When a new power tool breaks and sends a metal fragment into someone’s hand, or a space heater catches fire, the damaged product can help explain what went wrong. In the rush to get treatment or clean up, however, it is easy to throw the item away or return it to the seller. Those decisions…
One of the first questions people understandably ask after a serious injury is: What is my case worth? There is no reliable formula. A serious personal injury claim is not simply the total of the medical bills multiplied by some arbitrary number. Two people can suffer similar injuries and have very different claims because an…
