When a Massachusetts Attorney Represents Both Passenger and Driver

I found this article over at personalinjuryplace.com and I thought it would be helpful to anyone in Massachusetts, or beyond, who has been injured due to the negligence of medical personnel. Here it is: Thousands die or are hurt by medical negligence every year. The numbers can be scary, with some studies pointing out tens […]

Here is a sobering, and frankly, scary piece provided by cnn.com about adults driving while texting. (CNN) — Adults are just as likely as teenagers to text while driving, according to a report released Friday by the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project.
