CMS http://www.fitzgeraldlaw.com/blog/untitled-1/ Welcome to the Fitzgerald Law Firm blog: An Ounce of Prevention. We will be posting on a variety of topics related to severe personal injury and wrongful death. Our blog will feature cases and tell the stories and lessons we’ve learned that can help prevent bodily injuries and wrongful death. We know that each case holds personal meaning for our clients, so instead of looking at our cases from a strictly legal perspective, our blog’s focus is on individuals and the stories behind our cases. It is our belief that by examining the stories behind accidents, we can draw valuable lessons on how to prevent harmful mishaps in the future. In our practice, we’ve witnessed individuals who need years of costly medical care after tragic injuries. Many of these individuals are unable to return to work and incur significant losses to their livelihood. We’ve also seen families lose loved ones due to the negligent behavior of companies, government, and individuals. At The Fitzgerald Law Firm, while we work to recover money for our clients, we also try to prevent injury, wrongful death and financial burdens from negligent causes. Our verdicts and settlements have totaled millions of dollars over the years, but we stand firm in the belief that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” We hope that you find our entries to be interesting and informative. From time to time, we will deviate from the law and opine about things that makes us happy, cause us concern, or things we think deserve the benefits of conversation. We welcome your comments, invite you to bookmark our posts and subscribe to our RSS feed. Please note that our blog posts do not constitute legal advice and your comments will not be treated as confidential. If you wish to discuss your legal matter with us privately, please contact our office for a consultation. ... Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:20:00 PDT
