McKinney Toddler Killed in Tragic Car Crash

This past weekend a McKinney toddler died in a violent accident on the road between Galveston and Houston. The child, just two weeks shy of her second birthday, was riding in the back seat of a Ford F-150 that was being driven by her mother. With the sun going down, the driver lost control of the truck, slamming into a retaining wall. A motorcycle was involved in the accident, raising questions about whether other cars or drivers might have contributed to the deadly wreck.

Jet Fuel Tanker Accident Puts North Texas Drivers at Risk

Incredibly, no one was hurt in a truck accident near Roanoke, Texas, just north of Fort Worth, yesterday that destroyed a tanker truck and a Jeep and threatened many more drivers. When the Jeep and truck collided, the truck’s 5,600 gallons of jet fuel detonated, causing a fire that burned for more than five hours.

The accident isn’t particularly remarkable – violent car and truck accidents happen almost every day, but the fact that such a violent wreck didn’t injury anyone is a surprise. With conditions dry and windy, the intense, long-burning fire could have easily started a brush fire similar to the wildfires that have engulfed large areas of Texas this summer. Moreover, head-on collisions between trucks and cars are often fatal – and frequently lead to collateral accidents and injuries, too!

Parkland Hospital: A Place That Makes You Sick?

Most people think of a hospital as a place where sick people go to get well. According to reports by federal and state health agencies, however, Dallas’s Parkland Hospital is, for some, a place where they become even less healthy. A few patients have even died as a result of mistakes in hospital management and care.

According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Parkland Hospital has caused or is likely to cause serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a patient. CMS specifically attributed its concerns to unsanitary conditions and the hospital’s failure to ensure infection control.

Hospital-related injuries are more common than you might think. And at Parkland Hospital, health care-caused injuries and deaths occur with such frequency that regulatory agencies are threatening to take decisive action!

Have you or a loved suffered because of hospital mismanagement? Has their quality of life been reduced rather than improved? You deserve better. Justice is within your reach. Find out how to protect your loved ones by calling Fears | Nachawati today. Just call us at 1.866.705.7584 or send an email to info@fnlawfirm.com. We can help you!

Dallas Warehouse Fire Threatens Community

An extremely large warehouse storing, among other items, a variety and large quantity of dangerous, pool-related chemicals caught fire recently, threatening to spread to other buildings in the vicinity. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will soon initiate an investigation of the fire—and for good reason! Chemical fires aerosolize dangerous toxins; water used to put out the blaze also frequently conveys carcinogenic chemical compounds into the water supply.

We also understand how to protect you against these risks and, if you’re injured, recover the compensation you deserve. If you’ve been hurt in a chemical fire, give us a call at 1.866.705.7584 or email info@fnlawfirm.com. We can help!
