The Danger of Relying on AI for Legal Advice After an Accident or Injury

Published on: July 26, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

There have been many news stories about artificial intelligence (AI) and the many ways we can use AI assistants and chatbots to make our lives easier. While this technology is helpful, there is one thing you don’t want to use AI for: legal advice. Turning to a chatbot rather than a personal injury attorney if you’re injured can negatively impact your claim and could even keep you from getting the fair compensation you deserve.

At Flaxman Law Group, our family-based legal team understands that after a serious injury or accident, you may be worried about additional costs. That’s why we offer a free initial consultation with an accident attorney if you’re injured. We make it free and convenient to consult with an attorney, so you can easily get reliable information about your options for a legal claim.

What is an LCL Injury?

Published on: June 21, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

A Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) injury is sometimes called an LCL tear or a torn LCL. Your LCL runs on the outside of your knees, and it’s a group of tissues that keeps your knee stable in movement by keeping the bones together.

Personal Injury: Can I Sue Polluters?

Published on: May 31, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), each year about 6.7 million people around the world suffer from premature deaths due to pollution. You may have noticed pollutants in your area, but can you sue? Can you seek compensation if you’ve suffered an illness caused by pollution?

In Florida, this is a complex situation, and two recent bills in Florida (SB 1252/HB 347 and HB 789/SB 738) would make it harder to sue polluters in the future for personal injury and economic damages. If you’ve been diagnosed with an illness or have suffered property damage because of pollution, contact Flaxman Law Group to find out whether you may have a claim.

Head Injuries Have Long-Term Impact

Published on: May 10, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

Head injuries can have a long-term impact on a person’s memories, cognitive function, and personality. In some cases, people who have sustained a traumatic head injury need to re-learn speech or need to learn to adjust to life with short-term memory loss. New research about Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, though, suggests that the effects of head injuries may be even more wide-spread than previously thought.

When you sustain a head injury, it can affect many areas of your life, including your ability to return to your job, earn an income, and care for yourself. Getting fair compensation, if you qualify, is crucial to getting the medical help, wage loss support, and personal support you need to lead a quality life. To find out whether you may qualify for compensation, contact Flaxman Law Group today to speak with a head injury claims lawyer in our South Florida or Colorado offices about your potential claim.
