May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month.
As temperatures rise across Texas, more motorcyclists take to the road. Late spring and early summer are popular times for riding, whether it’s a daily commute, a weekend road trip, or simply enjoying the warmer weather.
Children are especially vulnerable to swimming pool accidents.
Swimming pools are one of the most popular ways to cool off during a Texas summer. Whether at a private home, apartment complex, hotel, or community center, pools provide a place for families to relax and have fun.
Texas’s “One-Bite Rule” doesn’t excuse negligent owners.
Key Takeaway:
You may be able to file a claim after a first-time dog bite in Texas if the owner knew the dog was dangerous or failed to act reasonably in controlling it.
Whether traveling or staying local, knowing your rights after a spring break injury is crucial.
Spring break is in full swing. For many Texas families, it’s a chance to travel, relax, and spend time together. However, increased travel also brings a higher risk of accidents and injuries.
Hotel and resort injuries increase during the winter months.
February in Texas brings festivals, Valentine’s Day celebrations, and long weekends. Many Texans take this time to book a hotel or resort stay for a short getaway. While these trips are meant to be relaxing, accidents can happen—especially when properties are crowded or poorly maintained.
Valentine’s Day weekend will have an increased risk of car accidents.
Valentine’s Day is a time for dinner plans, date nights, and spending time with people you care about. Across Texas, many people head out in the evening to restaurants, bars, concerts, and hotels. With more drivers on the road—and more alcohol involved—the risk of car accidents increases.
Construction sites have unique hazards in January.
Returning to work after the holidays can be tough. Schedules change, workloads increase, and crews must adjust quickly. For construction workers, January also brings cold-weather risks.
Car accidents spike in January as commuters return to work.
When the holidays end and daily routines return, Texas roads become much busier. Offices reopen, schools resume, and commuters head back to work in full force. As traffic increases, so does the risk of car accidents.
Children are especially vulnerable on Halloween night.
Halloween is one of the most exciting nights of the year for kids. From dressing up as their favorite characters to collecting candy around the neighborhood, it’s a time filled with fun and adventure. But while children enjoy the thrill of trick-or-treating, Halloween also brings serious safety concerns. In fact, it’s considered one of the most dangerous holidays for young pedestrians.
Injuries at high school football games can have lifelong consequences.
Cheering for your favorite team should be about excitement and community—not about ending the night in the emergency room. While injuries to players are an expected part of sports, injuries to fans in the stands or at tailgates are often overlooked. With football season back in full swing, it’s worth taking a closer look at the risks fans face at games and what legal options are available when those risks turn into real harm.
