Vehicle and Auto Accidents in Nevada

July 6th, 2010 No comments

Many motor vehicle accidents are caused by drivers not paying attention. One of the leading types of car crashes are T-Bone accidents or side impact accidents from incautious drivers running red lights. With the current volume of cell phone drivers and text messaging teenagers on the road, failure to yield traffic citations are at an all time high. Often times injuries resulting from a t-bone accidents are severe such as: brain trauma, spinal cord injuries, broken ribs, fractured arms, broken legs, and fractured hips to name a few.

Put your Dog on a Leash in Nevada

July 5th, 2010 No comments

Walking your dog without a leash, even in a park, is negligent. While dog bites often occur due to the owner not properly maintaining their dogs (i.e. Not closing a gate or restraining the animal upon opening a door) more than half of reported animal attacks can be avoided if animal owners would simply place their dog on a leash. The common statement by dog owners, “my dog doesn’t bite” is disturbing. Dogs are animals and have instincts that most owners are not aware. They may become protective or aggressive without notice. Every dog has teeth and every dog is capable of attacking without provocation. Children are often victims of dog bites while out playing in the neighborhood. Aggressive dogs are attracted to bicycles, skateboards and loud children playing.

Personal injuries suffered from dog bite cases often result in stitches, scarring, muscle damage, neurological damage and extreme distress for fear of animals.  If you or a loved one has been attacked and bitten by a dog, contact Benson & Bingham at 702-382-9797.
