, despite the fact that they are hidden from view by their host galaxies. They also measured the average growth rate of ...

Debenhams Reports Rise of Shirtego Men's Fashion Trend

2011-06-16

Debenhams has revealed that the de rigueur way for British men to wear their shirts this season is with three buttons undone, otherwise known as the 'shirtego' trend. Last seen on seventies lotharios such as Richard Gere in 'American Gigolo' and John Travolta in 'Saturday Night Fever', the bare chest has marked the return of the 'machosexual' - men who are not afraid to be masculine, confident and sexy. Department store, Debenhams asked its customers, "how low can you go?" and found that 75 per cent of men now regularly wear their shirt with three buttons ...

Leading Canadian health and environmental experts today issued a list of the top five ways parents can protect their children from toxic substances in and around the home. Controlling house dust; switching to less-toxic, fragrance-free cleaners; taking extreme care with renovation projects; avoiding certain types and uses of plastics; and choosing fish that are low in mercury are the five priority actions recommended by the Canadian Partnership for Children's Health and Environment (CPCHE) to reduce common sources of toxic exposure associated with child health risks. ...

2011-06-16

PHILADELPHIA – Sixty-six percent of publicly-insured children were unable to get a doctor's appointment for medical conditions requiring outpatient specialty care including diabetes and seizures, while children with identical symptoms and private insurance were turned away only 11 percent of the time, according to an audit study of specialty physician practices in Cook County, Ill. conducted by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine and the School of Social Policy and Practice at the University of Pennsylvania. The findings are published in the June 16 issue of ...
