ABOUT THE BOOK

Bringing Clarity and Simplicity to the Complex Legal, Insurance and Healthcare Systems

Following an accident, an injured victim will be confronted with a complex and confusing path that they must navigate which involves the legal, insurance system, and health care systems. Rather than focusing on recovery, accident victims are asked to make difficult and uninformed decisions that will greatly impact their outcomes and long-term well-being. This book was written to bring clarity to that process and provide sound understanding and general advice for those who find themselves in this situation. Straightforward and unbiased, this book will potentially make the difference between a full recovery and one that falls short.

Hon. (ret.) Judge William Sheffield

In my years on the bench, I saw too many individuals with personal injury claims who came into court without any idea of what to expect. To enter any sort of legal proceeding without being acquainted with the legal process is to do oneself a disservice. Accidents Happen is an excellent first step to consider if you wish to proceed with making a claim.
