With Summer on the Horizon Personal Injuries are Rising

As travelers take to the highways and byways, it is important to practice awareness so they do not become victims of accidents or incidents that leave them injured.

With summer quickly approaching, law experts warn travelers to stay aware of their surroundings so their excitement for their travel plans does not lead them to overlook dangers that could cause serious injuries. As summer comes into play, individuals are traveling in areas they are often not familiar with, which can increase the occurrence of injury.

Each summer, the incidence of personal injury scenarios seem to rise. Experts agree this increase occurs for the simple facts there are more people traveling and the vast majority of those people have their minds on fun and not on the road. Chris Cockayne from Cockayne Law advises travelers to take extra time while traveling and to pay careful attention to their surroundings so they can avoid placing themselves in danger.

Mr. Cockayne recently spoke on the dangers summer brings. "Each year, we see an increase in personal injury claims during the summer and early fall months. From car accidents to slip and falls, it seems injuries occur more often when we are busy trying to have fun. While not every danger can be avoided, keeping your mind on your driving and your surroundings can make a big difference."

While minor car accidents are nothing to stress over, serious accidents and injuries can result from summertime fun. When a person is injured because of the neglect or even direct actions of another person, Chris Cockayne advises them to seek the help of a Personal Injury Attorney. An attorney offers insight and guidance and assists victims in seeking compensation for their injuries that led to measurable damages.

Personal Injury Law focuses on protecting injured victim's rights as they seek fair compensation for the injuries they suffered. Attorney Chris Cockayne cautions his clients to not be afraid of hiring an attorney to help them. "Many people have the wrong notion that hiring an attorney means they are forced to go to court. In fact, we do everything we can to help our clients avoid court, even though that is not always possible. The vast majority of personal injury claims are handled outside of the confines of court.

To those who plan on traveling this summer, it is wise to take extra precaution, even more than they would while driving around their own area. Checking and double checking before turning into intersections and watching speed can make a big difference and help prevent a person from becoming a summer statistic.
