Dangerous Motorcyclists on Summer Roads.

Quickly…what do you think is the leading cause of accidental death in this country to people between ages 6 and 35?  It is motorcycle accidents!  Over 3000 people a year are killed in motorcycle mishaps and countless thousands have their lives turned upside down because of them.  Statistically speaking, the driver of a “safer” mode of transportation is usually responsible for a motorcycle accident.

If a car and a motorcycle get into an accident who do you think is the likely victim?  Motorcycle riders are more than 15 times more likely to die if a death occurs in this collision.  It is no surprise that head injury is the major cause of death in a motorcycle crash.  When a motorcycle is involved insurance issues become much more complicated.

In New Mexico and the Great Southwest you need a law firm to successfully pursue a fair and full settlement.  If you or a loved one has been involved in a motorcycle mishap immediately contact New Mexico motorcycle accident attorney Kenneth Wagner.  He will put his decades of experience to work for you to secure the maximum amount you deserve.  Call him today at (505) 242-6300.

Defective Products Come in all Types.

Were you aware that in February Johnson and Johnson was found guilty in a 72 million dollar lawsuit for failing to warn its users about the potential risk of cancer caused by its powders?  Yes, we are talking about baby and bath powders!  For 30 years there has been a study linking the possibility of ovarian cancer in women who use talcum powder on sanitary napkins.

In this particular 75 million dollar case, the jurors awarded the money to the St. Louis family of a woman who died of ovarian cancer.  The American Cancer Society has issued a statement saying that those who are concerned about the use of talc may use a cornstarch-based powder instead.  This case simply illustrates that seemingly innocent products can sometimes be harmful.

No one wants to come looking for trouble, but if it arrives on your doorstep you need to act quickly.  In New Mexico and the Great Southwest you have one of the best defective product attorneys in all of the land at your disposal.  Attorney Kenneth Wagner successfully won the famous McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case.  Call him today at his Albuquerque office at (505) 242-6300 if you feel that you might have a defective product issue.

The Dangers of Summer Driving.

According to the insurance institute for highway safety, summertime has a higher instance of vehicle accidents of any other time of year.  You would think that in the dead of winter in the Great Southwest driving would be MORE hazardous.  Think again, summertime is auto accident time for various reasons.  Here are some of them.

1.  More teens are on the road.  When school is out the teens hit the road.

2.  Vacationers add to traffic congestion on the highways.

3.  Hot weather causes more tires to blow out.

4.  Summertime is road construction time adding to drivers’ angst.

5.  More bicycles and motorcycles are on the road.

The Horrible Consequences of Burn Injuries.

Did you know that every year more than one million people are burned by accident in the United States?  And here are a couple of statistics that may surprise you.  Burn injuries rank in the top five of leading causes of accidental death according to the CDC.  Also, about half of all US burn victims are under the age of four years!

If you have never been a victim thank heaven, but there are so many ways that your life can change.

1.  The results of a serious car accident

2.  Accidents at industrial sites

3.  Mishaps with electricity

4.  Dangerously hot products and drinks

5.  And a particularly dangerous one for small children - scalding hot water

If you ever need representation in the Great Southwest wouldn’t it be comforting to retain the attorney who won arguably the most important burn case in American history?  That would be New Mexico burn defense attorney Ken Wagner.  He successfully argued in favor of the victim in the McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case!  Call the office of Kenneth Wagner immediately at (505) 242-6300.
