The Pennsylvania Personal Injury Lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C. Announce Drunk Driving Awareness Campaign
Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) January 18, 2012
The Pennsylvania personal injury lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., are proud to announce the launch of a new Facebook campaign designed to generate awareness of the dangers of drunk driving. Participants who visit and “like” the firm’s Facebook page are automatically entered into a sweepstakes to win a brand new Kindle Fire, the newest version of Amazon’s popular tablet device. The campaign features a video entitled “There are no Extra Lives When You Drink and Drive” and sobering statistics about the danger driving while intoxicated poses to all of us on a daily basis.
Drunk driving is one of the most significant injury concerns in the United States. According to research presented by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as many as 1 in 3 Americans will be involved in a drunk driving accident at some point in their lifetime. Annually, drunk driving accidents claim more than 10,000 lives. Fortunately, law enforcement policies and efforts to increase the awareness of the dangers associated with this irresponsible type of behavior have had a significant effect on the rate of drunk driving fatalities, which have decreased by 44% since 1991. However, more effort is needed to continue combating this public danger.
Victims of drunk driving accidents may suffer catastrophic injuries, emotional trauma, and disfigurement, not to mention costly medical bills and income lost from time spent recovering. For this reason, drunk driving accident victims are entitled to pursue financial compensation from the individual responsible for their damages. The Philadelphia personal injury attorneys of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., are prepared to represent those who have suffered the consequences of a drunk driver’s irresponsible decisions.

Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyers of Webb, Wade & Taylor, LLC Discuss Alcohol-Related Accidents During the Holiday Season
Atlanta Personal Injury Lawyers of Webb, Wade & Taylor, LLC Discuss Alcohol-Related Accidents During the Holiday Season
Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) December 07, 2011
The Atlanta personal injury attorneys of Webb, Wade & Taylor LLC are prepared to help individuals who have been injured in an accident with an intoxicated driver during the holiday season. During the holiday season, as friends and family meet at parties and other social gatherings, the consumption of alcohol is a common occurrence. The vast majority of those who choose to drink at these occasions do so responsibly. Unfortunately, however, some individuals act irresponsibly and decide to get behind the wheel after becoming intoxicated. This poses a significant threat to the health and safety of others on the road during the holiday season.
A long-term study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reveals that the number of car accidents caused by intoxicated drivers increases significantly during the holiday season. Between 2001 and 2005, traffic fatalities involving intoxicated drivers increased approximately 25% during the Christmas holiday period and 50% during the New Year’s holiday. Overall, an average of around 1,200 fatal accidents are caused by intoxicated drivers each holiday season, and the Centers for Disease Control estimate that another 25,000 Americans will be injured in these types of accidents over the same period.
Injuries resulting from accidents involving a drunk driver are often considerably serious. In many cases, they may require the individual to pursue costly medical care, and they can also lead to a loss of income from time spent recovering from the injury. Those who experience these unfortunate consequences as the result of someone else’s reckless and irresponsible choice shouldn’t have to deal with the situation by themselves. The Atlanta car accident lawyers of Webb, Wade & Taylor, LLC are prepared to offer their services to all Atlanta residents who are injured by a drunk driver over the holiday season.

New Website Launches Geared to Helping Consumers Find Reputable Florida Personal Injury Lawyers
New Website Launches Geared to Helping Consumers Find Reputable Florida Personal Injury Lawyers
Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) October 7, 2009
Jason Deitch, Esq. announced today the launch of a new website iNeedAPersonalInjuryLawyer.com to help consumers navigate the confusing waters when looking for Florida personal injury lawyers.
“How do you know the lawyer you found via the internet, a T.V. commercial, lawyer referral service, or the yellow pages is the right lawyer for you?” said Jason Deitch. “I created ineedapersonalinjurylawyer.com to take all of the guess-work out of hiring a lawyer. The hiring of a lawyer is a crucial decision for one who’s life has been dramatically altered as the result of serious injuries caused by the negligence of another, and choosing a lawyer that is not up to the challenge of a particular case can have disastrous consequences. The problem is that with all of the fancy websites and other lawyer advertisements, it is easy to end up with the wrong lawyer. So often, people make decisions to hire lawyers based on impressions.”
Having run a personal injury law firm for 15 years, Mr. Deitch has an “insiders” perspective on what makes a great lawyer and created the website to combat the problems inherent in selecting the best possible Florida personal injury attorney for a particular individual. He also understands that it is not always the injury that determines what an insurance company might pay to settle a claim. “I can’t count how many times an insurance adjuster has stated to me that before they even look at the claimant’s injury, they look to see who the lawyer is, then look at who the doctors are” says Mr. Deitch.
Many times, a person goes to a Boca Raton personal injury attorney who will then refer them to a doctor for treatment. Unfortunately, there are many reasons why the Boca Raton Personal Injury lawyer may have chosen that doctor, not all of which have anything to do with the nature of the client’s injury.
About iNeedAPersonalInjuryLawyer.com
Clients of ineedapersonalinjurylawyer.com are referred to Florida personal injury attorneys who participate with the company by invitation only, and have been thoroughly vetted by, or are personally known to Mr. Deitch, to provide the highest quality of legal care available.
