			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MICHIGAN – On May 8, 2012, a Michigan jury awarded $4 million in damages to a woman who suffered multiple injuries in a school bus accident. Joyce Simmons suffered knee and wrist injuries when a school bus she was riding in crashed. According to the lawsuit, Safeway Transportation not only failed to properly train and supervise their bus drivers (including the one responsible for causing the crash), they put profits over the safety of passengers and other motorists.</p>
<p>When riding as a passenger in a bus, you trust that the company or entity responsible for operating the bus has provided adequate driver training and supervision. When a tragic accident occurs as a result of the company’s failure to provide driver training or supervision, you may seek compensation for accident-related damages. Because many buses are managed by several companies or even government agencies, you may have a claim against multiple parties.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Angry, helpless, alone, and confused are just a few of the words victims often use to describe how they feel after suffering a serious injury in a San Diego motorcycle accident. As seasoned advocates of those injured through no fault of their own, the <a title="San Diego Motorcycle Accident Attorneys" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/motorcycle-accident.html">San Diego motorcycle accident attorneys</a> at Estey Bomberger know the pain and grief that is associated with a serious injury, and can offer victims help during a difficult time.</p>
<p><strong>Filing a Personal Injury Claim</strong></p>
<p>If you suffered a serious head injury, back injury, bone fracture injury, neck injury, leg injury, joint injury, burn injury, road rash injury, spinal cord injury or any other type of injury in a motorcycle accident, you may be able to collect monetary compensation from the person or party responsible for the accident. To collect compensation, you must first file a personal injury claim. Victims are allowed two years from the date of the injury to file a claim. It is important to note, if a claim is not filed within the time permitted by the state, victims will be denied a claim filing.</p>
<p><strong>Establishing Fault</strong></p>
<p>Once a claim has been filed, victims are not automatically given a monetary award. In order to obtain compensation, a victim must prove his or her injuries were caused by another person’s negligent or careless actions. How does a victim prove negligence? Without the representation of a skilled San Diego motorcycle accident attorney at the law firm of Estey Bomberger, it can be difficult to prove negligence. With our proven trial experience, legal expertise, use of expert investigators, and financial resources, victims can rest assured we will build a powerful case proving the defendant’s negligent actions were responsible for harming another individual.</p>
<p><strong>Call Estey Bomberger Anytime – Day or Night</strong></p>
<p>For more information about our law firm and how we can put our years of legal experience to work for you, please call our firm now. We have recovered millions for clients injured in motorcycle accidents throughout the state of California. There is no fee to call and you can call at anytime – day or night.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite the dangers associated with the “off-label” use of the Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft, thousands of patients have been treated with the bone graft for purposes other than approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) . In July 2008, the FDA announced it had received at least 38 reports of complaints with the use of the bone graft in the cervical (neck) spine. According to the FDA, the close proximity of airway structures to the cervical spine contributed to many of the serious side effects experienced by patients. Patients reported difficulty swallowing, trouble breathing, difficulty talking, compressed airway, and nerve damage to the structures of the neck. Some patients also reported swelling of the neck, throat, chest, and shoulders.</p>
<p>Other types of serious conditions linked to the off-label use of the Infuse Bone Graft, include cancer, inflammatory cyst formation, unwanted and uncontrolled bone growth, male sterility, and death.</p>
<p><strong>Maximum Compensation for Serious Injuries</strong></p>
<p>Medtronic admittedly misled the medical community and the public of the safety of the bone graft, and even promoted the medical device for purposes other than approved by the FDA. If you or a loved one suffered a serious adverse health condition as a result of having an Infuse Bone Graft cervical spine procedure, please contact a <a title="Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Lawyers" href="http://www.medtronicbonegraftlawsuits.com/">Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft lawsuit lawyer </a>at Estey Bomberger.  You may be entitled to financial compensation for your injuries and we will work tirelessly to get you the highest amount of compensation possible.</p>
<p><strong>Types of Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Lawsuit Damages</strong></p>
<p>The different types of damages a Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft victim may be entitled to, include past, current, and future medical bills, lost earnings, impaired earning capacity, loss of relations (if applicable), diminished quality of life, and pain and suffering.</p>
<p>Individuals who have lost a loved as a result of the off-label use of a bone graft may be entitled to compensation for funeral and burial expenses, deceased’s anticipated earnings, and loss of love, support, companionship, and guidance.</p>
<p><strong>No Fee Promise</strong></p>
<p>At Estey Bomberger, our <a title="Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Injury Attorneys" href="http://www.medtronicbonegraftlawsuits.com/medtronic-infuse-bone-graft-side-effects-lawsuits">Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft injury lawyers</a> offer a no fee promise, meaning you pay us nothing unless we recover compensation on your behalf.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BOSTON, MA. – Bayer, the maker of birth control pills Yaz and Yasmin, will pay $110 million to settle approximately 500 defective drug lawsuits over claims that the birth control pills caused potentially fatal side effects. According to the lawsuits, drospirenone-containing Yaz and Yasmin could cause blood clots, which could lead to heart attacks, strokes, and ultimately, death. The announcement of the settlements came days after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified consumers that the packaging on both birth control pills was being changed to include the increased risk of  blood clots with use. The label change was prompted by the findings of an FDA advisory, which voted 21-5 that the labeling on Bayer’s birth control pills inadequately warned consumers of the higher risk of blood clot development.</p>
<p>Pharmaceutical companies are required to warn consumers of the risks associated with the use of a product. Failure to warn may make a drug company liable for any damages associated with a serious dangerous product related injury or illness. Birth control pills are just one of the many types of drugs that have been linked to serious adverse side effects. Accutane, Actos, Depo-Provera, Nuva-Ring, Hydroxycut, Paxil, Zoloft, and Ritalin are just a few of the many dangerous drugs consumers have been harmed by.</p>
<p>If you or a loved one suffered a serious injury as a result of taking a defective or dangerous drug, please contact a <a title="San Diego Product Liability Lawyer" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/product-liability.html">San Diego product liability lawyer </a>at Estey Bomberger as soon as possible. We only handle cases involving serious injury or death, and only accept a few cases at a time. Limiting the amount of cases we handle allows us to focus on the smallest, but important, details of a case. Our attention to detail has enabled us to secure large settlements and verdicts for our clients’ injury-related damages. Consultations are free and if hired to represent you, one of our <a title="San Diego Personal Injury Attorneys" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/">San Diego personal injury attorneys</a> will work on a contingency fee basis (no fees until your case is won).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After suffering a serious head injury, back injury, spinal cord injury, amputation (loss of limb) injury, bone fracture injury or any other type of serious injury in a San Diego sport utility vehicle (SUV) rollover accident you may have a lot of unanswered questions. Why did the accident occur? Who is responsible for the accident occurring? Can I get help for injury costs?</p>
<p>For answers to your pressing questions, look to a knowledgeable <a title="San Diego SUV Rollover Accident Attorneys" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/suv-rollover.php">San Diego SUV rollover accident attorney</a> at the law firm of Estey Bomberger. We have exclusively practiced personal injury law for several decades in San Diego and throughout the state. We limit the amount of cases we take to ensure that every client is given the personal attention they deserve.</p>
<p><strong>Why do SUV Rollover Accidents Occur?</strong></p>
<p>SUV rollover accidents can be caused by a number of factors, but in many cases, it is the design of the vehicle itself that ultimately causes it to rollover. A narrow wheelbase and higher center of gravity make SUVs less stable and more prone to overturning when involved in an accident. Single-vehicle SUV rollover accidents are also very common. Coming into contact with a soft shoulder or a sudden steering correction can also cause a SUV to rollover.</p>
<p><strong>Who is Responsible for a San Diego SUV Rollover Accident?</strong></p>
<p>If an SUV rollover injury or death was caused by a defective design, victims may be entitled to compensation from the manufacturer of the vehicle. If an SUV rollover injury or death was caused by the negligent actions of someone else, victims may be entitled to compensation from the at-fault driver. At Estey Bomberger, our San Diego SUV rollover accident lawyers will quickly identify the party (or parties) responsible for an accident and go after them to ensure they are held accountable for negligent actions.</p>
<p>SUV rollover accident victims may be able to obtain financial compensation for medical care costs, lost earnings, diminished quality of life, disability, care giving services, loss of household services, and pain and suffering.</p>
<p><strong>Schedule a Free Case Review</strong></p>
<p>If you were injured in a SUV rollover accident involving a Ford Explorer, Toyota 4Runner, Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, Nissan Pathfinder, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango or any other type of SUV, please schedule a free case review by calling our office today. Our <a title="San Diego Personal Injury Lawyers" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/">San Diego personal injury attorneys</a> are here to help you.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>HOUSTON – On Monday March 26, 2012, Melvin Wiggins, filed a lawsuit against Bally Total Fitness, Houston Health Clubs, and the Brunswick Corp., claiming he was injured while lifting weights at a Bally Total Fitness gym in Webster, TX. According to the lawsuit, Wiggins was lifting 45-pound dumbbells when the weight bench he was using collapsed, causing him to hit the floor. The lawsuit claims that the weight bench fell apart because the screws used to hold it together were missing. Wiggins suffered serious injuries in the September 2010 accident and is seeking an unspecified amount of damages in the lawsuit.</p>
<p>Accidents involving gym equipment fall under an area of law known as premises liability. In a premises liability claim, injured victims may seek monetary compensation for injury-related expenses from the property owner or tenant. The various types of damages victims may seek compensation for, include hospitalizations, doctor visits, therapy, lost earnings, disability, and pain and suffering.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hundreds of motorcycle accidents occur every year in the city of San Diego. These accidents result in rider injuries and tragically, rider fatalities. According to the California Highway Patrol, 291 riders were injured and nine were tragically killed in San Diego motorcycle accidents in 2009.  Some of the more recent motorcycle accidents that have occurred in San Diego are:</p>
<ul>
<li>March 16, 2012: A motorcyclist sustained severe head and broken bone injuries in an accident involving a sedan that occurred on Mead Avenue in Normal Heights.</li>
<li>March 10, 2012: A rider sustained fatal injuries in a motorcycle accident that occurred on State Route 163 near the Clairemont Mesa Boulevard off ramp.</li>
<li>March 5, 2012: A motorcyclist was tragically killed in an accident involving a car on Highland Valley Road.</li>
<li>February 23, 2012: A motorcyclist was tragically killed in a single-vehicle accident that took place on Black Mountain Road in Mira Mesa.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>San Diego Motorcycle Accident Injuries</strong></p>
<p>Motorcyclists are more likely to sustain a serious injury in an accident than car occupants because of the lack of protection offered by a motorcycle. Head injuries and chest injuries are the most common types of injuries sustained by riders, reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The term “head injuries” is used to describe any injury to the scalp, skull or brain. Aneurysms, hematomas, edemas, and contusions are all types of head injuries. Injury to the chest wall, heart, airways or any other structure within the torso is commonly referred to as a chest injury. Rib fractures, myocardial contusion, aortic dissection, and pulmonary laceration are all types of chest injuries.</p>
<p><strong>Filing a Personal Injury or Wrongful Death Claim</strong></p>
<p>If you or a loved one were seriously injured in a San Diego motorcycle accident, you may be bale to file a personal injury claim to recover financial compensation. In a personal injury claim, compensation may be recovered for injury-related damages, such as lost earnings, lost benefits, medical care expenses, and pain and suffering.</p>
<p>Family members who have tragically lost a loved one in a San Diego motorcycle accident caused by the negligent or careless actions of another person may be able to file a wrongful death claim. Filing a wrongful death claim allows surviving family members to pursue compensation for the expenses associated with a tragic loss, including funeral and burial costs, and final medical bills. Family members may also be entitled to compensation for deceased’s loss of future earnings, loss of companionship, and loss of love.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 2009, 18 people were tragically killed and more than 493 people were injured in San Diego pedestrian accidents, reports the California Highway Patrol. Pedestrian accidents can occur almost anywhere, but frequently take place at intersections. Although intersections represent a small percentage of California road mileage, intersections are one of the deadliest locations for pedestrians. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), of the 4,808 pedestrians tragically killed in 2002, 22 percent were killed at intersections. Forty-four percent of pedestrians were injured at intersections in the same year, reports the DOT. Some other notable pedestrian accident statistics from the DOT, include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Every 16 minutes in the United States, a pedestrian is killed or injured at an intersection.</li>
<li>Thirteen percent of pedestrian accident fatalities at intersections occur between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.</li>
<li>In 2002, 36 percent of pedestrian accident fatalities among individuals 65 and older occurred at intersections.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Preventing a San Diego Pedestrian Intersection Accident</strong></p>
<p>Although pedestrians cannot control the actions of motor vehicle drivers, pedestrians can employ the following safety tips to ensure they are not harmed while walking or jogging.</p>
<ul>
<li>Always use a crosswalk to cross a street. Don’t jaywalk – drivers are not expecting you to cross the street at an unmarked area of road.</li>
<li>Make eye contact with drivers before crossing a street.</li>
<li>Don’t assume drivers see you. Before entering a crosswalk, pause to make sure drivers are stopping.</li>
<li>Don’t wear headphones while walking. Headphones may prevent you from hearing an ambulance or other warning sounds, such as a train horn.</li>
<li>Wear bright clothing, especially when walking at night. Visibility is key to alerting a driver of your presence.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>San Diego Pedestrian Accident Injuries</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 2009, almost a 1,000 people were injured in San Diego bicycle accidents, reports the California Highway Patrol. Cyclists have nothing to protect them from an impact with a car and are therefore, much more likely to sustain serious injuries than the occupants of a vehicle. Some examples of serious bicycle accident injuries are: brain injuries, ruptured organs, paralysis, back injuries, neck injuries, road rash, amputation injuries, contusions, spinal cord injuries, bone fracture injuries, concussion, head injuries, and muscle/ligament injuries.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, many bicycle accident victims do not realize that funds for injury expenses may be obtained in a personal injury lawsuit. If a cyclist’s actions did not contribute to an accident occurring, the injured cyclist may be entitled to financial compensation from the person responsible for the collision. In a bicycle accident claim, injured victims may be awarded compensation for:</p>
<ul>
<li>Past, current, and future medical bills</li>
<li>Past, current, and future lost wages</li>
<li>Vocational rehabilitation</li>
<li>Diminished quality of life</li>
<li>Loss of household services</li>
<li>Emotional anguish</li>
<li>Physical pain.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Filing a Personal Injury Claim</strong></p>
<p>A personal injury claim must be filed within the state’s statute of limitations, which is usually two years from the date the injury occurred or from when the injury was “discovered.” Claims that are filed after the statute of limitations has expired will be denied, so if you are considering taking legal action, act now. Once a claim has been filed, a victim must bear the burden of proof. In a personal injury claim, victims must prove that the defendant acted negligently, recklessly or carelessly, and because of the defendant’s negligent actions, the victim was harmed.</p>
<p><strong>You Only Have One Opportunity to Obtain Maximum Compensation</strong></p>
<p>Without the help of an experienced personal injury attorney, litigating a San Diego bicycle accident claim can be very challenging. Victims are only given one opportunity to file a claim, and once a settlement has been accepted, a victim cannot seek additional compensation in the future. To ensure their one opportunity to get full and fair compensation is maximized, victims should hire a skilled <a title="San Diego Bicycle Accident Attorneys" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/bike-accident.html">San Diego bicycle accident attorney</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Client Satisfaction</strong></p>
<p>When looking for a <a title="San Diego Personal Injury Attorneys" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/">San Diego personal injury lawyer</a>, look for a lawyer with vast resources, a caring and professional staff, years of experience, and proven case results. You also want to select a lawyer with satisfied clients. The lawyer you choose should give each and every client the personal attention they deserve.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NEW JERSEY – A woman who allegedly had a stroke after using the NuvaRing contraceptive filed a lawsuit against four defendants: Merck &amp; Co., Organon Pharmaceuticals, Akzo Nobel NV, and Schering-Plough Corporation. In the lawsuit, which was filed on February 3, 2012, Aimee L. Flynn claims that the stroke she suffered in February 2010 was caused by the use of a NuvaRing contraceptive. Reportedly, Flynn used the internal birth control device for less than two years before suffering a stroke. Flynn is accusing the defendants of breech of warranty, fraud, and negligence, and is seeking an unspecified amount of compensation for damages related to her injury.</p>
<p>Flynn is not the first woman to file a lawsuit claiming NuvaRing caused adverse side effects. Within the last few years, several women across the nation have taken legal action for injuries related to the use of a NuvaRing. A study conducted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last year found the NuvaRing contraceptive increased the risk of blood clots by a staggering 56 percent when compared to the birth control pill. The FDAs study also found that women who used the NuvaRing were at an increased risk for heart attacks.</p>
<p>If you or a loved one suffered a serious injury as a result of using a birth control device, you would be well advised to seek the counsel of a <a title="San Diego Product Liability Lawyer" href="http://www.personal-injury-attorney-in-san-diego.com/product-liability.html">San Diego product liability lawyer</a> at the law firm of Estey Bomberger.
