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.

Reducing Car Accident Risks For Young Drivers | Car Accident Attorney College Park

The potential for car accident injury is an inherent risk in driving.  So minimizing that potential is important. Young drivers are at an increased risk for accidents. Properly preparing, training and monitoring your young driver can make all the difference. Here are a few things you can do to that may help reduce the driving risks your young driver faces:

MONITOR THEM: It may seem invasive, but remember that driving is a privilege, and your young driver needs to view it that way. There are  now many ways to monitor speed, location and distractions. Your new driver will likely be much more responsible if they know you are watching.

BE A POSITIVE EXAMPLE: You can’t tell your young driver not to text, eat and speed while driving if you do those things in front of them. Your example sets the stage for them. The best way to encourage them to be a safe driver is by being one yourself.

SET CONSEQUENCES FOR BREAKING THE RULES: If your new driver breaks any of the rules you set, have firm consequences. Do not tolerate unsafe driving, intoxicated driving, or sneaking and driving without permission. Stick to whatever punishment you set so they understand that their violation of the rules is serious.

Still, even when we do our best to protect our young drivers they can still end up in a car accident. It is important that you protect their rights if they are injured in car accident. We are experienced College Park car accident attorneys and work hard to ensure that your young driver is fully compensated for all monetary loss as well as pain & suffering.

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.

Protecting our clients’ rights is paramount to our practice.  We take a personal approach and get to know the people we are representing. We truly care about our clients and work as hard as we can on their behalf. Here are a few client testimonials and reviews we would like to share with you…

“The Foster Firm did what another firm could not do. I am very grateful that the Foster Firm was able to take my case that a previous lawyer neglected and not only cleaned up the mess that was made, they also turned it around giving me sound advice, great service and an even better settlement.” 

~ Jasmine M.

I retained Attorney Keith Foster for my auto accident in 2008, because of his hard work and dedication the claim settled for the policy limit of $100,000. Years later I was involved in another auto accident and I called an Attorney I could trust, an Attorney who would do his best for the best settlement, an Attorney who stands by his client %100. I called Attorney Keith Foster again and again he settled the claim for the policy limit of $100,000."

~ Saundra L.
