Grandparents are known for spoiling their grandchildren with presents and time, but a new report by AARP shows that grandparents are contributing more to their grandchildren's daily expenses than they ever have before. But, unlike the rights afforded under the grandparent visitation statutes in many states, grandparents in Florida have no legal right to see their grandchildren if the parents do not agree to allow the contact. Grandparent Contributions Growing Gone are the days when grandpa and grandma's financial contributions to their grandchildren were limited to ...

We all hear plenty about the driving distractions posed by electronic devices that increase the likelihood of car crashes and truck accidents. However, there is also a major upside to wireless technologies, and automotive industry experts predict that all new motor vehicles will eventually be equipped with "connected car" systems that will allow cars and trucks to communicate with each other and inform drivers about imminent hazards. Using wireless transmitters that broadcast a car's position multiple times per second, researchers at the University of Michigan's ...

Meningitis -- many have heard of it, but very few know someone who has contracted the illness. This sickness involves the inflammation of tissues that surround the brain and spinal cord. However, on September 20, Nashville's Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center was shut down because 11 patients were infected with a rare form of the illness. So far, six people have experienced a deep brain stroke and two individuals have lost their lives from fungal meningitis, which was purportedly contracted at the hospital. People at risk for this deadly illness usually contract ...

There are few things more terrifying than being confronted with the snarling teeth of a vicious dog. Though the vast majority of canines are gentle family companions, some have a very dangerous temperament. All it takes is a few seconds for these animals to attack or snap at an unsuspecting human. Dog bites often result in permanent physical and psychological scars, especially when the victims are children. Conventional wisdom used to say that some breeds were more likely than others to become vicious. Because of their large size, strong jaws and unfortunate use ...

Since 1996, Pennsylvania Act 57 has authorized the use of compromise and release (C&R) settlement agreements for all workers' compensation claims. The main idea is to expedite the claims adjudication process by avoiding litigation and allowing the parties to resolve contested issues without overburdening the workers' compensation system. While C&R agreements play an important role in the workers' compensation settlement process, they are not one-size-fits-all and may not be appropriate in every case. Pennsylvania C&Rs specifically allow the release of both ...

A variety of problems can lead to truck accidents with smaller vehicles, from unbalanced loads to poor maintenance or faulty brakes. Regardless of whether any mechanical causes of a truck accident are detected, a personal injury attorney must also consider whether the driver's actions or condition played a role in the crash. A recent study looked at one troubling cause of driver fatigue: failing to report symptoms of sleep apnea because truckers are worried about losing their jobs. While truck drivers face strict hours-of-service rules and other trucking safety regulations ...

Looking at a large metropolitan area, whether New York City or Los Angles, at the incredible, intertwining network of roads, bridges, tunnels, overpasses and other structures that make up the transportation infrastructure, a natural assumption may be to assume that all that mass of streets and highways would lead to more traffic accidents. A recent report released by the Allstate Insurance Company indicates that you would also be wrong. The report, entitled the "Allstate America's Best Drivers Report," ranks cities by frequency of car accidents. Their numbers ...

The Connecticut Supreme Court recently upheld the criminal conviction of Brady Guilbert, who was found guilty in the shooting deaths of two New London residents in 2004. In sustaining the conviction, it also ruled on the ability for the defense to call experts to testify on the defendant's behalf to challenge eyewitness accounts. At trial, Guilbert's defense wanted to call Charles A. Morgan III, a professor of psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine and an expert on eyewitness identifications. Dr. Morgan would have testified about how stress can alter a ...

Two major studies of the current state of workers' compensation benefits across the country found startling inadequacies in the amount of benefits the average injured worker receives from his or her employer's workers' compensation insurance company. Experts believe that it is time to reform the system to make it work in the best interests of the worker, not the insurance company. Report Finds Payments to Workers Have Been Falling Over Time The IAIABC Journal is the semi-annual publication of IAIABC, an association of government agencies that regulate workers' compensation ...

A study found 86 percent of high school students claim their classmates are drinking, smoking and using drugs in and around their school, according to a story in the Christian Science Monitor.

The survey does not indicate any reason for the increase, but Joseph ...

If you are in the midst of a divorce, or are seriously considering filing for divorce, you should take a moment and reconsider your relationship with some of your friends. Especially your relationship with Facebook, as it may not prove to be much a friend during your divorce. For many people, Facebook and other types of social media, such as Twitter, are an essential part of keeping up with and communicating with friends and family. You post important information and pictures, view posts from your friends, and use it as a means of tying together that sometimes far-flung ...

It seems to go without saying, but the consequences associated with trucking accidents are quite severe - and in some cases, deadly. After all, other motorists on the road are at an obvious size disadvantage if they face a several-ton truck bearing down on them. These dangers are all too well-known to drivers in Chicago, given that the Windy City is a major transportation crossroads. Every day, thousands of trucks traverse the interstates in and around the Chicago-land area - interstate highways such as 90, 94, 80, 88 or 55. Tragically, with such trucking activity, interstate ...

Ohio law enforcement recently concluded their latest crackdown on impaired driving and drunk driving, and motorists across the state were put on notice with billboards and other ads announcing the "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign. Checkpoints and targeted enforcement of certain highways were intended to increase drunk driving arrests leading up to and through the Labor Day holiday. The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) coordinated the campaign nationwide to warn drivers that DUI/OVI charges await ...

Ever since the Tennessee General Assembly enacted a tough Driving Under the Influence Statute (DUI) 1982, Summers and Wyatt has probably handled as many DUI, vehicular homicides, and vehicle assault cases in the trial and appellate courts in Tennessee as any other law firm as part of its general criminal law practice. Upon increasing pressure from politicians, law enforcement and special interest groups such as the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and the National Highway Safety Council (NHSC) and others, ...
