Attorney Jim Brady and Associates, P.C.

Compassion After My Car Accident “I feel very fortunate a family member referred Jim Brady after my car accident. When I called, I talked to Anne, and immediately, I felt the compassion and care she gave me. On my 1st visit, I met with Jim and Anne, and they explained the process; it made me feel very comfortable with my decision, and I was able to concentrate on getting better. I really appreciate what they did for me and my family. When someone needs an attorney, Jim Brady is who I recommend.“ Thank you, Gladys I.

Top 3 Causes of Car Accidents Car accidents happen every day, and many are preventable. To stay safer on the road, avoid these three common causes of car accidents. 📱 Distracted Driving: Texting, eating, adjusting the GPS—these distractions pull your focus away from the road. Taking your eyes off the road for even a few seconds can cause a crash. ✅ Put your phone in “Do Not Disturb” mode while driving and keep both hands on the wheel. 🏁 Speeding: Driving above the speed limit reduces your ability to react to sudden changes, like a car braking ahead of you or an icy patch on the road. Speeding is a leading factor in fatal accidents because it increases the severity of crashes. ✅ Tip: Give yourself extra time to reach your destination and stick to posted speed limits. 🥴 Impaired Driving: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs slows reaction times and impairs judgment. Why it matters: It’s not just illegal—it’s one of the deadliest causes of accidents. ✅ Tip: Always designate a sober driver or use a ride-sharing service if you’ve been drinking. At Brady Law, we’ve seen the life-changing consequences of these mistakes, and we’re committed to sharing any knowledge that helps keep our community safe. Stay alert, drive defensively, and remember getting home safe is the most important goal. . . . . #CarAccidents #RoadSafety #BradyLawCares #KnowYourRights #DistractedDriving #Speeding #ImpairedDriving #LegalEducation #CommunitySupport

Who’s at Fault in Multi-Car Accidents? It’s not always obvious who is at fault in an accident when there are multiple vehicles involved. Imagine you’re stopped at a red light, and you’re rear-ended because someone hit the car behind you. Who’s responsible? Sometimes, many drivers share the blame. Like most legal cases, fault is determined by the evidence. If you’ve been hit, you’ll want to make sure you have as many items on this list as possible. 1️⃣ Photos showing the car's positions and damage 2️⃣ Witness statements 3️⃣ Police reports 4️⃣ Traffic cam footage or dashcam videos - this is super helpful Fault can be easier to find if you can prove someone was tailgating or ran a red light. Sometimes, personal injury attorneys like me hire accident reconstruction specialists to analyze the scene. Cases like these have a lot of moving parts—literally. The more you know, the better prepared you’ll be if you ever find yourself in a situation like this.

“Standing” - Legal Terms You Should Know When you hear the word "standing" in a legal context, it might seem abstract, but it’s one of the most important concepts in law. Standing determines whether you have the right to bring a lawsuit in court. Knowing what it means can help you understand your rights and when you can take legal action. Here are the key points about standing and why it matters: 📍 It’s About Being Personally Affected: You’ve got to be able to show you’ve been directly harmed— financially, physically, etc. The harm has to be specific to you, not just a general grievance. 📍 The Harm Must Be Traceable: Can you connect the harm you’ve experienced to the actions of the person or entity you’re suing? 📍 A Court Must Be Able to Fix It: You have standing if a court can provide a remedy, like financial compensation or an order to stop harmful behavior. Here’s how this might come up in your life: 📍 Property Disputes: If your neighbor builds on your property, you have standing because their actions directly impact your rights. 📍 Workplace Violations: If your employer violates your contract or withholds pay, you have standing to file a claim. 📍 Defective Products: If a faulty product causes you harm, you might have standing to join a lawsuit seeking compensation. Standing isn’t just some legal term that only judges and lawyers care about—it can help you know when you have the right to take legal action and what kind of harm qualifies. At Brady Law, we believe that empowering you with knowledge helps you make better decisions about your rights and options.

Legal Basics: What is “Standing” Today’s tip might sound a little unusual, but stick with me—it’s all about ‘standing.’ And no, I’m not talking about standing in line or standing up straight! In the legal world, standing is something you’ll need to bring a lawsuit to court. So, what is standing? It’s your ability to show that you have a stake in the outcome of a case. Basically, you need to prove that you’ve been harmed in some way and that the court can do something to fix it. Without standing, the court might say, ‘Thanks, but this isn’t your fight.’ Here’s a simple example: Let’s say your neighbor builds a fence that crosses onto your property. You’d have standing to take them to court because their actions affect your property. But if your friend across town doesn’t like the fence, they can’t sue—they don’t have standing because it doesn’t affect them personally. Here’s your tip: Before jumping into a legal battle, ask yourself, ‘Do I have standing?’ If you’re not sure, that’s where talking to an attorney can help. We can figure out if you’ve got the right to bring the case and guide you through the process. So, next time you’re watching Law & Order and you hear ‘standing,’ remember: it’s about having a strong legal foundation for your case.

How the Nurse Care Manager Can Affect the Outcome of Your Worker’s Comp Case When you file a workers' compensation claim, you might find yourself dealing with a Nurse Case Manager or NCM. The insurance company hires these professionals to coordinate medical care for injured workers. While they can play a helpful role, it’s important to understand who they work for, their priorities, and how they may affect your case. ⚕️What Do Nurse Case Managers Do? Coordinate Medical Care: They schedule doctor’s appointments, follow up on treatment plans, and oversee rehabilitation progress. Communicate with Stakeholders: NCMs act as intermediaries between you, your healthcare providers, and the insurance company. Monitor Your Recovery: They provide updates to the insurance company about your condition and progress. 🔑 Key Things to Remember They Work for the Insurance Company: While Nurse Case Managers facilitate care, their ultimate priority is the insurance company’s interests—not yours. Their goal is often to manage costs and return you to work as quickly as possible, which may not align with what’s best for your health. You Have Rights: You can decline to have the NCM attend your doctor’s appointments. You can insist on private consultations with your doctor to avoid undue influence on medical decisions. Stay Informed: Know what information the NCM is sharing with the insurance company. Keep your own records of appointments and treatment plans. Knowing who a Nurse Case Manager works for and their priorities really helps you stay in control of your care and recovery. On the surface, they can look like they are your advocate. But, their involvement might not benefit your long-term health or legal case. . . . . #WorkersCompensation #KnowYourRights #BradyLawCares #LegalEducation #NurseCaseManagers #InjuryLawyers #ProtectYourHealth #WorkersRights #CommunitySupport
