Feel the Summer Burn.

Did you know that over a million Americans a year suffer some sort of burn injury?  Summertime is a particularly susceptible time for painful and often disfiguring burns.  Commonly, a burn injury of severity may be caused by an auto accident.  Carelessness around boiling water is another.  There are also electrical and industrial accidents.

Burn injuries have three classifications –

1.  In a first degree burn only the outer layer of your skin is affected.

2.  In the second degree type blisters containing fluid and much more pain are involved.

3.  Third degree burns are the ones we hear most about.  They may require hospitalization and a long period of rehabilitation.

In the case of third degree burns someone may need to be compensated for loss of income and huge medical bills.  To try a personal injury case involving negligence causing severe burns you need a specialist.  In the Great Southwest that firm is Ken Wagner Law.  They are Albuquerque’s burn injury attorney law firm.  Call them right away at (505) 242-6300.   

Defective Products are Everywhere.

A defective product could include, but is certainly not limited to  -

1.  The tires on your vehicle

2.  The very vehicle that you are driving

3.  Toys that your kids play with

4.  Medications that you and your family take every day…and on and on it goes.

I Hear the Train a Comin’

With fond memories of Johnny Cash, we wanted you to remember that in a confrontation between a train and whatever you are driving…you lose!  There are about ten thousand train accidents per year in the United States.  Train usage actually continues to grow in the Great Southwest.

There are four main causes of train accidents –

1. A mistake by a human

2. The structure and maintenance of the tracks themselves

3. The very equipment that is on the train

4. The proper or improper functioning of the signals

Train accidents are fairly rare, thank heaven, but when they occur they are usually catastrophic.  If you need aggressive defense against a major hauler with deep pockets you need to hire Ken Wagner and his firm.  With a half-century of experience, The Great Southwest’s train accident attorney wants to hear about your case.  Call the Albuquerque office today at (505) 242-6300.
