LOS ANGELES TRAFFIC DEATHS AND INJURIES INCREASING

January 10, 2022 | by Robert Walch

MORE L.A. CAR, TRUCK, MOTORCYCLE, BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS RESULTING IN WRONGFUL DEATH AND SERIOUS INJURY CLAIMS

Despite Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti’s goal of eliminating all traffic deaths by the year 2025, unfortunately traffic deaths and injuries have actually increased.

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) just released data that up to December 25, 2021, 289 persons were killed in traffic collisions from January 1, 2021 to December 25, 2021. That is an increase of 21% more deaths than the year before (2020) and an increase of 19% more than the year before that (2019). You may click here to learn more about wrongful death claims and experienced wrongful death lawyers. [As an aside, one does wonder why the LAPD was unable over a week into 2022 to provide date until the end of December 31, 2021? Perhaps the reason is the prior years’ statistics cover this same unusual ending date and its best to compare exact time periods?]

Traffic Accidents and Wrongful Death Cases Increase During the Covid 19 Pandemic

December 15, 2021 | by Robert Walch

There have been 38,680 reported deaths on U.S. roads during 2020, according to the National Safety Council, a nonprofit organization. Many of these traffic accidents result in wrongful death claims. This is the most car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident and other motor vehicle deaths since 2007. What is most startling about this motor vehicle wrongful death statistic is that we know that the quarantine shut-downs of the coronavirus 19 pandemic drastically reduced driving and traffic, so why would traffic accidents resulting in deaths increase?

The National Safety Council stated that this wrongful death statistic “was completely unprecedented.” It added, “We didn’t know what was happening.”

Different possibilities for this increase in car and other motor vehicle death cases include that drivers are stressed out due to all the health, financial and other problems caused by this pandemic. The National Safety Council opined that American drivers were releasing their anxieties and other problems, such as depression and feelings of isolation and loneliness, on the more wide-open roads that resulted from much less travel.

Consumer Protection – New Scam – Buy Gold Bullion and Make Thousands or Millions Consumers Beware! Do NOT be Tricked!

September 9, 2021 | by Robert Walch

Receive an intriguing unsolicited message from an unknown sender via an app, such as Whats App, respond to it and be drawn into an interesting conversation. Before you know it, the supposed woman on the other end wants to celebrate because she invested some money in gold (or some other precious metal, commodity or cryptocurrency) and made a huge profit in a short time, with little to no risk.

The person on the other end may even send an official looking graph or statement that appears to show this huge profit. That’s right – she bought gold bullion via a trading company then sold it just 15 to 20 minutes later and made a huge profit, perhaps even over a million dollars. Sound tempting? Too good to be true? Yes of course!

Then, a few days later this incredible investment opportunity occurs again. By the third time she has lured you in so that you either request to be included or she convinces you to do it. She suggests you transfer money to start to open the new required “trading account” then her teacher/mentor/relative, who supposedly works with or used to work with a famous brokerage or company and has many special contacts or insider information, will advise when to buy and sell. They claim they will do this for you because you are now a “good” friend of the scammer.
