Rent Abatement during the Coronavirus Pandemic
Of the many fears associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic, one of the biggest is the economic disruption associated with the Pandemic. The fear of losing your job or having your hours reduced to the point of not making enough money to pay your mortgage, rent, bills and feed your kids.

School bus crash McDowell County, North Carolina. In our experience as school bus accident lawyers, school bus accidents happen frequently for a variety of reasons: mechanical problems with the school bus; school bus driver’s negligence; or negligence by a third party.
Personal Injury Claim – Part Two
The legal case must resonate with the claims adjuster or a juror. The attorneys at Brian Elston Law work with each client to put together each component. In doing so, they hope to rock the adjuster or jury in providing each client with the maximum amount of justice.
Personal Injury Claim
Someone injured in an accident because of someone’s negligence has the right to know what justice they can expect. The individual’s life has likely been turned upside down. I’ve resolved countless motor vehicle accident, personal injury and workers’ compensation cases.
Settlement Negotiations
Engaging in direct settlement negotiations with a claims adjuster can be as intimidating as a sixth-grader going to their first dance. You’ve probably (and hopefully) never had to settle a personal injury claim, so you aren’t sure of what moves to make and what to do.
The Misapplication Of The Sudden Emergency Doctrine
I see “the sudden emergency doctrine” pop up as a defendant’s response. Using the baseball-through-the-windowanalogy, defendant’s try and blame the throw or the bad catch as the emergency. However, that “emergency” wouldn’t have happened if they followed the rules.
Can I Sue a Teacher
Students get hurt at school for various reasons. Sometimes, those reasons are just an unavoidable accident with no one to blame. Sometimes, those reasons might have something to do with the actions (or inactions) of your child’s teacher. You have legal options.
