While no one ever anticipates the need for a personal injury lawyer, accidents do happen, and when they happen due to someone else’s negligent behavior, legal assistance may become necessary. There are thousands of personal injury attorneys in South Florida, and unfortunately, not all of them are exceptional, so it is extremely important to choose the right firm to handle your case. The average personal injury case can cost thousands of dollars in research and litigation, and not all legal firms have the resources necessary to successfully deal with such cases. If you choose a lawyer with limited resources, you may be pressed to settle a case too early and not get the fair compensation you deserve. Hiring a legal firm that can bring more resources to bear regarding experienced personnel and support staff increases the likelihood of a successful verdict in your favor. The most respected personal injury attorneys and firms offer both free consultation services and a contingency arrangement – simply stated, if your chosen attorneys don’t win the case or successfully force a settlement, they don’t get paid. The experienced and dedicated…Read More
According to published statistics, someone in the United States is hurt every two minutes – and someone dies every half hour – as a result of an alcohol-related accident. With plenty of parties taking place during this Holiday Season, the odds for accidents resulting from drinking and driving increase exponentially. One of the most common excuses we all hear is that anyone can handle a couple of drinks without problems, but this is simply not true. A research study conducted by the University of California San Diego revealed that people driving even with blood alcohol levels as small as 0.01% in their system face a higher risk of being involved in accidents that cause injuries much more severe than in those accidents where alcohol is not a factor, leading the researchers to conclude that there is no level of alcohol that can be considered safe for driving. Do yourself, your loved ones and everyone else around you a major favor this Holiday Season – if you drink, don’t get behind the wheel. It’s really that simple. And that concept, by the way, is important not…Read More
We’ve done our best to constantly remind you of the dangers of texting while driving. According to a University of Buffalo study, however, the number of injuries suffered by people texting while walking was much higher than for those texting while driving.

Slip and fall accidents, believed to be the second-leading cause of injuries in the United States, impact the U.S. economy heavily, with millions of dollars spent in hospitalization and medical expenses, and time missed from the workplace. The laws covering slip and fall accidents are complex, requiring many issues to be analyzed before fault can be assigned and negligence (and liability) can be determined. While the majority of these accidents result from improper property design or poor property maintenance, other factors – such as ongoing construction or adverse weather conditions – may come into play. Under the law, property owners are required to take reasonable care in the maintenance of their premises, so that they can avoid the risk of exposing others to the harm of a slip and fall accident – but this isn’t always the case. For instance, if you were not advised with appropriate signs of possible hazards, the establishment where you suffered your slip and fall may be held liable for your injuries. However, it is not merely enough for the property owner to post warning signs; such signs must be…Read More
People who have suffered a serious personal injury may experience feelings of stress and trauma well after they have completed medical rehabilitation. While it is normal to experience these feelings (which may include general confusion, irritability, anxiety, sadness, helplessness and insomnia), it is just as important to understand that if the stress remains constant, and continues to affect your work and social life, psychological counseling may be needed to resume a normal lifestyle.

When someone has died not as a result of natural causes, but due to another person’s or entity’s gross negligence or misconduct, the individual’s passing is legally considered a “wrongful death.” Numerous and different circumstances may be involved to encompass such negligence or misconduct, including medical malpractice or bad drugs; automobile, motorcycle or boating accidents; workplace accidents; product malfunction; unsafe conditions; or even outright malice. While no amount of reparations can replace the death of a loved one, you should always demand justice, holding the responsible party or parties accountable for their actions, and obtaining proper compensation for the financial and emotional loss suffered by you and your family – including medical costs, loss of future earnings, and non-monetary damages such as loss of companionship and emotional anguish. If you have lost a loved one due to wrongful death in South Florida, you should seek the help of an experienced law firm. The Wrongful Death attorneys at Fenstersheib Law Group, P.A., are ready to assist you in this difficult time of your life, with the full knowledge and expertise acquired over more than three decades of legal…Read More
Lately, it seems as though almost every road we travel in South Florida is undergoing some type of construction work. While improving our roadways is both good and necessary, and road maintenance and construction are vital components to the ongoing growth of our State, these activities can also lead to the creation of road hazards, which may result in accidents and injuries to drivers, passersby and the construction workers themselves. You should be aware that, in the majority of cases, independent contractors are hired by State authorities to perform the construction and maintenance work on our highways. While construction companies and contractors have an obligation to ensure public safety, they might not be totally familiar with all State safety laws regarding highway construction projects, such as the proper placement of the necessary road signs, unmarked road hazards, and scattered debris resulting from the construction process. Fortunately, these contractors are required to have liability insurance to protect the public in the event of an accident. If you have been involved in an accident related to highway construction work in South Florida, you may be entitled to monetary damages.…Read More
When head injuries are suspected after a car crash, immediate medical treatment is of utmost importance. Although signs of head trauma can be readily apparent immediately after a car accident, mild head injuries may not result in any major symptoms and may even be confused with symptoms of other types of medical conditions. But symptoms may indeed show up well after the fact that could indeed be a delayed result of the accident. These may include blurred vision, confusion and disorientation, loss of memory and lack of concentration, headaches, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. If you or a loved one have been involved in an automobile accident, and the extent of the injuries was not fully apparent at the time of the accident, please be aware that you still have legal recourses available, and the skilled and experienced attorneys at the Fenstersheib Law Group, P.A. have been helping automobile accident victims for more than three decades. Let us put that experience to work for you – we stand by our long history of compassion, integrity, and tenacity in bringing justice for the injured. Call us today,…Read More
