If a dentist rushes through a procedure, they could accidentally work on the wrong tooth. Imagine getting a cavity filled on a tooth without a cavity. There have also been instances when the wrong tooth has been extracted, which would then require a replacement with additional expenses. #Montana #DentalDamage #MedicalMalpractice #Lawyers https://lnkd.in/g8T2PcUY

After an accident, you have a responsibility to render aid to anyone who has been injured. According to Montana law that means that you must provide or arrange for transportation to a hospital if the injured person requests it or if medical treatment is necessary. While this is not only a legal requirement, it is also a moral obligation. Your quick actions could mean the difference between life and death. #Missoula #CarAccident #CarInsurance #Police #Laws https://lnkd.in/e_ZAWp-X

Our state sees around 23,000 reports of worker injuries each year, according to the Montana Department of Labor & Industry. While the state agency doesn’t cite specific data for different industries among the statistics described above, it describes construction as being the industry with the most costly injuries. Given how the construction industry sees the costliest injuries, you better bet that insurance companies closely scrutinize any claims they receive. They pull out all the stops to avoid having to pay for medical bills, lost wages, and other related costs. The onus falls on you to prove your case when you suffer personal injuries. If you cannot do so, then you may be unable to recover compensation. This fact may leave you wondering how fault is determined in a construction accident. Keep reading where we’ll explain. #Montana #ConstructionAccident #Attorney https://lnkd.in/evK6yq8M

Drowsy driving is more likely to cause a crash. Just like drunk, drugged, and distracted driving, drowsy driving is a real public health issue, causing thousands of car crashes each year and killing an estimated 6,400 people in the U.S. alone according to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports an estimated 100,000 crashes each year are caused primarily by drowsy driving, resulting in more than 71,000 injuries and $12.5 million in damages. #DrowsyDrivingPreventionWeek #DrowsyDrivingPrevention #DrowsyDriving https://lnkd.in/gbvuFw57
