They may sue you. You'll only be liable, however, if the dog has previously shown a violent propensity.
I have went without proper medical attention, had to seek that myself. Have not been compensated since December 12th 2016... Getting a total run around with employer's insurance

The answer is one that will depend on a plethora of facts, but it is likely yes. If you were injured at work, however, this will be a workers compensation issue, not a personal injury issue. It would be wise to contact a local personal injury lawyer.

You likely signed a waiver preventing you from doing so, but even if not the answer is likely no.

You may have a claim, but more facts would be required to know for sure. You should contact a local personal injury attorney for a free consultation.
i got my settlement which was 12500 I got my check for 3320 after payment to lawyer and my medical bills But theres a deduction explanation which one says 3000 to Geico. Which I dont understand because I have the Geico medical payment plan in my policy. I was wondering did they fool me?

The trucker would not be less responsible, but you may be considered to have contributed to the accident by being in their blind spot depending on how long you were there and other things.

I agree with my colleagues on this. Probably not the best way to express yourself, but also not a crime.
What are the laws in Indiana for dog bites? Isn't it the state law that you have to report every bite? I was told that a dog has to be quarantined for 10 days after he bites and it has to be reported. Is that correct? Are there some dog bite laws and where might I find them? Thank you.

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. If you were bitten I suggest you hire a local personal injury lawyer.

The fact that you're asking such a question is odd? Are you planning to hurt your mother or just being extra cautious? If it's the ladder I think you're putting too much thought into caring for a loved one.

In most situations, no. It's almost always the owner's fault.
Little girl we babysit was bit by my dog in the face. Parents say that if we put dog down they will not want anything other then that. Girl is 5 and tried to pull dog away from food that she had been giving him. What do i do
answered on Apr 28, 2017
I could never personally put a dog down, as I'm a dog lover and if this is the first time your dog has ever bit anyone you probably won't be held liable, but you will be the next time because the dog has already shown a violent propensity. You've got a tough decision to make and one... View More
