Car and Truck Accidents
Each year, Pulaski County leads all other counties in Arkansas in terms of auto accidents. According to the Arkansas State Police, there were 60,947 motor vehicle crashes in Arkansas in 2014, with 13,245 occurring in Pulaski County. Most wrecks happen with little to no advance notice, so it is easy to be caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. After any accident, you should call the police to the scene. That way, an official record will be established, which will be helpful in proving your case to the insurance company or a jury. The Maumelle Police Department is located at 2002 Murphy Drive, and they can be dispatched by calling 911 or 501-851-1337.
Damages available in a motor vehicle accident case can include medical bills (hospital and doctor visits, surgery, physical therapy, etc.), lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life. However, to recoup your losses, you must show the other driver breached a legal duty owed to you to drive safely, also known as negligence. Examples include speeding, texting while driving, running a red light, and driving while intoxicated. A personal injury attorney in the Maumelle area who handles car accident cases can help you meet your legal burden under Arkansas law.
Premises Liability
Those who own or manage a property have specific duties to individuals who lawfully enter and use their property. If one fails to comply with these duties, certain injuries or damages may occur from a slip and fall, which could result in the victim pursuing the owner under a legal theory known as premises liability. Usually, the property owner is the one responsible for injuries or damages caused by the failure to remove dangerous conditions from property. However, it is not always that plain and simple, as determining which party is at fault can be quite complicated.
Let the attorneys at NST work for you. Whether your situation involves an injury suffered on commercial or residential property or hazardous indoor or outdoor conditions, we will fight for your rights. Common injuries in premises liability cases include broken or fractured bones, and in more serious cases, brain injuries or even wrongful death. Fortunately, Arkansas law provides an injured individual the opportunity to recover monetary compensation for items such as medical bills, loss of income, and emotional suffering caused by the property owner’s negligence.
Product Liability
Every year, people suffer injuries as a result of products that do not work as intended. Defective products are a part of life, and they come in a variety of forms. Such products range from defectively designed gas tanks, poorly designed consumer goods, and a defective airbag. It may be necessary to retain expert witnesses in order to pursue your case, making it important to speak with a lawyer early in the process. Our attorneys have can help Maumelle residents pursue a product liability claim by consulting with expert witnesses when appropriate.
There are a number of different theories of liability in product liability cases. A case may be based on negligence or strict liability, and may include alleged design defects, manufacturing defects, or failure to properly warn or instruct the plaintiff. Defendants have a number of defenses they may raise in a product liability action. One common defense is that the plaintiff fully understood the specific dangers involved with using the allegedly defective product. The defendant may also argue that there is no legal duty to warn the plaintiff about dangers which are obvious to the user. We understand the arguments a large manufacturer might make and can help devise an effective legal strategy to combat them.
