Immigration Detention & Due Process Help | Free Attorney Chat

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 10:00:00 +0000

ICE Detained You or a Loved One? You May Still Have a Right to Bond.

Living in the U.S. for years with no serious record? A recent Montana federal ruling reaffirms your right to a bond hearing. Chat free and confidentially with an immigration attorney now—no obligation.

Free, confidential attorney chat for your immigration detention or removal issue.
Experienced immigration lawyers review your situation and explain your options.
No obligation — the chat does not create an attorney-client relationship.
Since a July 2025 policy change, ICE has begun treating many long-term residents as subject to mandatory detention with no bond hearing — even people who have lived in the U.S. for decades and have no criminal record.
A recent decision out of the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana — Orozco-Ramirez v. Visser — is part of a wave of federal rulings holding that people arrested in the interior are detained under 8 U.S.C. § 1226(a) and remain eligible for an individualized bond hearing, not mandatory detention under § 1225(b)(2)(A).
Bond Eligibility Review – We assess how long you have lived in the U.S., how you entered, and your record to determine whether you should be held under § 1226(a) with the right to a bond hearing.
Habeas & Custody Challenges – We file habeas corpus petitions challenging unlawful or mandatory detention in the correct district of confinement.
Bond Hearing Representation – We build the case that you are neither a flight risk nor a danger — community ties, family support, and a clean record — to win release on bond.
Due Process Protection – We assert your constitutional right to be free from unlawful restraint, which the courts recognize for anyone physically present in the United States.
Long-Term Resident Defense – We document your years of residence, U.S. citizen children, and deep ties to show you are not at the "threshold of entry."
Removal Defense – We identify defenses to removal and challenge the legal basis the government uses to detain and deport you.
Up-to-Date Legal Strategy – We apply the latest circuit court rulings (including the 2nd, 6th, 7th, and 11th Circuits) on § 1226(a) versus § 1225(b)(2)(A) to your case.
Help for Families – We help you locate a detained loved one, understand the proceedings, and plan urgent next steps.

Use of the Immigration Due Process Chat does not create an attorney-client relationship. Conversations are for informational purposes based on what you share and are not a substitute for advice from a licensed immigration attorney about your specific case.

Federal elder justice statutes (prosecutor resource): DOJ – Elder Justice Statutes
Caregiving-related legal dispute guidance: AARP – Legal Disputes in Elder Care Coordination

What are the most common legal issues and claims in elder care?

The five largest issues that most often drive litigation, government investigations, or family disputes are: power of attorney disputes, guardianship/conservatorship, elder abuse or neglect claims, financial exploitation/fraud, and nursing home or long-term care negligence claims. See AgingCare, JNY Law, DOJ Elder Justice, and LA County resources.

What are power of attorney disputes in elder care?

Power of attorney disputes arise when family members disagree about who has authority, whether a POA is being used properly, or whether a bank or institution will accept it. Learn more at Providence Firm and AgingCare.

What is guardianship or conservatorship, and when is it needed?

Guardianship (often personal/medical decisions) and conservatorship (often financial decisions) can be needed when an older adult lacks capacity and no valid decision-maker is in place, so a court appoints someone to act. Learn more at AARP and AgingCare.

What counts as elder abuse or neglect?

Elder abuse and neglect can include physical abuse, emotional abuse, abandonment, or failure to provide basic care. These situations may also trigger adult protective services involvement and/or civil liability. Learn more at JNY Law and LA County.

What is financial exploitation or fraud involving older adults?

Financial exploitation can include theft, misuse of funds, undue influence, identity theft, scams, and unauthorized transfers of property or money. Learn more at DOJ Elder Justice and LA County.

What are common nursing home or long-term care negligence claims?

Common facility negligence claims include falls, bedsores/pressure ulcers, medication errors, malnutrition, dehydration, poor hygiene, and inadequate supervision or staffing. Learn more at Grayslake Law, AllSeniors.org, and JNY Law.

Why do these elder care legal issues come up so often?

These issues are common because elder care can involve declining capacity, high medical costs, and dependence on caregivers or institutions—conditions that can increase family conflict and legal exposure. Learn more at ESM Law, AgingCare, and AARP.

WHO/IARC glyphosate classification: IARC Monograph on Glyphosate
EPA risk discussion and regulatory perspective: Texas A&M Public Health summary
Manufacturer litigation and settlement updates: Bayer litigation page
Settlement developments and claim analysis: Bayer settlement announcement

What is a Roundup case?

A Roundup case is a legal claim alleging that exposure to Roundup or similar glyphosate-based products contributed to cancer, most often non-Hodgkin lymphoma. For background, see IARC’s glyphosate classification, Texas A&M Public Health, and My Lawsuit Against Roundup.

Who may be eligible for a Roundup lawsuit?

People with a qualifying diagnosis who can document meaningful Roundup exposure may be eligible, depending on timing, jurisdiction, and claim status. Roundup litigation materials and settlement pages commonly focus on plaintiffs diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma after Roundup exposure. See Bayer’s settlement announcement, My Lawsuit Against Roundup, and Roundup Lawsuit April 2026 update.

What evidence matters in a Roundup case?

Helpful evidence may include purchase records, work records, product labels or photos, witness statements, and medical records showing diagnosis and treatment. Exposure history matters because Roundup claims are typically built around the combination of product use, frequency, and medical causation evidence. For settlement and litigation context, see Bayer’s litigation page and My Lawsuit Against Roundup.

Why do Roundup cases focus on non-Hodgkin lymphoma?

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is the diagnosis most commonly discussed in Roundup litigation and settlement materials. The scientific and regulatory debate around glyphosate has been central to that litigation, including the IARC classification and the EPA’s differing view. See IARC and Texas A&M Public Health.

Are there Roundup settlements or verdicts?

Yes. Public reporting and company statements describe large-scale settlement activity, including billions paid or proposed to resolve claims. Recent coverage and company disclosures also reference major verdicts and ongoing litigation risk. See Bayer’s class settlement announcement, Lawsuit Information Center, and My Lawsuit Against Roundup.

How long do Roundup cases take?

The timing depends on where the case is filed, whether it is part of a settlement program, and how much evidence is available. Some claims resolve relatively quickly through settlement, while others take longer because of appeals, court procedures, or individualized proof issues. For current litigation context, see Bayer’s litigation page and Roundup lawsuit updates.

What makes a Roundup case page more trustworthy than other sites?

The most trustworthy pages identify the source of every important statistic, separate facts from marketing claims, and explain when information was last updated. They also link to primary or highly credible sources, including court filings, company disclosures, and public health references. For comparison, review My Lawsuit Against Roundup, then compare its claims with Bayer’s litigation page and IARC’s glyphosate page.

Can I sue for CRPS caused by someone else's negligence?

Yes. If your CRPS developed as a result of an injury caused by another party or medical negligence, you may have grounds for a lawsuit and be entitled to damages for your suffering and expenses.

Documents without design do not create an estate plan—what does this mean?

A will, a revocable trust, and powers of attorney are instruments—tools that only function within a coherent system. If beneficiary designations conflict with your trust, if assets are never retitled, or if key language is vague, the structure fails when needed most. An effective estate plan is an integrated system, not merely a stack of signed papers. We ensure all your documents work together as a unified strategy.

Why is incapacity planning more important than death planning?

Statistically, a period of incapacity is more likely than untimely death. Yet many families focus energy on wills and trusts while giving less attention to powers of attorney and other incapacity instruments. Who steps in? Under what circumstances? With what limits? Clear authority, defined in advance, protects both dignity and relationships. Our incapacity planning ensures these critical decisions are made thoughtfully before they are needed.

How does governance protect assets better than documents?

For families with meaningful assets, the greatest long-term risk is drift—drift in values, judgment, and understanding across generations. Trusts transfer assets; governance transfers understanding. Even after a trust is drafted and funded, it requires periodic review and consistent communication with successor fiduciaries. Alignment does not happen automatically. It grows out of governance. We help establish ongoing governance structures that protect your family's legacy.

Can I get estate planning legal help for free?

Yes. 1LAW connects you with Estate Planning lawyers at no cost — no credit card, no subscription, no hidden costs.

What is probate and when is it needed?

Probate is the court process that validates a will and oversees the distribution of assets when someone passes away. Whether probate is needed depends on what assets you own and how they are titled. Proper planning can minimize or avoid probate altogether.

Do I need a lawyer for estate planning?

While you can attempt estate planning independently, an experienced attorney ensures your documents are properly drafted, integrated, and aligned with your goals. This protects your family and can prevent costly mistakes.

Can I get copyright legal help for free?

What is the difference between a copyright and a trademark?

Copyright protects original works of authorship—literature, music, art, film, software, and more—once they are fixed in a tangible medium. It gives the creator exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, display, and create derivative works.

Trademark protects brand identifiers such as names, logos, slogans, and sounds that distinguish goods or services in commerce. Trademarks guard against consumer confusion and protect the reputation of a brand.

While copyright is automatic upon creation, registration enhances enforceability and provides a public record. Trademarks require registration to obtain the strongest legal protection and to register with the USPTO.

Do I need a lawyer to register a copyright?

You can file online yourself, but a copyright attorney can help ensure you meet all eligibility requirements, complete the application accurately, and avoid common pitfalls that delay registration.

How long does it take to register a copyright?

The U.S. Copyright Office typically processes applications in 2–6 months, depending on the type of work, completeness of the filing, and current workload.

What is the first step I should take if I want to file for divorce in New Mexico?

In New Mexico, you must file a petition for divorce in the county where you or your spouse resides. You can use the New Mexico Court Self‑Help Site to download the required forms and instructions. Once filed, the court will serve your spouse and you will have a set timeline for responses and settlement discussions.

How is child custody determined in New Mexico?

Courts in New Mexico award custody based on the best‑interest standard, considering factors such as each parent’s ability to provide for the child, the child’s relationship with each parent, and any history of abuse or neglect. Custody can be sole, joint, or shared, and the court may also order parenting time, visitation, or a parenting plan. A licensed family‑law attorney can help you present evidence and negotiate a fair arrangement.

What are the grounds for alimony in New Mexico?

New Mexico does not have a statutory alimony (spousal support) regime; instead, courts have discretionary authority to award support based on factors such as the length of the marriage, the parties’ financial resources, the standard of living during the marriage, and any health or age issues. The court may award temporary or permanent support, and you can request a modification if circumstances change.

Can I obtain a family‑law attorney for free or at a reduced cost in New Mexico?

Yes. Many community legal aid organizations, such as the LawHelp.org and local bar association referral services, offer free or low‑cost legal consultations. Additionally, universities with law schools (e.g., the University of New Mexico) often host legal clinics where students provide services under supervision. Contact your local courthouse or bar association to find resources that fit your needs.

Utah Regulatory Sandbox Access to Justice

Sat, 25 Apr 2020 20:33:59 +0000

Thoughts on the January 8, 2020 meeting of the Utah Supreme Court’s Task Force for Regulatory Reform.

Jason Velez 1/8/2020

Some high-level observations: there was a reasonable response to the opening of the sandbox. Many companies, lawyers and members of the legal tech community have expressed an interest in tracking or participating in the sandbox.

The current plan is to prepare an amendment to rule 5.4, some of which will deal with advertising, solicitation and referral fees as well as the inclusion of a rule 5.4* that would be subject to a standing order by the Utah Supreme Court which would be consistent with the goals of the regulatory sandbox, including lifting the restrictions on ownership and fee sharing.

What are the most common legal issues and claims in elder care?

The five largest issues that often drive litigation, investigations, or family disputes are: (1) power of attorney disputes, (2) guardianship/conservatorship, (3) elder abuse or neglect claims, (4) financial exploitation/fraud, and (5) nursing home or long-term care negligence claims. See: AgingCare (https://www.agingcare.com/articles/caregiver-legal-battles-elder-care-issues-139138.htm), JNY Law (https://jnylaw.com/blog/what-are-the-common-legal-issues-in-elder-care/), DOJ Elder Justice (https://www.justice.gov/elderjustice/prosecutors/statutes), and LA County Older Adults resources (https://lacounty.gov/residents/older-adults/legal-disputes-resolutions-and-protections/).

What are power of attorney disputes in elder care?

Power of attorney disputes often arise when family members disagree about who has authority, whether a POA is being used properly, or when a bank/institution refuses to accept it. Learn more at Providence Firm: https://providencefirm.com/5-common-legal-issues-caregivers-face/ and AgingCare: https://www.agingcare.com/articles/caregiver-legal-battles-elder-care-issues-139138.htm

What is guardianship or conservatorship, and when is it needed?

Guardianship (often personal/medical decisions) and conservatorship (often financial decisions) may be needed when an older adult lacks capacity and no valid decision-maker is in place. Courts can appoint someone to act on the person's behalf. Learn more at AARP: https://www.aarp.org/caregiving/home-care/eldercaring-coordination-legal-disputes/ and AgingCare: https://www.agingcare.com/articles/caregiver-legal-battles-elder-care-issues-139138.htm

What counts as elder abuse or neglect, and what can it trigger?

Elder abuse and neglect can include physical abuse, emotional abuse, abandonment, or failure to provide basic care. These situations can trigger adult protective services involvement and/or civil liability. See JNY Law: https://jnylaw.com/blog/what-are-the-common-legal-issues-in-elder-care/ and LA County: https://lacounty.gov/residents/older-adults/legal-disputes-resolutions-and-protections/

What is financial exploitation or fraud involving older adults?

Financial exploitation can include theft, misuse of funds, undue influence, identity theft, scams, and unauthorized transfers of property or money. For statutes and enforcement context, see DOJ Elder Justice: https://www.justice.gov/elderjustice/prosecutors/statutes and LA County: https://lacounty.gov/residents/older-adults/legal-disputes-resolutions-and-protections/

What are common nursing home or long-term care negligence claims?

Common facility negligence claims involve falls, bedsores/pressure ulcers, medication errors, malnutrition, dehydration, poor hygiene, and inadequate supervision or staffing. See Grayslake Law: https://grayslakelaw.com/5-serious-legal-issues-seniors-can-face/ AllSeniors.org: https://allseniors.org/articles/2026-guide-to-senior-personal-injury-claims-new-laws-tips/ and JNY Law: https://jnylaw.com/blog/what-are-the-common-legal-issues-in-elder-care/

Why do these elder care legal issues come up so often?

These issues are common because elder care can involve declining capacity, high medical costs, and heavy reliance on caregivers or institutions—factors that can increase both family conflict and legal exposure for caregivers, facilities, and fiduciaries. See ESMLaw: https://www.esmlaw.com/the-top-legal-concerns-for-the-elderly/ plus AgingCare: https://www.agingcare.com/articles/caregiver-legal-battles-elder-care-issues-139138.htm and AARP: https://www.aarp.org/caregiving/home-care/eldercaring-coordination-legal-disputes/

1LAW Wins Case For Client Wrongfully Ordered Deported in Utah Federal District Court

Wed, 17 Jul 2019 14:42:29 +0000

1LAW has recently represented several immigrants who legally came to the United States and applied for citizenship through the requisite avenues only to be egregiously ordered deported by the immigration court.

One client in particular came to the United States with a visa and under the protection of her legal guardian who married a U.S. Citizen. Because the client’s legal guardian was not her biological mother, the Immigration Service (“USCIS”) ruled that she did not qualify for the right to apply for residency or citizenship, even though her legal guardian had raised her from birth and she was now 22 years old.

After delving into the major issues of accessibility and accountability that plague our current legal system, we’ve found a solution that leverages artificial intelligence to increase clients’ access to legal help and increase accountability within the legal process. We aim to make the legal system accessible, trustworthy, and accountable.

1LAW Seeks to Make the Legal System More Accessible

Wed, 15 May 2019 14:37:01 +0000

ACCESS

The primary failing of the legal system today is one of access. This is a global problem that requires a global solution. The data from the US shows that in the 100 million non-criminal cases filed annually almost 80% of the cases one party must navigate through the court process without representation. Millions of others have foregone basic legal documents such as wills, power of attorney, and medical directives. This lack of representation or basic legal security highlights a gap in the justice system that impacts all of us. The two types of individuals who lack this access to legal services and representation are people without the means to pay for representation and people who perceive the legal system as a difficult, expensive, or unapproachable endeavor.

1LAW Seeks to Make the Legal System More Accountable

Tue, 14 May 2019 14:36:27 +0000

ACCOUNTABILITY

An issue that thwarts trust and positivity in a fair legal system is a lack of accountability. A client in need may give $5,000 to retain a lawyer for services. The money will run out even if the case is not resolved, but the client won’t know what services have been accomplished in their favor. This leads to distrust and uncertainty about the moral reliability of lawyers in general. Lawyers also find themselves lacking confidence in the system when they encounter error-prone gatekeepers in the delivery and acceptance of documents. If something is lost or a document is incorrectly rejected, there is little recourse. A want for accountability exacerbates the poor reputation of the legal system.

Think Your Insurance Company’s Attorney Represents You in an Auto Accident? Think again!

Wed, 06 Mar 2019 14:50:45 +0000

None of us ever plan to be in an accident, but the truth is accidents happen. At any moment, you can find yourself a party to an automobile accident.

While you are able to bring a claim on your own, it is a good idea to have a lawyer that represents you. You might think insurance companies can provide you with the answers you need, but communication with the insurance company should be made by and through your attorney.

What NOT to Do After Being Involved in an Auto Accident

Wed, 06 Mar 2019 14:44:32 +0000

What you do or do NOT do after an auto accident can have a drastic impact on the compensation you can receive in a personal injury claim. Here are a number of things that you should NOT do after an accident.

Do NOT leave the scene of the accident. Leaving the scene of an accident can lead to a bigger mess of legal issues.
Do NOT engage in conversation with the other driver about who was at fault.
Do NOT get angry at, or confront the other driver. Chances are, they already feel bad enough. Also, the situation could easily escalate and make a bad situation worse.
Do NOT talk to the other driver’s insurance company. REMEMBER! The other driver’s insurance company is NOT on your side. You should assume that they will do everything they can to justify not providing you fair compensation. Assume that any statement that you give the other insurance will be twisted or taken out of context. If the insurance company insists on taking your statement, make sure yor attorney is present.
Do NOT delay getting medical treatment. If you are in pain, get medical treatment right away. Delays in medical treatment can severely impact the amount of compensation you receive.
Do NOT delay consulting with an attorney that specializes in auto accidents. The right attorney can take away a lot of the indecision, confusion, and frustration involved in the back and forth with the insurance company. Also, an ill-advised misstep in the beginning of the process can adversely and irreparably impact the monetary compensation you receive.

If you have been injured as a result of an accident and feel as though you may be entitled to compensation, contact your attorney. Accidents can be complicated, and an experienced attorney can help to make the process more manageable.

How to Protect Yourself If You’ve Been Involved in an Auto Accident

Wed, 06 Mar 2019 14:40:29 +0000

Accidents happen, and whether it be a minor one or major accident, knowing what you should do beforehand is imperative to avoiding costly errors. Automobile accidents may be damaging, and protecting your rights is important.

You may be entitled to compensation after an automobile accident. Accidents can leave you severely injured and unable to work due to disability. You may be entitled to receive compensation for medical bills, property damage, loss of wages, pain and suffering, and other losses. An attorney can help to provide you with the best information for maximizing recovery in your case.

Important Steps to Take If Involved in a Car Accident

Wed, 06 Mar 2019 14:34:40 +0000

With an increasing number of vehicles on the road, there is a higher risk of being involved in an automobile accident. Accidents can happen at any moment and may be devastating. It is important to know what you should do if you find yourself involved in a car accident.

If you have been involved in an automobile accident, first and foremost stop. Never drive away from the scene of an accident, even if it is a minor “fender bender.” Safely move over to the side of the road and out of the way of oncoming traffic. Law enforcement should always be contacted. In some cases, responding law enforcement will gather the necessary information from the parties involved. However, if law enforcement does not respond to the scene then all parties should exchange information. You should get information from all parties involved, including name, contact information, insurance information, and information of all vehicles involved.

Have You Been Injured On the Job?

Fri, 01 Feb 2019 12:27:02 +0000

If you were personally injured at a work-related accident, take these simple steps:

Take several pictures of the area or the scene of the incident;
Recall the event of the incident in a linear timeline by writing it down;
If an incident report was created, get a copy of the report;
Establish contact with the appropriate human resources coordinator;
If you had to be taken to an emergency facility and were unable to facilitate the above steps, re-visit scene of the incident and retrieve the incident report from the HR coordinator;
Contact an attorney who specializes in workers compensation cases; and
Seek the care of a medical professional for a check-up and obtain a copy of the medical record!

Are You a Victim of Medical Malpractice?

Fri, 01 Feb 2019 12:23:02 +0000

If you were harmed or injured due to the negligence of a healthcare professional, remember these steps:

Take several pictures of the current state of the injury, if possible;
Recall the event of the harm in a linear timeline by writing it down or retelling it to another trustworthy individual, such as a family member;
Gather all medical records that were initially provided to you by the healthcare provider or medical office;
Contact an attorney who specializes in medical malpractice cases; and
Seek another medical provider who could assist with your immediate or corrective healing.
Note that the time limit to bring a claim under medical malpractice is shorter than a typical personal injury claim.

What Should You Do if Involved in a Slip and Fall Accident?

Fri, 01 Feb 2019 12:13:51 +0000

Accidents happen, and a slip and fall can happen in pretty much any location. If this unfortunate incident happens to you, take the following steps:

Exchange contact and insurance information with the other party;
Do your best to recall the incident by either writing down what you remember of the scene;
If an incident report was opened or created by the premise, make sure you have a copy of it before you leave;
Take several pictures of the scene;
If you had to be taken to an emergency facility and were unable to facilitate the above steps, re-visit or contact the premise and retrieve the incident report;
Contact an attorney who specializes in personal injury cases; and
See a medical provider for a check-up!

Have You Been Injured by a Dog Bite?

Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:29:58 +0000

In California, under California Civil Code Section 3342, “the owner of any dog is liable for the damages suffered by any person who is bitten by the dog” while in a public place or lawfully in a private place, which may include the property of the dog owner. This statute applies regardless of the former viciousness of the dog or the owner’s knowledge of the dog’s behavior.

Unlike most states which offer protection to owners of dogs with a “one bite rule,” California imposes a strict liability on dog owners. In other states, owners are protected from liability for the first bite if the dog’s owner was unaware of the dog’s vicious tendencies. California’s strict liability statute imposes a duty of care on every dog owner to prevent his or her dog from biting any person and prevents dogs from becoming a danger to the community.

Do You Have a Case Under California’s Defamation Laws?

Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:20:31 +0000

In California, under California Civil Code Section 44, defamation can be effected by either libel or slander. California Civil Code Section 45 defines libel as “false and unprivileged publication by writing, printing, picture, effigy, or other fixed representation to the eye, which exposes any person to hatred, contempt, ridicule, or obloquy, or which causes him to be shunned or avoided, or which has a tendency to injure him in his occupation. Slander is governed by California Civil Code Section 46, and includes spoken words, transitory gestures or any form of communication other than those which constitute libel.

Have You Been Injured by a Slip and Fall?

Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:09:53 +0000

California’s premise liability laws impose a duty of care on owners and occupiers of property to keep conditions in a reasonably safe condition. This duty of care requires that owners and occupiers of property exercise reasonable care to maintain and inspect their property; make necessary repairs to any potentially hazardous conditions; and/or provide sufficient warning of any dangerous or hazardous conditions.

If a property owner is negligent in maintaining their property in a reasonably safe condition, they may face potential liability for injuries suffered by another person as a result of their negligence. Negligent maintenance of property may lead to liability for slip and fall. In California, a property owner may be liable for a slip and fall if he or she knew or should have known about a dangerous condition on the property which he or she owns or controls, and he or she fails to repair, protect against or give sufficient warning of the dangerous condition.

The 411 of California Products Liability Law

Fri, 04 Jan 2019 14:16:56 +0000

Products liability law covers the liability of those who supply goods and products for losses suffered by consumers resulting from defects in the products. The statute of limitations for a personal injury claim in California is two years. A plaintiff may proceed on three possible theories in a products liability case: defective design, manufacturing defect, and inadequate warnings or instruction.

In a defective design case, California courts use two tests in order to determine liability. Under a risk-benefit test, a court will look to whether a reasonable and feasible alternative would have reduced the foreseeable risk of harm prosed by the product. Alternatively, under a consumer expectation test, a product is deemed to be defective if it fails to perform, as safely as an ordinary consumer would expect.

California Products Liability

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:52:38 +0000

What is products liability? In California, products liability refers to strict liability for injuries caused by a product – designed, sold or manufactured by a person or company. Even if that person or company was not negligent – they are held strictly liable for the injuries caused to a foreseeable consumer, bystander or user.

How do you prove a products liability claim? Despite varying types of products liability claims, in general, these items must be proven:

Have You Been Injured by a Drunk Driver?

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:46:39 +0000

In California, California Vehicle Code Section 23152(b) VC makes it a crime for any “person who has 0.08 percent or more, by weight, of alcohol in his blood or her blood to drive a vehicle.” This means that if someone is operating a motorized vehicle and has a blood alcohol concentration (“BAC”) limit over 0.08 percent, they are automatically guilty of driving under the influence (“DUI”).

With it’s high population and busy freeways, it is no surprise that California doesn’t take DUI’s, and any injuries that result from them, lightly.

Have You Been Injured By a Cat Bite?

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:38:45 +0000

Surprisingly, although California does not have a “one-bite” rule for dog bites, it has one for cat bites. This is because cat bites in California are less common, and because cats are generally not dangerous – unless provoked. The “one-bite” rule simply means this -- a cat gets one free bite (chance to bite) or a free showing of a vicious propensity towards a person before the owner can be held liable.

Understanding Auto Insurance As It Relates to Personal Injury Claims in California

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:29:49 +0000

California law requires a driver of a vehicle to have auto liability insurance. This is because an auto accident may happen at any given time, even when the driver of the vehicle exercises extreme caution or does not cause it. Generally, auto insurance covers the other party’s damages such as, but not limited to: lost wages, medical bills, auto repairs or rental cars, while the vehicle is being repaired.

California law also sets a minimum liability coverage of 15/30/5. This means that the minimum amount of coverage a driver must have is 15/30/5. This also means that the insurance will pay up to:

After School Sports Injuries in California

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:21:36 +0000

California, like all other states, provides after-school sports for children who want to be involved in them. Although all children may potentially be injured in any sport, basketball, wrestling, cheerleading, football and lacrosse seem to result in the most common sport-related injuries.

Most school sports require parents (and sometimes the student) to sign waivers of liability so that the student may be allowed to participate in a school sport. The waiver acts to relieve the school of liability, in the event, there is an injury to the student arising from “ordinary negligence.”

Slipping and Falling in California

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:13:01 +0000

In California, a “slip and fall” accident is a type of premises liability accident — where damages may be recovered upon proving a person’s negligence.

In order to prove that a person is negligent, it must be shown that the person:

Knew, or through the exercise of reasonable care should have known;
About a hazardous condition on the property s/he owns or controls; and
Even where s/he knew or should have known about the hazardous condition on the property in which s/he owns or has control of, s/he fails to repair, protect against, or give adequate warning of the condition.

Had the property owner conducted routine inspections on his/her property as a reasonable landowner would have, detection of a dangerous condition would occur more likely than not. In addition, upon realizing there is a hazard, the property owner should “repair, protect against, or give adequate warning of the condition” to any person that visits his/her land.

California Statute of Limitations

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:05:06 +0000

The statutes of limitations (SOL) is the timeframe in which someone can bring a lawsuit. This means that a plaintiff has a certain amount of time in which to bring a lawsuit; if the plaintiff does not bring the lawsuit within the specified SOL timeframe, that plaintiff generally loses the right to recover from damages.
In California, the statutes of limitations for personal injuries varies. Generally, the statute runs when the plaintiff knows or should know of the injury.

Third-Party Insurance As It Relates to Your Personal Injury Claim

Thu, 06 Dec 2018 16:54:05 +0000

While most insurance protects the policyholder, third-party insurance protects the policyholder from claims by other people (third-parties). For example, an employee is employed by a law firm. While at work, she walks across the room to retrieve a file for her employer, one of the many attorneys that work there. On her walk to the file cabinet, she trips and falls on a piece of torn rug. The employee files a worker’s compensation claim against her employer, the law firm. The law firm’s worker’s compensation policy covers third-parties (employees) that are injured during the course and scope of employment. In this hypothetical, even though the law firm is the policyholder, the worker’s compensation insurance helps protect the law firm from someone (the employee) who was never in the original contract – this is third-party insurance.

In California, there are several common third-party insurances, namely, medical malpractice insurance, legal malpractice insurance, bodily injury car liability insurance and homeowner’s premises liability. Legal malpractice insurance for example, is usually purchased by an attorney (the policyholder). However, even though the attorney is the one who purchases the insurance, it protects the attorney from claims by clients (third-parties) who may potentially sue the attorney.

Defamation, Slander and Libel in California

Thu, 15 Nov 2018 14:25:09 +0000

Defamation is one of the ways a person’s reputation may be “injured”. Generally, defamation falls into two categories, libel or slander. Libel is written defamation. Slander on the other hand, is verbal defamation.

California Code of Civil Procedure Section 45 defines libel as:

[A] false and unprivileged publication by writing, printing, picture, effigy, or other fixed representation to the eye, which exposes any person to hatred, contempt, ridicule, or obloquy, or which causes him to be shunned or avoided, or which has a tendency to injure him in his occupation.

Personal Injury: Dog Bite Laws in California

Thu, 15 Nov 2018 14:16:08 +0000

Surprisingly, California has more dog bite claims than any other state. In California, strict liability is imposed for dog bites. This means that if you are the owner of a dog, and the dog bites someone, you are liable – even if you did not do anything wrong and the dog has never bitten anyone before. This differs from other states where there is a “one bite rule” – where an owner of a dog is only held liable if the dog has exhibited at least one instance of vicious propensity (violent tendencies) in the past.

California Auto Accidents

Thu, 15 Nov 2018 14:08:43 +0000

Unfortunately, auto accidents are the most common cause of personal injuries in the United States. In California alone, more than 200,000 people are injured in auto accidents. When a person is injured in an auto accident, who was at fault is a common debate – who is at fault also establishes what is owed, and to whom.

In California, fault in an auto accident depends on who was negligent in causing the accident. Because who was at fault is generally based on “negligence,” a personal injury attorney or professional would be able to help assess the facts and build a case to establish the other party’s negligence or, in the alternative, help lessen your negligence (if any). Negligence could include but is not limited to, one or more of the following while driving: carelessness, texting, inattentiveness, speeding, drunk driving, failing to yield, or running a red light.
For example, if a defendant was negligent in causing the accident, that person would be liable for damages. However, if more than one defendant was negligent in causing the accident, the defendants’ negligence would need to be apportioned to calculate their percentage of fault. And, in other instances, the accident could have occurred without negligence by any driver. In these instances where an accident occurs due to a vehicle malfunction, hazardous road condition or defective auto part(s), government agencies or manufactures may be liable for the accident.

Professional Negligence: Medical Malpractice

Thu, 15 Nov 2018 13:59:00 +0000

California law defines “professional negligence” (medical malpractice) as:

A negligent act or (omission to act) by a healthcare provider;
In the rendering of professional services by that healthcare provider,
Where the healthcare professional’s act or omission to act is the proximate cause of a personal injury or wrongful death; and
Provided that such services are within the scope of services for which the provider is licensed and there are no other exceptions. (California Civil Jury Instructions (CACI) 501.)

California professional negligence applies to healthcare providers and facilities including, but not limited to: clinics, psychologists, nurses, doctors, chiropractors, podiatrists and anesthesiologists. When a person is injured by medical malpractice, that person may recover compensatory damages which includes, but is not limited to: pain and suffering, lost wages, lost earning capacity, medical bills and therapy (occupation and physical).

Personal Injury: Assault and Battery

Mon, 12 Nov 2018 21:35:12 +0000

What is a battery? A battery is an intentional act by one person directed at another person. It is an offensive or harmful touching of another person and requires that either direct contact to the person or contact to something that is closely associated with the person occur. For example, a woman walks down the street and as she crosses paths with a man walking in her direction, he grabs her purse and starts to run. It would appear obvious that the man intentionally reached his arm forward to yank the purse from the woman. The woman would undoubtedly find it offensive that a complete stranger is grabbing something that is hanging off her shoulder, which is a part of her body – and, because the purse is hanging off her shoulder, it is closely associated to her.

An assault, on the other hand, is an intentional and reasonable apprehension of an imminent battery. For example, if a man was sitting in the driver’s side of his car and saw a woman throw a softball directly at his windshield, this would be an assault. This is because the man sees the woman make the motion of throwing the softball at his car, the woman releasing the softball, and the softball then flying in his direction. Because the man is sitting right behind the wheel, he has a reasonable apprehension that the softball could shatter the windshield and either the shards of a windshield or the softball would hit him – this would be an imminent battery.

California Negligence Laws: Auto Accidents

Mon, 12 Nov 2018 21:28:09 +0000

Sadly, each year, millions of people are injured in motor vehicle accidents. As a result, victims will have to deal with their damages – which includes, but is not limited to: lost wages, vehicle repairs/replacement costs, lost future earning capacity, therapy (occupational or physical), pain and suffering, disfigurement, loss of consortium, and medical bills.
In California, when one driver negligently causes injury (or damage) to another driver, that driver is liable to the injured party for the damages caused. The injured party will need to show that the negligent party caused the injuries, harm or damages sustained. Moreover, the legal standard for negligence is as follows:

California Class Action Lawsuits

Mon, 12 Nov 2018 21:12:27 +0000

A class action lawsuit is a lawsuit in which one or more plaintiffs sue as a representative of a class of other people with a similarly situated cause of action or actions. To determine whether or not a person may sue as a representative of a class, we must look to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 382, which states:

“If the consent of any one who should have been joined as plaintiff cannot be obtained, he may be made a defendant, the reason thereof being stated in the complaint; and when the question is one of a common or general interest, of many persons, or when the parties are numerous, and it is impracticable to bring them all before the court, one or more may sue or defend for the benefit of all.”

Understanding Joint and Several Liability

Mon, 12 Nov 2018 13:58:01 +0000

Joint and several liability sounds like a mouthful, but the concept is easy to comprehend. Joint and several liability exists when there is a single plaintiff that has been harmed by multiple defendants. It becomes a little complex because it cannot be determined, how much, percentage-wise, each defendant is at fault. However, this does not become the plaintiff's problem – rather, the plaintiff may sue either one or both of the parties for the entire judgment – apportionment of fault becomes the defendants' problem.

Uber-like thinking, 1LAW into the on-demand legal market

Fri, 29 Apr 2016 23:47:24 +0000

Uber’s effect upon the ride-dispatching industry is not overstated labeling it massive. The company took a $9 billion industry and quadrupled it, reaching a domestic and international valuation of $62.5 billion in December 2015. The number for this tremendous growth comes from riders that otherwise would not use taxi services, but who do so now. Their idea of introducing non-consumers into the market presents exciting possibilities to apply elsewhere. 1LAW saw that 80% of legal needs are not met, and drawing from Uber’s responses to challenges, provides services for those currently unrepresented, or underrepresented in the legal sphere.

One challenge Uber saw is taxis are expensive. They are reasonable for traversing city blocks as long as you aren’t a Columbia University student in Harlem and interning on Wall Street in Lower Manhattan. That’s a slow ride, far distance, and with constant traffic that mounts fares quickly. They are even less reasonable in sprawling suburbs where commuting to work is necessary, and so is driving out for leisure and entertainment. Where would you hail a taxi, and at what cost for the ride? Furthermore, with a rider unfamiliar with an area, what maintains the driver’s integrity from taking advantage of the route to drive up fares? Taxis are expensive, lacking availability, and possessing an element of unknowingness.

Are you Eligible to be President of the USA?

Tue, 01 Mar 2016 06:28:07 +0000

The most sought after office in the world, that of the United States president, understandably comes with fierce competition. Advantages and weaknesses are assessed, reassessed, and exploited, ultimately seeking to extinguish competitors’ chances. One method that has been addressed in the 2016 presidential elections draws upon candidates’ eligibilities for who constitutionally qualifies as a “natural born citizen.”

In 1968, George Romney’s status as a “natural born citizen” was challenged, being born in Mexico. The issue was brought up again in 2008, with John McCain’s candidacy, born in Panama, throughout President Obama’s two terms, and recently looking at GOP candidates Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Bobby Jindal. The matter of who constitutes a “natural born citizen” should be straightforward, but oddly, it’s not. Here’s where the confusion lies:

What you Need to know about a PTSD Personal Injury Case

Wed, 27 Jan 2016 00:00:54 +0000

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has become a widely recognized malady. This can be partly attributed to veteran accounts from Iraq and Afghanistan come to light through the media, as well as local individuals informing about their symptoms. Combat experiences are a common cause of the disorder, but other activities can cause it as well, affecting many. Jaqueline Kennedy Onassis and Mick Jagger dealt with the disorder, as did Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr. Did you know that you might have a personal injury case if you suffer with PTSD?

California’s Crazy Laws

Fri, 15 Jan 2016 19:19:01 +0000

It’s a casual Friday. In San Clemente, CA, dreary skies sit on top of the landscape, leaving us sleepy as we go about our work, and anxious for the weekend to come. It’s perhaps a good day for a fun post to brighten up the day. What could be better than some crazy laws? Here are some good ones from several cities in California:

The north bordering city of San Clemente, Dana Point, has one such crazy law. There, you may not use the bathroom if the windows are down.

What you Need to Know About Trampolines

Thu, 07 Jan 2016 21:44:23 +0000

Trampoline parks are going up all around the country, and many homeowners add trampolines to their yards. Did you know that hospital visits from trampoline injuries have gone up 150% over the last two decades, and are the subject of many lawsuits each year? This is what you need to know.

Trampolines were designed for the training purposes of gymnasts and acrobats, and are used for military pilot training as well. In this capacity they are monitored and have strict guidelines making them a safe and effective aerobic activity. The same safety precautions many times are not taken, or followed as thoroughly for entertainment usages, resulting in injuries.

Lehi Car Accident Law Firm

Wed, 23 Dec 2015 15:09:45 +0000

Car accidents are a common occurrence. Many times accidents result in minor damage to the vehicles involved. Other car accidents are more serious, resulting in major property damage, critical injuries, and even death. It is important that you know what to do if you are a party to a car accident.

Stop at or as close to the scene of the accident as possible. Make sure you are in a safe location.
Remain calm. If you are injured, do not move. This could cause further injury. Do not admit fault to anyone.
Call the police. If you are involved in a car accident that results in personal injury or significant property damage, you are required to report the incident to the police and Department of Motor Vehicles.
Call someone you know and trust to the scene. Having someone there to document the scene is invaluable.
Get important information from other involved drivers. Write down or take pictures of driver’s licenses, license plate numbers, insurance information. Also get contact information from any witnesses.
Take pictures or video of the accident scene. Take photos of the scene including landmarks, skidmarks, property damage, and all vehicles involved.
Seek Medical Attention. You may not think that you are injured, however, injuries from car accidents can take days or weeks to develop physical symptoms. Failure to timely seek medical care can have a negative impact on any monetary recovery that you may seek.
Promptly report the car accident to all insurance companies. Do not discuss the details of the accident or injuries with insurance companies. They will likely try to use the statements against you.
Contact the Lehi car accident law firm attorneys at 1LAW. It is vital that you swiftly seek the advice and counsel of a knowledgeable and experienced car accident attorney who will help you handle the insurance company and other parties.

Safety Tips to Prevent Holiday Household Fires

Fri, 11 Dec 2015 01:34:05 +0000

The holidays are the most likely time of the year for household fires. Along with the excitement of colored Christmas trees, lit Menorahs, and lots of yummy food, electrical outlets get over-plugged, stoves are left unattended, and trees dry up. There are several things to do to reduce the risk, having a memorable but safe holiday season.

The number one cause of holiday fires is cooking, the USFA says. Exciting activities distract chefs and their helpers from stoves, and ingredients go up in flames. To reduce this risk, try the following:

Beating the Holiday Blues to Regain Joy

Thu, 03 Dec 2015 20:29:53 +0000

A common perception is the holidays are a time of joy shared by all. For many, the holidays are painful, bringing with them the blues. Thankfully, there are several things to do to regain this time of the year. Here are some ideas:

Take Care of Yourself

Releasing endorphins through exercise, a hormone that when activated eases pain and creates positive feelings, and eating healthily can help manage the season’s blue feelings. Go to the gym, for a run, do yoga, and try meditating. Carbohydrates and sugary foods can negatively affect moods when eaten or drunk in excess. Alcohol can as well, as it is a depressant.

Happy Thanksgiving from 1LAW

Thu, 26 Nov 2015 00:31:51 +0000

Despite the turmoil throughout the world, there’s still a whole lot to be thankful for. It’s a great time of the year to tell family and friends you’re thankful for them, and love them. If away, it’s an opportunity to send a note. If passed, to honor them. It’s a great time to start a new tradition, with your support at your side.

It’s a great time to make a list of the things that are going well. It’s also a time to remember the things that routinely bring a smile to your face. It’s a time to be grateful for the small things that tend to mean a lot, along with the bigger things that are sometimes taken for granted.

Rights and Responsibilities

Wed, 25 Nov 2015 21:14:34 +0000

Rights and Responsibilities

The right to privacy is recognized by the United States Constitution and the Supreme Court has produced several opinions on the issue.

Name change – neither spouse is obligated to change his or her name after the marriage is solemnized.
Spousal rape – Most rape statutes do not include a marital exception, in other words, it is possible for a husband to rape his wife and vice versa. Living apart when the crime occurs is a strong consideration in some jurisdictions.
Spousal abuse – Both parties to the marriage hold the right to be free from mental, physical, and emotional abuse (among other forms of abuse). Some form of protective order is available in all jurisdictions in order to provide shelter to the battered spouse.
Support – Both spouses hold the duty of mutual support. This means that each spouse holds the right to claim support from the other spouse. This right and duty applies to both spouses in regard to children that the couple produce/adopt as well.
Privacy – The right to privacy is recognized by the United States Constitution and the Supreme Court has produced several opinions on the issue. While this right is not unlimited (the government can regulate this right if it can show a compelling public interest), restrictions on the right to privacy are not taken lightly. A few rights that fall under the right to privacy in the realm of family law include:
1. Right of Marriage to a person of your choosing (with restrictions, such as prohibition of marriage for same sex couples)
2. Right to make your own procreation decisions
3. Use and sale of contraceptives
4. Abortion rights (with many restrictions)
5. Right to make educational decisions regarding children produced/adopted by the couple (such as taking children out of public school)
6. Rights to make decisions regarding care, custody, and control of children.

When To Talk and Who To Speak With

Wed, 25 Nov 2015 20:44:13 +0000

When To Talk and Who To Speak With

Ideally, one would only speak about the facts of his or her case with another person that a privilege of confidentiality applies to

Ideally, one would only speak about the facts of his or her case with another person that a privilege of confidentiality applies to; such as a spouse, an ecclesiastical leader, or an attorney. It is important to remember that any statements to anyone that a confidentiality privilege does not apply to can be used against them. If you only give information to your attorney, he or she can tell your story in a matter that it consistent with the theme of your defense.

Sentencing

Wed, 25 Nov 2015 20:30:13 +0000

Sentencing

As stated above, you must share all of the relevant facts with your attorney. Tell your attorney everything!

As stated above, you must share all of the relevant facts with your attorney. Tell your attorney everything! The severity of any sentence will vary with the circumstances and the following factors will come into play: prior convictions, being on probation or parole, culture of the jury, media attention, as well as mitigating and aggravating circumstances. There are several things that can help you in the sentencing process as well, such as: evidence of good character (letters of reference etc.), employment history, and community service. Another very important concept is your rights under the Fifth Amendment. There is absolutely nothing wrong with exercising your right to remain silent (if you or a loved one has been approached by law enforcement, call 1Law immediately). You have no obligation to consent to an interrogation outside of the presence of your 1Law attorney. Finally, do not conduct your own investigation. This is essential in order to avoid the appearance of distortion of evidence.

Tips for Safe Holiday Roads

Wed, 25 Nov 2015 00:00:26 +0000

Are you ready for the fun and festivities of the year’s end? Three of our favorite holidays close banks, empty schools, and leave work to be completed after the dwindling excitement. And while there are many joyful things happening, the festivities can be disrupted by drunk driving. Let’s make this year smarter and safer on the road.

Did you know that 40% of highway deaths occurring on Thanksgiving are alcohol-related? The average is slightly less for Christmas, but rises to 58% for New Years. Not only are there more accidents, but law enforcement anticipates an increase in drunk driving. They set up check points, and pull over suspicious vehicles seeking to keep us safe. As a result, DUI arrests in many states increase by as much as 40% in December.

Who’s Liable if a Self-Driving Car gets into an Accident?

Thu, 19 Nov 2015 05:22:48 +0000

When cars collide, the first question asked after confirming the health of passengers is, who is responsible? Self-driving cars test the limits of liability in the current legal framework, but even with manned vehicles, it’s important to eliminate uncertainties, and prove responsibility.

The question goes: Whose fault is it if a self-driving car gets into an accident? Is it the vehicle owner’s, or the automobile creator’s? As the owner does not make navigational decisions, do algorithm deficiencies and mechanical malfunctioning place the owner in a precarious position, or would the car’s manufacturer be liable for damages? Some Google employees say tickets should be given to their company rather than car owners, but another argument states responsibility should fall upon the car itself.

How Legal Knowledge Protected San Clemente’s History

Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:27:25 +0000

It’s obvious that monuments and buildings can be fundamental to a city’s heritage, but would you ever think sidewalks could receive historic protection? That’s the legal claim in San Clemente, California. Red tile sidewalks throughout the Spanish Village by the Sea, a vision commenced by Ole Hansen in 1925, are facing threats by the city and developers.

Despite massive development projects, the city of San Clemente continues to successfully preserve the Spanish Village theme giving the city the unique, small town character historically characterizing it. While simultaneously recognizing the value of this small town character, the city grapples with irreversible, nature changing growth. The pushing and tugging of interests from stakeholders embodies the development process as inevitably camps of pro and anti-growth emerge to voice interests. Details like sidewalk tiles are easy to overlook in these discussions, but city residents have found powerful allies to ensure even these small but important details are accounted for.

Harrowing Reminder to Do Our Part Keeping the Roads Safe

Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:24:41 +0000

Auto enthusiast or not, most Americans still rely heavily upon roadways to perform necessary day-to-day activities. We’re lucky to escape the occasional reminder of risks. When accidents do happen, it can potentially be lifesaving to learn from them by looking at bad habits that have crept into personal practices, and replace them with methods that keep us and others safe on the road. A particularly poignant example occurred along the I-5 in Glendale, California, this morning.

Necessity

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 05:55:49 +0000

Necessity

Call 1LAW and speak with one of our experienced injury attorneys in order to ensure that you get the settlement that you are entitled to.

Certain circumstances can give rise to activity that might technically be considered tortuous. For example, going onto the property of another would technically be considered trespass, however, if the purpose is to cut down your neighbor’s trees in order to stop the spread of a wildfire, that purpose would be a defense to trespass. Actions necessary to save the life of another, such as pushing a child out of the way of a moving train, that may technically be battery, fall under the defense of necessity.o Be careful dealing with your Insurance Company- Many insurance companies are in the business for one reason: money. If you are injured in a car accident, insurance companies will apply their many methods to avoid either paying you a fair settlement or even anything at all. Rest assured, even though you have worked hard to pay your premiums, insurance companies will try as hard as they can to not pay you what you are entitled to.In order to ensure that you are dealt with fairly, having an experienced injury attorney on your side is essential. Call 1LAW and speak with one of our experienced injury attorneys in order to ensure that you get the settlement that you are entitled to.

Defense of Property

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 05:50:39 +0000

Defense of Property

However, defense of property does not allow one to set up traps on one’s property in order to cause harm to trespassers. There are limits on this defense.

Reasonable force may be used in defense of property. Deadly force may be justified in certain circumstances, such as when a homeowner is present in his or her abode during the commission of a burglary and there is fear for one’s life.However, defense of property does not allow one to set up traps on one’s property in order to cause harm to trespassers. Hence, there are limits on this defense as well.

Self Defense

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 05:49:07 +0000

Self Defense

Self defense or defense of others can also be a defense. However, only force that is reasonably necessary may be used.

Self defense or defense of others can also be a defense. For example, one does not have sit allow another to attack him or her with a baseball bat. However, only force that is reasonably necessary may be used (one cannot shoot another person in retaliation for punching him or her in the face).

Defense To Intentional Torts

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 05:47:36 +0000

Defense To Intentional Torts

Consent cannot be obtained through unscrupulous methods, such as fraud. Consent also has boundaries. Call us at 800-678-1529 for a free consultaiton

Consent cannot be obtained through unscrupulous methods, such as fraud. Consent also has boundaries. For example, while football is a rough sport and players are consenting to accept and deal with injuries that may happen, that does not mean that they consent to another player bringing a knife into the field of play and cause damages above and beyond those that occur normally.

Duty To Safe Environment

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 04:54:38 +0000

Duty To Safe Environment

This principal applies to other forms of harm, such as battery, that can occur as a result of the property owner’s lack of precaution.

Part of making property livable is providing a safe environment. For example, a property owner has a duty to keep property that he or she is renting to tenants reasonably safe from criminal elements. There is a significant amount of case law that holds property owners liable for criminal actions on tenants. This duty also applies to business owners.While a property owner is generally not required to hire his or her own private police force (although this is not unheard of in dangerous areas), he or she is required to keep visitors reasonably safe from crime (such as providing security cameras and calling the police when there are suspicious characters loitering around). For example, a property owner has a duty to remove suspicious looking characters from the property (such as a person in a hotel that does not appear to be a guest) in order to prevent possible harm to visitors. In at least one case, a property owner was found liable for damages involving a rape (the property owner did not provide adequate security in order to prevent the attack). This principal applies to other forms of harm, such as battery, that can occur as a result of the property owner’s lack of precaution.

Warranty of Liability

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 04:45:01 +0000

Warranty of Liability

The Warranty of Habitability applies under both common law and state statutory law. Any landlord has a duty to make any quarters that he or she is renting, commercial or residential, livable.

The Warranty of Habitability applies under both common law and state statutory law. What it means, in a nutshell, is that any landlord has a duty to make any quarters that he or she is renting, commercial or residential, livable. To make a property livable means to provide things such as working locks, windows that close, hot water, working electricity, in essence, to make the premises in clean working order. This also means that the landlord must paint regularly and make sure there is no mold on the walls. This list is not exhaustive, but provides a very short and general outline to a landlord’s duty to keep any premises that he or she rents livable.

Quiet Enjoyment

Quiet Enjoyment

This is possibly the most well known aspect of landlord/tenant law. Any kind of lease or rental agreement comes with a warranty of quiet enjoyment

This is possibly the most well known aspect of landlord/tenant law. Any kind of lease or rental agreement comes with a warranty of quiet enjoyment, whether it is written or not. What this means is that the landlord will allow the tenant to take possession of the premises and that he or she will not interfere with private possessions of the tenant or the tenant’s use of the property.

Property Liability

Why Good Worker’s Compensation Attorneys Get Results

Tue, 29 Sep 2015 14:18:47 +0000

We often come across clients in our practice who wait way too long to call us. They have been injured at work and don’t know either what they want to do or didn’t know they had a right to do something. It is a victim’s responsibility to reach out, and then a good worker’s compensation lawyer will take it from there.

So what differentiates a good personal injury lawyer from the best? The best understand the complexities that can arise and how to navigate through them. Direct experience is what gets you there, not calculated hypotheses.

Former Professional Tennis Player James Blake Gets Tackled By Police

Fri, 25 Sep 2015 23:43:35 +0000

The last thing former professional tennis player James Blake thought when a man ran at him in front of his hotel was that he was going to be tackled to the ground. However, that’s what did happen, as Blake waited for a car to take him to the U.S. Open for a corporate appearance in front of the Grand Hyatt hotel. The officer ran up to Blake, threw him to the ground, cuffed him and took him away. He confused Blake with someone else they were looking for.

Man on Bicycle Gets Clipped Running Red Light in St. George

Wed, 16 Sep 2015 23:43:36 +0000

Unfortunately another accident occurred in St. George, this one caused by a cyclist running a red light on 400 East and getting hit by a car. According to the St George News, the cyclist was cited for failure to stop at a red light. Not only that, but he was transported to Dixie Regional Medical Center in St. George to attend to his injuries.

This story provides us with a good example of what to do when you’re in an accident. It’s important to notify the paramedics first when indicated, but it’s also important to get the police there as soon as possible to sort things out. Depending on your position, you’ll possibly need to rely on witnesses, medical documentation and evidence to strengthen your case even though it may be perfectly strong on its own. The more information defending your case, the more protected you will be.

Two Almost Identical Car Accidents Happen in Same Washington City Intersection

Mon, 31 Aug 2015 23:43:40 +0000

According to the St George News, two almost identical car accidents happened in the same busy Washington City intersection on the same day. Both crashes at Green Springs Drive and Telegraph Street involved pileups in the intersection that were caused by drivers running through red lights. All occupants were wearing seat belts and a couple drivers were transported to Dixie Regional Medical Center in St. George.

There is a lot to learn from this story besides just the same thing happening twice in the same day. Car accidents are dangerous and people often behave negligently on the road like these two drivers who ran red lights. It’s important to pay attention to the road and keep your eye out for reckless driving. Of course there are things out of your control.

Utah’s Program to License Undocumented-Immigrant Drivers Model for Other States

Mon, 24 Aug 2015 23:43:39 +0000

In 2005, Utah was the first state to permit “driving privilege cards” for undocumented immigrants. The law was created for the safety of motorists, since the government claims that many immigrants will drive regardless of licensing. It is a different color than a regular drivers license and must be renewed every year as opposed to once every five years for a normal one. The legislation ensures that undocumented immigrants learn about driving laws, driver safety and obtain insurance.

Accident on I-15 Caused by Two Reckless Drivers According to St. George News

Fri, 21 Aug 2015 23:48:00 +0000

According to the St. George News, two reckless drivers caused two separate accidents in Washington City, Utah on I-15. One of the drivers cut the other off while they were speeding down the highway, forcing one of the cars to fly off the road into the median guardrail. The driver in the accident was treated for broken bones while the other driver sped away. In response to the accident, another car slowed down and was then rear-ended by a semitruck at a slow enough speed that the car driver fortunately only got whiplash.

Restaurant Food Safety Hazard Claims

Tue, 18 Aug 2015 04:30:25 +0000

Most people at least know someone who has gotten food poisoning from a restaurant. Restaurants are supposed to adhere to strict health codes and any variance from that standard could cause food-borne illness in customers. Often restaurants do not have proper storage and/or refrigeration, and push older food to customers to get rid of their back stock.

A business is a business, and for restaurants, every penny counts. However, when it’s at the expense of its diners, there’s a serious safety issue at hand. Illness can also occur if dishes are not properly washed, kitchens and cooking supplies are not properly cleaned and the staff does not practice proper hygiene.

What We Can Learn About Truck Accidents from the Tracy Morgan Story

The accident occurred on the New Jersey Turnpike in 2014, killing his friend and comedian James McNair as well as breaking some of Morgan’s bones and causing him a serious brain injury. McNair’s family settled for $10 million and Morgan settled for an undisclosed amount.

Fourth Wrong Way Accident In Utah This Year

Tue, 11 Aug 2015 04:39:41 +0000

When you hear about wrong way accidents, they usually don’t involve much good news. Recently in Ogden, the fourth wrong way crash of the year on record in Utah involved drugs, alcohol and fatality. Sadly, this is a common tale when it comes to these kinds of catastrophic accidents.

Drugs and alcohol are the most common causes of wrong-way accidents. Driver impairment including exhaustion and poor visibility are also common reasons why people end up driving on the wrong side of the road. Often there are issues with improper road signage, and with the increase in cell phone use, people pay more attention to their tasks for the rest of the day instead of the task at hand.

3 Important Immigration Law Tips

Fri, 31 Jul 2015 04:39:37 +0000

The nuances of immigration law are often the difference between obtaining citizenship or getting denied. It’s important to know and understand the laws that govern your immigration status so that your expectations are clear. Below are 3 important immigration law tips to think about in your quest for citizenship:

Think about establishing citizenship as soon as possible. If you have a green card and plan on staying in the United States, then you should apply for citizenship as soon as possible, which is usually five years after your green card is granted. Citizenship offers you more protection than having a green card when it comes to deportation risk.
Be on time for all official immigration appointments. If you are late to any scheduled appointments pertaining to your immigration status, you may delay your application process and in a worst-case scenario get deported. Pay attention and don’t be late.
Always make copies of all forms and stay on top of your application status. We know these things take time, and your focus is important to make sure things go smoothly. The USCIS is known to lose documents here and there, so making copies and sending documents via certified mail is a must. Your immigration status is ultimately your responsibility, and you need to always know your rights.

1LAW is an affordable, transparent law firm in a time when it’s difficult to differentiate between different firms’ abilities, strengths and weaknesses. We are committed as the voice of our clients when faced with difficult life situations, and provide a tailored fit approach to each individual or entity. The need for a lawyer is often disconcerting, but 1LAW strives to efficiently and affordably provide the best legal support possible.

Motorcycle Accidents And Negligence

Wed, 29 Jul 2015 04:39:36 +0000

It’s a fact that motorcycles are not as safe as cars. In a car, you are enclosed with safety measures built into the automobile. A motorcycle is the opposite, making accidents more catastrophic.

If you ride a motorcycle and have been in an accident, you need to know your rights to protect yourself. Motorists often act negligently, causing accidents that could have been avoided. This doesn’t free you to ride like a maniac, because any negligent behaviors or harmful actions on your part will either limit your right to a settlement or make you liable for an accident.

Utah Dog Bite Claim Information

Mon, 20 Jul 2015 04:39:34 +0000

If a dog has ever bitten you, then you know what a traumatic experience it can actually be. Often, mental anguish, fear and PTSD are just as bad if not worse than the actual injury sustained. Below are some dog bite personal injury claim basics in Utah:

The statute of limitations on filing a dog bite personal injury claim is 4 years. That means that if you do not file your case within 4 years, it will most likely be thrown out.
In Utah, strict liability law governs dog bites. That means that if any dog does anything to you, you have a right to go after the owner for not taking proper care of their animal. People are responsible for their dog’s actions, plain and simple.
There are some exceptions to the rule. A provoked dog, a police dog used for apprehension or a dog bite or injury received by an intruder are all possible defenses against negligence.

Your best move is to call the best personal injury lawyers in Utah that specializes in dog bites so that you know your rights and protect yourself. We are happy to show you the way to receive the compensation that you deserve.

Federal and state employment laws are set up to protect workers. When it comes to your protection, it’s important to know Utah employment laws because occasionally there are differences between the two. Know your rights because unfortunately negligence is common in the workplace.

Safety on the job laws in Utah are stronger than federally mandated. Companies have to follow Utah’s on-the-job safety program and do not have the right to fire, demote or cut the hours of employees for reporting safety issues.

3 Common Causes of Workplace Injuries

Thu, 02 Jul 2015 04:39:32 +0000

Another common personal injury case that we deal with is workplace injuries. Unfortunately, many people get injured on the job for many different reasons where their employer is negligent and liable for their employee’s damages. Below are 3 of the common workplace injuries that we see come through our 1LAW offices.

Fatigue due to overexertion. When people are overworked and overloaded with work, they break down over time. This causes sloppy mistakes and in the worst-case scenario, catastrophic injuries. When you’re working with heavy machinery and driving large vehicles, inattention due to overexertion could be life threatening.
Getting hit by equipment. This is another common workplace injury. Sometimes things are not secured properly, furniture falls over or things just move and fall. If you’ve been hit by something on the job, you should speak to a lawyer immediately.
Repetitive motion. Ranging from someone who works in a machine shop to someone who sits in a cubicle and types all day, they all require the same repetitive motions day in and day out. Unfortunately these motions cause wear and tear on your body. Carpal tunnel syndrome is an example of a repetitive motion injury.

Regardless of if you’ve been in a workplace injury or are just doing your research, a personal injury expert is your best bet to get your questions answered and your issues supported.

3 Divorce Tips To Pay Attention To

Tue, 30 Jun 2015 04:39:31 +0000

Divorce is a situation that often starts and ends in strife, pain, anger and confrontation. In a perfect world, an amicable divorce would be easy for the sake of each other and children, but that is often not the case. If you are entering or are in a divorce, here are three tips that will directly affect your settlement.

Understand the decisions you make. Regardless if you have a team of attorneys or just one, ask questions so that you understand what you are getting yourself into. It is you who will have to deal with the consequences of your decisions, so it’s in your best interest to understand exactly what’s going on.
Getting bad legal advice. Everyone and their mother has “good” advice when it comes to divorce. The more unprofessional people that you consult, the more convoluted your thinking will become. Stick with an experienced family law lawyer and don’t take advice from those who don’t know.
Hiring the right lawyer. There are many lawyers out there and it’s important that the lawyer who you work with is a good fit for you. A consultation is a good way to understand you and your lawyer’s goals and see if there is good rapport.

Child Custody And Child Support In Utah

Fri, 26 Jun 2015 04:39:30 +0000

Utah has a unique set of rules when it comes to family law, and in dealing with a divorce, it’s best to know exactly what you’re getting yourself into. Two of the most difficult issues in divorce are child custody and child support decisions.

Child custody is decided when divorcing parents have children who are minors (under the age of 18). In Utah only one thing matters in the court’s decision, and that is what is in the best interest of the child. The court takes many things into account including the parent’s individual relationships with their children, the age of the parents, the mental condition of the parents and children, the home in which they will provide and the wishes of the children if he/she is old enough to make such a decision.

Asbestos Exposure Litigation Primer

Mon, 22 Jun 2015 04:39:29 +0000

A few decades ago, it was discovered that asbestos exposure has the ability to cause people to get sick and in the worst cases to die. This is a very serious issue that continues to plague people today. Construction companies began using asbestos for building because of its durability and fire resistance, but then it was realized that all of these construction workers were exposed to a toxic substance. Many places still contain asbestos.

Who Is Liable In a Slip and Fall Accident?

Mon, 15 Jun 2015 04:39:24 +0000

Slip and fall accidents are a common sub-category of personal injury law and claims. Whether you slipped in an icy supermarket parking lot, or fell because of a broken staircase in the building where you live, some cases lead to liability and others do not.

So what cases commonly lead to liability? We’ll use slipping on a wet spot in the supermarket for this slip and fall example. If a property or business’ owner or employee caused the spill, knew it was slippery and did nothing about it and/or if the situation would have been taken care of by a competent owner/employee, then you have a case.

5 Personal Injury Legal Terms to Know

Wed, 10 Jun 2015 04:39:23 +0000

We’ve spoken at length in previous articles about legal terms and terms that a personal injury lawyer would use in the court of law. Below are five common personal injury legal terms that you should know if you ever find yourself in this unfortunate situation.

Damages: any harm or injuries, mental or physical, caused by an accident. There are 2 types of damages: economic and non-economic. An example of an economic damage is lost wages due to missing work. An example of a non-economic damage is mental anguish caused by an accident.
Negligence: a standard of care that people are held to by law and society. When this standard is compromised, and an injury takes place, this is negligence. A good example is in a car accident, when the other driver and/or you behaves negligently.
Personal Injury: this is as simple as it sounds, but the one thing to remember is that it’s an injury that is to a person’s mind or body, not property.
Tort: when negligent or inappropriate behavior leads to damages to a person.
Deposition: an interview under oath, outside of the courtroom and transcribed by a court reporter.

Knowledge is power. When it comes to your best interest, the help of personal injury lawyer will get you the settlement that you deserve.

Negligence. If you are injured by a negligent act by a co-worker, you are entitled to a settlement. Other’s inexperience or lack of focus on the job is not an excuse for your loss of wellbeing.

Personal Injury Advice: 3 Tips If You’re Injured In A Car Accident

Thu, 13 Nov 2014 05:54:32 +0000

If you have been injured in a car accident, you have the right to file a personal injury claim or lawsuit depending on the situation. Below are 3 tips to follow if you’ve been injured in a car accident to help you maximize damages from your claim.

Make sure a police report is filed. This ensures that key information is on the record and available as evidence when it comes time to process your claim or go to court. Not having a police report might be the difference between you getting rightful compensation rather than no compensation at all.
Take care of your injuries right away by seeking medical attention. If you are injured, either go to the hospital or see a doctor right away. First and foremost, you need to take care of your body. However, on a legal level, if you handle claims without proper medical documentation, you will probably set yourself up for a smaller claim.
Avoid taking the blame for an accident. What you do and say at the scene of an accident will directly impact your claim. Less is more and let the law decide who’s at fault, rather than your emotional interpretation. This will help your case in the long run.

If you have been in an accident, first of all we hope that you are doing okay. We have seen many clients who have suffered due to the negligence of others. You have a right to proper compensation for your damages. If you have any questions, you can always contact us for a free consultation.

Lawler Hendricks II Still The Most Anticipated Fight

Tue, 14 Oct 2014 05:46:21 +0000

When Robbie Lawler defeated Matt Brown with that beautiful 1LAW hat on his head, everyone was thinking the same thing: Bring on Hendricks vs. Lawler II. In their first fight, Johny Hendricks squeaked out a unanimous decision to win the fight and the vacant welterweight title.

On Saturday, December 6, live from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Robbie will look to make sure the second fight doesn’t go to a decision. UFC 181 is the most anticipated fight remaining in 2014. With the show that Robbie and Johny put on the first time around, this one will definitely be a candidate for fight of the year.

3 Things To Know About Immigration Law

Fri, 10 Oct 2014 05:46:43 +0000

When it comes to the law in the United States, immigration law is considered by most to be the most confusing and difficult to interpret. A cheap and fast immigration expert is not common because immigration law is such a specialized field of information. Below are 3 basics things to know about immigration law.

You need a green card to make permanent residence in the US. People with green cards do not have many restrictions when compared to US citizens. The main differences are that they cannot vote and they can be deported for breaking US laws.
You need a nonimmigrant visa to come to the US for a specific, limited time. People who are visiting or have a skill that the US is in need of can get this type of visa, in addition to students and business people.
Short-term visitors from specific countries do not need visas to visit the US for up to 90 days. The list of countries can be found here. In this case, you need to present your passport and your ticket home to the customs or border officer.

If you are having issues with immigration or any legal aspect pertaining to it, please feel free to contact 1LAW to get easy answers to your questions.

1LAW Sponsored Rory MacDonald Ready For His Title Shot

Tue, 07 Oct 2014 06:31:27 +0000

UFC Fight Night 54 continued 1LAW’s tradition of sponsoring big winners when Rory MacDonald defeated Tarec Saffiedine with a decisive third round knockout. Will the UFC pay off this popular star with a title shot at the winner of Welterweight champion Johny Hendricks versus Robbie Lawler in their upcoming rematch? We believe he’s ready to fight anyone in the Welterweight division.

Rory has fought and trained in Georges St-Pierre’s shadow for many years, being the second man in the their famous Canadian camp. In the past, they even refused to fight each other, proving that loyalty is more important than personal gain. But now that Georges is retired and Rory is back where he belongs, it’s time for that elusive title shot.

Thu, 02 Oct 2014 06:31:26 +0000

Here is installment number 3 of our basic legal terminology tutorial. Check these out and keep your eyes open for more in the future.

UFC 178 One For The Ages

Tue, 30 Sep 2014 06:31:25 +0000

UFC 178 was worth every penny spent at the gate and on PPV this past Saturday at the MGM Grand Gardens Arena in Las Vegas. As a sponsor of UFC fighters, the 1LAW family loves an epic event.

Like was widely predicted, the main event was the least interesting of the top fights on the card due to Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson’s dominance as usual. He took care of Chris Cariaso via second round submission to cement his title as the most defended fighting champion in the UFC. Nobody in the Flyweight division can touch him.

UFC 178 Is One Event Not To Miss This Saturday

Sat, 27 Sep 2014 06:31:24 +0000

Affidavit – A statement that has either been printed or written that is made under oath.

UFC Fight Night 52 Takes On Japan With A Bang

Thu, 25 Sep 2014 06:31:23 +0000

As a UFC fighter partner, when UFC spreads its wings to other countries and continents, 1LAW spreads its wings. The best lawyer in Richfield, Utah may not pertain to a Japanese crowd, but the 1LAW name is spreading across the United States rapidly.

UFC Fight Night 52 took place last Saturday night in Tokyo, Japan, and demonstrated the UFC’s international popularity. With a fight card featuring many Japanese stars facing off against their non-Japanese counterparts, the crowd and those who tuned in on UFC Fight Pass definitely got their monies worth.

1LAW Sponsored Andrei Arlovski With Big Win This Weekend

Tue, 23 Sep 2014 05:46:33 +0000

1LAW sponsored Andrei Arlovski showed us this past weekend that his tank is definitely not running out of gas. Arlovski knocked out Antonio “Big Foot” Silva in the first round, shocking the pro-Brazilian crowd in Brasilia this past Saturday at UFC Fight Night 51.

There were many doubters before this fight, and Andrei made them eat their words. Not many expected him to get past “Big Foot” and especially not with a first round knockout. Let this be a lesson to those who ever doubted him.

UFC Fight Night 50 Recap – Beware Of Jacare

Tue, 09 Sep 2014 05:46:34 +0000

Last Friday, UFC Fight Night 50 took place, live from Mashantucket, CT at the beautiful Foxwoods Resort and Casino. The MMA fight fan public got a free treat, with a card filled with solid fights. Joe Lauzon, the almost local favorite fighting out of Massachusetts, took care of Michael Chiesa with ease. This was an emotional win for Lauzon, with most of his recent time and energy spent helping his young son fight cancer. His son is cancer free, and Joe is back to doing what he does best in the Octagon. This hits home with the 1LAW family, who is lending support to one of their client’s whose son is fighting his own battle. Click here to support Help fund Kyles brain surgery expenses by Jen Stephens Matt Mitrione took care of Derrick Lewis, with a fast first round knockout. Look for him to move up in the heavyweight division with back-to-back wins. One of the biggest surprises was when underdog Ben Rothwell took care of Alistair Overeem in no time. The fight was stopped about halfway through the first round, with Overeem on the mat and Rothwell with his arms raised. And then came the main event. We told you this was a deep card. Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza showed why he might be the most feared man in the middleweight division. He choked out Gegard Mousasi in the third round, and made it clear that he’s earned his title shot. Chris Weidman beware. 1LAW is an affordable, transparent law firm in a difficult space when it comes to differentiating between different firms’ abilities, strengths and weaknesses. They are committed as the voice of their clients, when faced with difficult life situations, and provide cheap litigation process advice. The need for a lawyer is often disconcerting, but 1LAW strives to efficiently and affordably provide the best legal support possible.

Weeding Through Legal Terminology

Fri, 05 Sep 2014 05:46:42 +0000

We understand that very often, legal jargon can be confusing. People understand many law concepts, but the phrases and words used don’t readily make sense. We want to provide some definitions of terms and concepts in an ongoing effort to provide knowledge for people seeking legal advice.

Litigation process – Litigation process basically refers to bringing a lawsuit upon a person or entity. We realize that’s a big way of saying a simple thing, but again this is very common with legal terms.

Fri, 05 Sep 2014 05:46:20 +0000

1LAW is proud to announce that their sponsored fighter Derek Brunson won this past Saturday at UFC 177, live from Sacramento, CA. While not looking as sharp as he’s capable of, he found a way to win the decision and move himself up the rankings ladder. Look for Derek to re-focus himself in his pursuit of the top of the middleweight division.

Brunson looked great with the 1LAW logo on his shorts, especially with his past degree in criminal justice. Derek is a family man, and is as committed to fighting as he is to spending time with his children. His experience with the litigation process and the need for quality law support, as well as his family values, made Derek the perfect partner for the 1LAW brand.

Wed, 27 Aug 2014 05:46:40 +0000

In the upset of the night, 1LAW sponsored Rafael Dos Anjos made quick work out of #1 lightweight contender Benson Henderson with a first round knockout at UFC Fight Night 49 this past Saturday in Tulsa, OK. Henderson was a heavy favorite, so when Dos Anjos buckled Henderson’s knees about halfway through the first round with a left handed punch, the UFC lightweight division took notice.

“Not only was it a spectacular knockout of a perennial favorite, but just a little sweeter for us to see that 1LAW hat on Rafael’s head in victory,” said 1LAW founding partner A. Jason Velez. “Just like our divorce lawyers and law support, give us a chance and we’ll bring you a victory. Rafael did himself, Brazil and the 1LAW family proud.”

Let the Games Begin! Jones and Cormier Brawl at Press Conference

Mon, 18 Aug 2014 05:46:36 +0000

Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier might need some law support after they brawled during an August 4press conference at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to promote their September 27 light heavyweight title fight at UFC 178. Cormier stepped in for the injured Alexander Gustafsson, and there’s obviously no love lost between him and Jones. “If this were a marriage, someone call a divorce lawyer,” commented A. Jason Velez, founding partner of 1LAW. “All joking aside, here at 1LAW, as supporters of the UFC, we are excited for this incredible title fight.”

When you run your business like a family, nothing makes you prouder than when a member of your team excels and succeeds. And that’s how we feel here at 1LAW, to see Robbie Lawler get better with age, and earn his shot at the welterweight title once again. Not only did our 1LAW hat look great on him, but even more importantly, the smile on Robbie’s face was as another company would say, priceless.

Tips for people going through a divorce

Tue, 08 Jul 2014 06:37:39 +0000

If you are preparing for a divorce, here are a few useful tips from 1LAW to consider when talking to attorney and asking for divorce help:

Find an experienced attorney. With the ever increasing rate of divorces in America, it is important to understand the legal implications of a divorce and why finding the best divorce attorney around is paramount. Whether your issues surrounding the divorce range from splitting earnings, splitting property, child custody or some combination thereof, it is important to find someone well-versed in family law and who truly understands your position. While an experienced attorney may cost more money, the implications of alimony and child support could end up costing more money in the future. Look for a divorce lawyer with at least 5 years experience and litigation experience is also valuable. Although roughly 90% of divorces end in out of court settlements, it is important to find someone who will be able to fight for you in court in the event a settlement can not be reached.

Organize your current finances. The crux of all divorce settlements and cases has to do with the divide of assets and debt. The best divorce advice is to be proactive in organizing all financial documents such as income statements, tax reports, credit card statements, savings account receipts, stocks, retirement and life insurance policies, etc. Although most people in the midst of a divorce are focused on splitting up what they currently possess, it is also important to focus on what debts are being divided as well.

Worker’s Compensation

Thu, 03 Jul 2014 06:37:38 +0000

A new phenomenon is on the rise in relation to workers compensation claims and cases — repetitive strain injury or disorder (commonly known as RSD). RSDs account for approximately 60% of all job-related injuries according to recent data. Even more stunning is that approximately 1 in 8 American workers has been diagnosed with some injury related to repetitive strain disorder.

RSD knows no limits when it comes to occupation. The most commonly affected workers who would likely suffer from this type of occupational injury are those who spend most of their days behind a computer or in a fixed position either sitting or standing (ie assembly line workers, telephone receptionists, painters). The physical stress on the human body created by certain professions does not excuse employers from their responsibilities to create safe working conditions and ensure the health and safety of their employees. An example of a solution would be the purchase of headsets for telephone operators so the repetitive motion of placing the phone on the shoulder and securing it with the head is eliminated and possible injury to the neck and shoulder are avoided.

If you have suffered an injury at work or believe you are suffering from repetitive strain injuries related to your employment, make sure to seek legal advice from 1LAW to ensure your rights are protected after consulting with your physician.

1LAW – A different kind of law firm

Wed, 02 Jul 2014 06:37:36 +0000

The dedication to lifestyle sports goes well beyond the practices and workouts, but directly affects the diet, dress code and philosophy on life for such athletes. By tapping into lifestyle sports, 1LAW is able to better serve their clients by truly understanding them and their interests, hence the motto “ 1LAW Personal Injury lawyers serving your lifestyle.” If you are looking for a firm that will fight for your rights and ride with you until the end, look no further as 1LAW is the right law firm for you.

300 pound sign falls injuring a whole family leaving a 10 year old dead at Alabama airport.

Fri, 29 Mar 2013 07:36:50 +0000

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – A sign at the Birmingham airport fell on a family Friday, killing a 10-year-old boy and injuring other family members. Deputy Coroner Derrick Perryman said 10-year-old Luke Bresette was pronounced dead at Children’s of Alabama.

The state of California is warning its drivers about “drugged driving” after a statewide survey found that 1 in 7 drivers in the state of California are driving with some sort of controlled substance in their system, more than twice as many as the number of people who are driving with alcohol in their system. The survey results, announced Monday by The California Office of Traffic Safety, found that 14% of drivers surveyed tested positive for driving under the influence of impairing drugs — both illegal and prescription — while 7.3% of drivers tested positive for driving with alcohol in their system. The impaired driving survey included more than 1,300 drivers who voluntarily provided saliva and or breath samples at roadside locations in cities through California between 10:00pm and 3:00 am Friday and Saturday night (16/17).

Mon, 18 Mar 2013 06:37:19 +0000

Two people, including pro football player Donte Stallworth, were hospitalized Saturday after the hot air balloon they were riding in crashed into power lines in Miami, police said. The third passenger in the balloon who was the ballons operator was not injured.

Study shows fewer American teens are getting driver’s licenses

Thu, 14 Mar 2013 06:37:18 +0000

Derrek Lee Hager had just dropped off his girlfriend in the Texas Panhandle and was headed with four other friends to a nearby town to continue enjoying their spring break. But the teens never made it, dying in a fiery wreck near Dumas after the driver ran a stop sign and collided with a tanker loaded with fuel. The deaths of the five Texas teens came the same day as an accident in Ohio that killed six and a day before a crash in Illinois killed four. Three teenagers died Friday in Indiana when police said the drivers of two pickups ran a four-way stop and collided. The deadly accidents serve as horrific reminders of the perils of teen driving but contrast statistics indicating that fatal crashes among teen drivers have declined during the past decade, according to a report released last month by the Governors Highway Safety Association, which represents state highway safety offices. The report also indicates that deaths of younger teen drivers sharply increased during the first six months of last year, reversing a 10-year trend. There were 435 16-year-old drivers killed in 2000, according to the report, but by 2011 that had dropped to 173. During the same time period, deaths among 17-year-old drivers dropped from 564 to 250. But deaths of 16- and 17-year-old drivers in traffic accidents during the first six months of 2012 rose a combined 19 percent during the same period of the previous year, from 202 to 240 deaths. The report, which does not include passenger deaths, is based on preliminary state data that sometime changes. Despite the recent increase, overall teen driving deaths are significantly lower than they were a decade ago, when teen drivers traveled with fewer state-imposed restrictions, including limits on driving with teen passengers and driving at night. Deaths of young passengers when the driver was between the ages of 15 and 20 have dropped significantly since 1982, when 1,898 riders within the same age range died, according to the report. In 2011, the year for which most recent data are available, the number of deaths of passengers between 15 and 20 years old dropped to 777, the report showed.

College Football star learns he has heart condition, may put NFL aspirations on hold.

Fri, 22 Feb 2013 06:37:13 +0000

University of Utah defensive tackle Star Lotulelei made the wrong type of news at the NFL Scouting Combine this past Sunday, when an echocardiogram detected a heart condition for a player many expected to go in the top 10 in the 2013 NFL Draft. On Monday, who said he felt fine and has no idea if the issue is new or was preexisting. Lotulelei flew back to Utah on Monday to seek a second opinion. He was confident he would be able to work out without restrictions at his pro day March 20. Lotulelei is free to continue exercising and working out, a source briefed on the player’s condition. The doctors at the combine never told Lotulelei he couldn’t exercise, but rather they chose to err on the side of caution and keep him from performing in Indianapolis. Star Lotulelei wasn’t barred from exercising, but he was told it would be better if he saw a specialist first. On Monday The USA Today reported that the hope is Lotulelei’s heart irregularity was the product of dehydration, high sodium intake or rapid weight loss. Lotulelei shed nearly 10 pounds in three days leading up to the combine. Lotulelei will likely find out for sure in Utah if his first-round stock could be hanging in the balance.

X Games snowmobiler Caleb Moore is battling for his life after accident

Fri, 22 Feb 2013 06:37:12 +0000

Caleb Moore, who crashed in the finals of snowmobile freestyle at X Games Aspen last Thursday night, is in critical condition at St. Mary’s Hospital in Grand Junction, Colorado. “Caleb is not doing good at all,” Caleb’s grandfather Charles Moore told The Denver Post on Monday afternoon. “The prognosis is not good at all. It’s almost certain he’s not going to make it.” Sadly, if true, it would mark the first fatality in the 19-year history of the X Games, winter and summer. The X Games have been a great attraction of “Extreme Sports” for many young boys and girls. Near the end of his first snowmobile freestyle run, Moore failed to fly far enough on a backflip and the front sleds dug into the landing ramp, sending him over the handlebars and into a face-first landing, after which the snowmobile landed on him. Moore, 25, of Krum, Texas, was knocked unconscious. Paramedics attended to him immediately. After regaining consciousness, he began feeling worse and was taken to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with a concussion, according to a New York Times report. During the night, doctors discovered internal bleeding around Moore’s heart. He was airlifted to Grand Junction to undergo emergency surgery Friday morning. Monday night, family spokeswoman Chelsea Lawson told the media that “Caleb is in critical condition and is being closely monitored. The Moore’s want to express their gratitude to all of Caleb’s fans, friends, and family for their strong support and ask for continued prayers in the coming days.” On Thursday night, about 30 minutes after Moore crashed, his brother, Colten, 23, also crashed and was taken to the hospital where it was determined he had separated his pelvis. X Games reported that the injury didn’t require surgery. Colten wrote on his Facebook page Saturday morning that he was out of the hospital and “doing good but still sore.” He asked for prayers for his brother.

Four Utah Highway Patrol officers were hit by cars as went to the aid of motorist during the freezing rain

Wed, 30 Jan 2013 06:37:11 +0000

Utah Highway Patrol officers who were hit by vehicles Thursday during a blitzkrieg of freezing rain and major freeway pileups say they are lucky and grateful to escape with their lives. Troopers Kristopher Cope, David Brooke and Sterling Clark were each hit along I-15 and trooper Joshua Porter was hit near 1900 West in Farr West during some of Utah’s worst road conditions in memory. Each officer was hit while attending to accidents that had been caused by slick conditions. None experienced life-threatening injuries, but each spent the rest of the day recovering and urging motorists to slow down and give them more room at crash scenes. Cope was thrown 15 feet after responding to a crash on southbound I-15 near 1300 South. He had just exited his car to assist the driver who had hit him from behind when another car slammed into the pileup. Brooks, a 16-year UHP veteran, has been hit while on the job four times prior to Thursday, when he was hit in his car near the southbound 5300 South exit. He said he feels lucky to have avoided serious injury on each occasion. Brooks said he wishes drivers would recognize the risks of not adjusting their speed to the weather. Trooper Steven Winward said commuter’s drive recklessly close to shouldered vehicles on a daily basis along the main corridor of I-15. “Not only do drivers put our lives at risk but they put their lives at risk,” Winward said. “It’s better to go slow and make it there safely rather than not make it there at all.” Drivers who fail to shift lanes to move farther from trooper vehicles are subject to a misdemeanor fine under Utah’s “Move Over” law.” Salt Lake and Utah counties reported 179 total freeway accidents last Thursday due to the severe weather conditions.

A day of ice climbing leaves two climbers in hospital after accident.

Thu, 24 Jan 2013 08:32:55 +0000

PROVO CANYON — After an ice climbing accident, a woman was left badly injured and a man climbing with her also sustained injury. The woman, along with a male friend, were climbing in the popular area known as the “Stairway to Heaven” about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday when she fell about 40 feet. Provo Fire Battalion Chief Tom Augustus noted that other climbers had mentioned to officials, “The ice has dried out a little and is brittle right now.” The man she was climbing with, who is in his 30s, was hit by falling ice debris and suffered minor injuries, but was able to scale down the frozen waterfall. The Provo Mountain Rescue team was training Wednesday morning, so the team was able to arrive quickly. When they arrived, the woman was 350 to 400 feet up the slope. They used a rigging system to move her about 50 feet to a more level area to give her medical assistance. “The biggest challenge that we have right now is we don’t want to get anyone else hurt,” said Provo Fire Department Bt. Chief Tom Augustus. Once down the mountain face, AirMed transported the woman in stable condition to University Hospital. The man was transported to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center for his injuries. Authorities say Bridal Veil Falls is one of the premier ice climbing venues in the country, but it’s inherently risky. “Ice climbing in and of itself is one of the things that your mom and dad probably wouldn’t want you to do,” Augustus said. “…It’s fun, it’s exhilarating, but it’s very dangerous.”

A boulder the size of a small car crashes through a house nearly kills a women sleeping inside the home.

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 06:37:09 +0000

SALT LAKE CITY – A Utah woman is critically injured but thankful to be alive after a boulder the size of a small car came loose from a cliff above her families house, crashing through her bedroom wall, and hitting her while she slept. Wanda Denhalter has to eat out of a straw because her broken jaw is wired shut, and it’s painful to laugh, cough, blow her nose or sit up because of a broken sternum, said her husband, Scot Denhalter. The 63-year-old woman also has three layers of stitches on a gash that stretches from her knee to her ankle, he said. But considering how close she came to being crushed to death, she’s feeling blessed, he said. “She’s definitely lucky, no doubt about it,” Scot Denhalter said. “She’s very grateful.” Wanda Denhalter was sleeping alone Saturday at 3 a.m. when a 12-by-9-foot boulder came barreling through the wall of her St. George home, after breaking off from a cliff above the house, Scot Denhalter said. He was sleeping at his son’s house to make room for visitors that never arrived. Though Wanda Denhalter survived, the boulder did plenty of damage to the Dixie State College teacher. She was in surgery for four hours at the St. George hospital, as doctors stitched up a gash that went to the bone. She yelled for help, but nobody came because she was the only one in the three-house cul-de-sac. She fumbled through the house until she found the phone, and dialed 911. There were bloody footprints inside and on the driveway and a 3-foot pool of blood where she sat waiting for the ambulance, Scot Denhalter said.

What are the key differences Between the DREAM Act and Deferred Action?

Sat, 17 Nov 2012 09:06:48 +0000

The core difference between The DREAM Act and Deferred Action is that Deferred Action does not allow lawful status and the Dream Act would.

Deferred Action is ONLY a momentary reprieve from deportation, which would last two years, with an option for renewal.

Like The Dream Act, recipients of Deferred Action are allowed to get an employment authorization during those two years, and allowed to apply for a driver’s licenses. The Dream Act on the other hand, would provide potential Dreamers with a green card, which would after a period of time, assist them toward U.S. citizenship through naturalization.

Fri, 16 Nov 2012 09:27:59 +0000

We have all been there before when wondering why College is so expensive? If you haven’t been there, you probably have a friend or know someone who has. It appears like the state of Florida will be helping out its own college students who are citizens of the United State but who have undocumented parents, by reducing their tuition fees coming up in the spring of 2013. Many of these students who happen to be residents of the state of Florida were paying Out Of State Tuition fees, which in some cases were about three times more, then students with documented parents. Many of these students who hail from the state of Florida were paying these high tuition fee because their parents were unable to show documentation, thus making them undocumented people living in the United States.
