Riding a bus is a part of our everyday routine. It is in fact
one of the most common means of transportation. Like any kind of
vehicle, anyone can be involved in an accident as a driver of a
car, the other car, a pedestrian or just anyone. If you have
been one of them, you are entitled to file a claim. You can file
it against the bus owner of the bus company. However, usually,
the charge of this type struggle to acquire compensation for all
the losses, which includes lost wages, lost of earning ability,
medical expenses and emotional distress.

If you want to file for compensation, you need to follow some
basic steps. If you had been a victim, you need to see a doctor
at once. You should not underestimate any injury ho matter how
slight it is. Slight injuries might lead to serious cases
without you knowing it. Then you can sort all information that
you can collect such as the names, addresses, numbers and the
insurance information, which is from the other witnesses and
victims.

Only the enforcement officials can obtain information from the
victims. Investigators and insurance representatives may just
keep the claim complicated. A victim should always be careful in
giving relevant information to other people without the advice
of his lawyer. A victim should only make statements with his
lawyer.

When there is a motor vehicle accident, time is the important
factor in settling a claim. It is valuable and precious in
settling for a claim. It should be done immediately. If a public
means of transportation is involved in an accident, there could
be a big hope of winning the lawsuit. The public buses owners
need to make sure that they keep their passengers safe. They
should practice safety measures and conditions. They need to
count on the essential equipments to manage all the things that
are related to the business.

Now if you know someone who have been in a bus accident, remind
them that they have the sole right to fight for their condition
and safety. They should not hesitate to talk to a professional
lawyer regarding motor vehicle accidents. If it requires filing
for lawsuit and compensation, they should not think twice
because it can save their lives.

Going to hospital can be very stressful, whether you are being admitted for a minor operation or to be treated for something more serious. Being away from home and your family and possibly having to undergo surgery and painful procedures is an unhappy experience for most people. The only consolation is that you will soon be able to go home after having been looked after by people who are trained to make people better. Or so you thought.

Deaths from MRSA, which stands for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, doubled in the four years between 1999 and 2003. MRSA is often caught in hospitals by people who have been admitted for a relatively minor operation. Having to go to hospital to receive treatment for appendicitis or for a broken arm can suddenly become a very traumatic experience for someone if they catch a strain of the hospital super bug that of late has been spreading through hospital wards like wildfire.

What is MRSA?

Staphylococcus is a family of common bacteria which many people carry on their skin and can cause mild infection in an otherwise healthy person if it gets under the skin or into the lungs. A more serious infection can occur, such as boils or pneumonia and is difficult to treat when the staphylococcus is resistant to one or more of the conventional antibiotics. MRSA infections can be partly blamed on the overuse of antibiotic for every day illnesses. Many doctors prescribe antibiotics for people with viral infections, knowing that they will not get rid of them. This creates an environment where the body cannot fight infections easily and stronger courses of antibiotics need to be prescribed to get rid of the illness.

MRSA is caught through contact with a carrier. If it is passed on to a patient who has an illness already then a more serious infection may occur. This is where the problem with hospital caught infection lies and why many people are seeking to make a personal injury claim against health care providers such as hospitals.

Symptoms

MRSA can cause a broad range of symptoms depending on which part of the body is infected. The parts of the body infected can include surgical wounds, burns, catheter sites, eyes, skin and blood. It causes pain and swelling at the site of infection. The two reasons that people in hospital are more likely to catch MRSA are that firstly, people residing in hospitals are generally more likely to get an infection because they are older, weaker and sicker than the general population and secondly, because patients are close together in wards constantly being touched by doctors and nurses who have just touched other patients.

Do hospitals cause infections?

Cleanliness in hospitals is of paramount importance. MRSA is frequently transmitted between patients by hospital staff. Whilst many hospitals are now stringent about hand washing and most wards have antibacterial spray at the entrance of each ward, many cases of infection do slip through the net. Alongside many hospital beds are alarms so that patients can alert staff of a hygiene risk, such as a spillage. Visitors are also encouraged to clean their hands upon entering a ward.

Making a personal injury claim

If you have sustained an MRSA infection whilst being treated for something else then you may be able to make a personal injury claim. If it can be shown that your infection was caused by lack of cleanliness then it is possible that you could seek to claim compensation. In an isolated case it may be difficult to prove that the hospital was responsible for your illness; however when there is a widespread case of MRSA amongst patients then your claim may be brought. You may want to speak to a personal injury solicitor about your circumstances and get free legal advice before you proceed with your personal injury claim.

LAWYER ADVERTISING IN NEW YORK IS ABOUT TO CHANGE

Starting this fall, you no longer have to worry about seeing cheesy ads on television or in print from celebrities hawking lawyers and law firms in New York. It’s true. The advertising rules for lawyers are changing. No more Bill Shattner (from Star Trek) telling you how great a particular law firm is. No more photos of lawyers standing in front of a courthouse, or even inside a courtroom. Our rule-makers (and many lawyers) felt that many ads were simply degrading to the legal profession. (You think?)

Also banned are computer pop-ups, misleading testimonials and catchy nicknames that lawyers have used, like “The Hammer” or “Pit Bull.” Let me ask you a question. When you see an ad like that, do you really want to rush out and call someone because you saw a pop-up ad on your computer? Do your fingers rush to the phone to start dialing a lawyer because he tells you how quickly he can get you cash for your injuries? When you see an ad with a wrecked car and a person in a wheelchair, smiling, holding up a cardboard check with lots of zeros on it- does it make you want to throw up, or does it make you rush to the phone and call that lawyer?

I’ve written many articles on lawyer advertising, and recently wrote about why you won’t find a medical malpractice lawyer in the Yellow Pages. The reason is exactly why the advertising rules in New York are changing for lawyers. The ads are disgusting, and totally uninformative.

All lawyer ads say the same thing-FREE CONSULTATION…NO FEE UNLESS WE WIN…WE WIN MILLIONS…Is it any wonder that a consumer can’t pick a lawyer? Just look in your local yellow pages under the heading LAWYERS. You will easily see 40 pages of lawyer ads, ALL SAYING THE SAME THING. The only difference is the size of the ad, (2 page ad, 1 page ad, 3/4 page, 1/2, etc.)

The funny thing is that you could interchange the names on the ads in yellow pages, and it wouldn’t make any difference.

For those of you who missed my recent lawyer advertising article, I am reprinting it here:

Top 10 Reasons Why You Won’t Find A New York Injury Lawyer In The Yellow Pages

Open any yellow pages book in New York under the heading ‘lawyer’ and you’ll be immediately bombarded with every type of injury and claim you could ever make. Full page ads, double page ads, blazing color, unsightly photos, screaming bold headlines…how does an injured victim choose a lawyer among all this clutter?

Here’s a sampling of statements found in current yellow pages ads in the Greater New York Metropolitan area:

“Tough, aggressive, experienced.”
What does this mean? That you’re a pit bull who knows how to bark and bite?

“Serious trial lawyers for the seriously injured.”
What does this mean? That if you’re not seriously injured you need a trial lawyer who’s not serious?

“Over 70 years combined experience.”
What this means is that each attorney has limited experience, but if you pool everybody’s experience together, we can make is seem like we’ve been around for hundreds of years.

“Special consideration for senior citizens.”
This is an obvious play for cases involving elderly people. Just what special consideration would this firm give to senior citizens that it doesn’t give to all its’ clients?

“Experienced in obtaining large cash awards quickly.”
Does this mean that this firm never takes cases to trial? The only large awards that are resolved quickly are ones that are clear cut on liability, causation and damages. Do I want an attorney who is experienced in obtaining large cash awards slowly? What’s the rush? If I rush, isn’t there a good chance that I’ll get less money for my injuries than I deserve?

“You made a mistake once, now choose the right lawyer.”
Guess what type of law this firm practices? Divorce.

“Get the money you deserve!”
OK, sign me up and show me the money. What if I deserve more than you can get for me?

“Call the law firm that never sleeps.”
That’s an interesting way to distinguish oneself. Being up 24 hours a day, bleary eyed, and tired? If you never sleep, how can you adequately represent injured victims?

Photo of lawyer holding briefcase in one hand, large cardboard check in other, smiling. Client, on crutches, in a leg cast, looking with total glee at the cardboard check, with her hands open wide as if to exclaim “WOW!” Give me a break. Believe it or not, this violates the disciplinary rules in the State of New York. It’s a no-no.

How about an ad without any name, or address, just an 800 phone number?
No good. Violates the rules. Would you call a ‘no-name’ law firm?

All these ads make you feel rushed to get your cash. Sort of makes you feel “lucky” you got hurt, doesn’t it? So, with all of these great lawyer ads, how does a consumer who’s been injured pick the right one? Do you have to call each and every one? That would be extremely time consuming and not very effective.

Do you trust the firm because they show pictures of crashed cars and an ambulance nearby? How about the photo of a worker falling in mid-air from a scaffold? Can you relate to him? Maybe you can relate to the photo of the elderly woman slipping on ice and another photo of her lying on a stretcher in the hospital? Do these illustrations and photos make you all warm and fuzzy about the law firm you’re about to call? I personally don’t think so.

Here’s the top 10 reasons you won’t find a New York Injury Lawyer from an ad in the yellow pages:

1. You can’t tell one ad apart from the other.
2. The lawyer ads all say the same thing.
“Call me,” “Personal attention,” “Large Cash Awards,” “Lots of experience,” “Pick me, ooh, pick me!”
3. Many ads scream at you, without telling you how they can help.
4. Do you call a firm just because they have a larger ad than someone 20 pages into the book?
5. Every ad says that I can talk to a lawyer for free, but what are the fees to handle my case? None of the ads talk about that.
6. Who pays the legal expenses if I don’t win my case? Many ads don’t tell you.
7. How do I know if one attorney is any better than the other? I can’t tell just from an ad.
8. Aren’t these ads just trying to sell me their services? “I don’t want a salesman, I want a lawyer who knows how to guide me through the legal system.”
9. I don’t want to go through 40 pages worth of yellow pages ads- I need help now. Maybe I’ll go online instead.
10. Do you really want to pick a lawyer they way you choose a plumber?

So, for those lawyers who claim that our first amendment rights are being infringed upon, I say- Nonsense. These ads are ridiculous. The only way a consumer can choose an attorney wisely is by getting as much information as they can. Making an informed choice is the only choice when choosing a lawyer.

When you call a lawyer’s office, ask if they give out free written information about how lawsuits work. Do they provide information, such as on a website, that answers frequently asked questions about injury victims and the legal process? Is there any way for you to get all this information BEFORE you ever step into a lawyer’s office?

There is…you just have to know where to look. For a good example go to my website, www.oginski-law.com where I have over 200 frequently asked questions. I have over 70 original articles posted online. On my site I have hundreds of law-related news articles, especially those involving jury awards and settlements in injury cases in New York and across the country.

I am very pleased to report that I get compliments every day from people across the country about the content and information on my website. That’s the key that most lawyers don’t understand. By providing relevant content to information-starved people, an injured victim can make a truly informed choice about their options.

It’s about time those lawyer ads were changed!

Every corporate entity must hold board meetings and keep corporate minutes. This doesn’t mean you have to be sucked in by the corporate minute preparation solicitations.

Corporate Minutes

Corporate minutes simply are documents detailing the events of a corporate board meeting. Typically, a corporation should have a board meeting every quarter if for no other reason than to force a review of where the business has been and where it is going. In most states, however, a corporation is only required to have only one annual meeting and keep the minutes of that meeting in the corporate book.

Corporate minutes are never filed with any government entity. The corporate minutes are an internal corporate matter and only come to light if there is a shareholder dispute or a claim by a third party that the corporation is a sham. Corporate minutes are typically taken during the board meeting by the Secretary, who subsequently files them in the corporate book.

Solicitations

America is a country of entrepreneurs and more than a few companies have found a business opportunity involving corporate minutes. Typically, these companies will offer to prepare your corporate minutes for a nominal fee. The solicitation tends to be in the form of a mailing with an envelope that looks similar to one you would receive from a government, but not so much as to get the solicitor in trouble with the state.

In large and impressive type, the solicitation will remind you that corporate minutes need to be prepared and the company is willing to do it for $100 or so. In much smaller type located on the bottom or back of the page, there will be a disclaimer noting the company is not a government entity and so on.

I don’t have anything against such companies, but recommend you don’t use them. The internal workings of a corporation and board of directors should be kept absolutely confidential. Board meeting inherently involve discussions of sensitive matters such as business strategies, new products, how to deal with competitors and financial issues. In my opinion, this information should never be given to any third party.

There is nothing wrong or illegal about companies offering to prepare your corporate minutes. It is just not a good choice.

A Chicago based computer user/writer, harmed by Adware, looks to stop Internet Adware programs from being able to hijack browser screens. His computer, damaged by privacy invasions, caused him to be unable to pursue work searches, or properly use the internet. He then felt compelled to ask others to join him in stopping this widespread abuse. It causes data loss, confusion among novice users, and millions of dollars in time and repair for consumers each day.

Chicago, IL July 16, 2004 — “The Internet will become the new place for the ‘Tin Men’ of old unless we stop them now!” says a Chicago based computer user who goes by the name Cody Windsong.
He now hopes to begin an independent Search Engine Optimization Company known as www.Onemanbandwidth.com that will help other small businesses succeed and offer free suggestions on how to defeat the offending companies.

He has been advising several friends for the past year on how to sell on the Internet, but says, despite his success in getting them highly visible in Search engines, confidence is eroding, even for the Internet businesses not involved in hijacking, pop-up ads, unauthorized privacy invasions, or other intrusive adware programs. “I have had four internet programs hijack my browser screen and make me believe that my computer was malfunctioning.”

Some of the companies,such as ShopNav, offer uninstall programs that do not properly work and Windsong, when he found it virtually impossible to contact company officals, decided to counter-attack.”Even some of the more conventional anti-spyware packages did not work. Once the damage is done there is often nothing that can be done to correct the damage,” says Winsong. “We have to stop them. They give the Internet and Internet business a bad name!”

Cody hopes to bring together the hundreds of thousands of people injured by these schemes and, by making the companies pay for their harms, thereby stopping unsolicited hijacking and privacy invasions.
