Summertime Safety – Preventing Injuries & Reducing Risks

Summertime brings fun, sun, barbecues, road trips and more. With so much excitement going on, sometimes safety can take a backseat. It’s important though to be aware of some of the safety risks that are a part of summer fun so you can take precautions to help minimize your risks. Here are a few safety tips you may want to consider:

ONLY VISIT SAFE WATER AREAS: Who doesn’t like a refreshing swim or soak on a hot summer day?  You and your family need to keep safety in mind though when you decide to visit any local pool or lake. Make sure there are trained life guards on duty, you have a life vest or flotation device to use and never leave children unattended. 

READY YOUR CAR FOR THE ROAD: Summer road trips aren’t so fun if you suddenly find yourself broken down on the side of the road. Be sure your car is tuned up, tire pressure is checked and you have emergency food and water before you hit the road for a summer getaway.

STAY HYDRATED & COOL: So many people get sick, and even die from, heat exhaustion. If you spend a lot of time outdoors during the summer months, staying hydrated and taking breaks is imperative.  The body loses so much fluid when you spend time in the blazing heat, so drink lot of water throughout the day.  Also, give your body lots of opportunities to periodically cool down as well. 

Enjoy the summer and all it has to offer, but do it safely.  If you happen to be injured this summer by no fault of your own, call The Foster Firm. We specialize in personal injury and worker’s comp claims. We’re always here to help and believe in protecting your rights.

Tips On Securing A Fair Injury Settlement | Attorney College Park

When you are injured due to another’s fault or negligence it can result in great stress, physical pain and emotional anguish. There is nothing wrong with seeking just compensation for what you are going through. We work with clients everyday helping them put their lives back together again. Here are a few tips on securing a fair injury settlement:

1. See A Doctor Immediately: Do not assume that you are fine or will be fine? Injuries often show no initial signs or just minimal signs. This does not mean you have not had a serious injury. Explain in detail to your physician how you were injured and get thoroughly examined and treated immediately. 

2. Keep Detailed Records: Whenever safely possible, make a record of everything that happens from the time of the injury and after. Notate related phone calls, doctor visits and your pain levels. Also, take pictures of the accident scene if possible.

3. Hire An Experienced Injury Attorney:  Many times insurance companies may contact you with a low ball settlement offer before you have a chance to seek professional counsel. You need to hire a trusted personal injury attorney that is experienced in injury claims. At The Foster Firm, we have the knowledge and qualifications to help you win your case. 

Protect yourself after injury. Fair compensation is your right. Feel free to contact us if you have been injured. We can answer all of your questions and will help to protect your rights.

Preventing Injury In Dangerous Winter Weather | Personal Injury Lawyer College Park

This winter has been a tough one here in Atlanta. Winter storms have created dangerous weather conditions that can cause injury to your person and property.  Ice, freezing temperatures and high winds can reek havoc in many different ways.  From downed power lines to icy roads, it is important to be aware of your surroundings during a winter storm so you can protect yourself. Here are a few tips to help you prevent injury in dangerous winter weather:

MINIMIZE TRAVEL: Roads and highways  can be a dangerous place during a storm due to black ice, poor visibility and distractions. Whenever possible stay home and out of the car.

PLAN AHEAD: Don’t wait until the last minute to prepare. Have food, water, flash lights, a weather radio and other emergency supplies ready to go well in advance of the storm. Also keep a full first aid kit within reach.

PREPARE YOUR PROPERTY: From your car to your walkway, prepare for the weather. Have salt, shovels, ladders, proper tires and any other things needed to keep your home and person safe. You don’t want anyone to slip on an icy walkway or be hit by falling ice. Make sure your home is a “safe zone", free of debris, ice and large icicles.

Protect Yourself From Injury During the Holiday Season | Personal Injury Firm

The holidays bring so much joy, fun and of course travel! During all the hustle and bustle, accidents and injury are bound to happen. Whether it is during shopping, driving or outdoor fun you never know when an accident may occur. No one wants their holidays to be ruined by injury.  Here are a few tips that can help you protect yourself from injury during the holidays.

PREPARE FOR HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES: Sledding, skiing and other outdoor fun are often a part of the holiday season. Being prepared with the proper safety gear, receiving proper instruction and choosing a safe location are all imperative to your safety.  

DRIVE DURING WAKING HOURS: Tired drivers are dangerous drivers. Even though it can be tempting to leave in the middle of the night and drive straight through to your destination to avoid traffic, it may not be the best decision. You need to be alert and focused when you are driving. Be sure you are well rested before you hit the road.

BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR DECORATIONS: Outdoor decorations, holiday light and Christmas trees are often part of the holiday festivities, but be safe with them. When using ladders, be sure it is sturdy and have a spotter. Be sure your tree is stable so that is doesn't fall over and keep it watered to prevent fires. Make sure any decorations inside or outside the home are not obstructing walkways. They should also be very secure as not to easy fall or shift, which could lead to injury. 

Everyone at the Foster Firm wishes you a happy and SAFE holiday season. If you or a loved one is injured this holiday season, we can help. We are experienced personal injury attorneys who care. Have great holiday!

Preventing Accidents During Halloween | College Park Accident Attorney

Halloween is such a fun time of year, but it can also be dangerous. Kids all dressed up, running around at night and hyper off of sugar can sometimes be a recipe for injury. Here are a few tips to help prevent an accident during Halloween:

1. Keep your home well lit all night. Make sure that trick or treaters can easily see their way to your door.  Visibility greatly reduces the risk of injury.

2. Make sure you walk way is clear. Remove any décor, furniture, plants, etc. that may impede a person’s path. The last thing you want is for someone to trip and injure themselves on your property.

3. Dress your kids in bright colors and put a reflector somewhere on their costume. You want to make sure a car can see them from a great distance away.

Everyone at the Foster Firm wishes you a HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Enjoy and be safe.  If someone you love is injured this Halloween, contact us to discuss your injury and protect your rights.

3 Factors To Consider In Proving Liability | College Park Personal Injury Attorney

When you are injured do to the fault of another it can be devastating to all aspects of your life.  Of course it’s natural to think the party at fault is automatically legally liable, but that is not the case. Liability has to be proven. Here are 3 factors to consider in proving liability:

1. The person who caused the injury or accident must be shown to have a "duty" to be careful toward the injured party. If they had no “duty” to be careful, you may not be able to prove liability.

2. You may have also been negligent or careless and contributed to your own injury. Still, in most states you can still get some compensation from another party(ies) who may have also been careless and  contributed to your injuries.

3. If an accident is caused on property that is poorly maintained or improperly built, the owner of the property is liable. It is the owners responsibility to maintain their property in a safe and responsible manner.  

These are just a few of the many factors that must be evaluated when proving liability in a personal injury case.  This is why having a knowledgeable and experienced personal injury attorney is crucial to winning your case and being compensated for you pain and losses.  The Foster Firm are expert Atlanta and College Park personal injury lawyers who work tirelessly to protect your rights.

What To Look For In A Personal Injury Attorney | College Park Personal Injury Attorney

Personal injury lawyers seem to be everywhere you turn. You see them on TV, hear them on the radio, some of you probably even receive direct mail from them now and then.  Still, when the time comes to choose a personal injury attorney you need to know what to look for.  Here are some things to consider when it comes to selecting a personal injury attorney:

COMPASSION COUNTS  When you are seriously injured, you feel upset and vulnerable in additional to actual physical pain as well. The last thing you need to  add to your problems is a lawyer that sees dollars signs when they look at you, rather than seeing you as a real person with serious emotional, physical and financial needs that need attention. Compassion cannot be underrated. When your attorney truly cares about you, that will translate into how hard they will work for you to win your case and get you the settlement you deserve.

PERSONAL ATTENTION   Is your attorney willing to give you one on one personal attention or will you just be pawned off on a low level associate or secretary whenever you need help or have questions?  Having a personal injury attorney who will take the time to consult with you and represent you personally can make all the difference in the world. You want to feel confident that you will have someone to depend upon that knows the law and will fight to protect your rights.

TRACK RECORD OF SUCCESS   Does your attorney have real hands on trial and settlement experience? Can they layout a history of a real cases and cash awards that they have won?  If they are vague or avoid these types of questions, this is not the personal injury attorney for you.  An experienced personal injury attorney is critical to winning your case.   

The Foster Firm knows personal injury law and has a track record of impressive awards. We care about our clients and work hard on their behalf. As respected College Park personal injury attorneys, we offer complimentary consultations because we want to earn your trust and your business.  Call us today for your free consultation.
