Car accidents are filed as one of the most common type of personal injuries. This involves motor vehicles colliding with other automobiles, stationary objects, park vehicles, pedestrians or road debris. These motor vehicles can range from everyday cars to commercial trucks, passenger vans, or delivery automobiles. These collisions often times involve multiple parties and can quickly escalate into a complicated situation if you do not act immediately. An automobile accident can turn into a long process and may take up to weeks for full investigation to finish. During this investigation period, insurance companies are looking for contributing factors for the cause of the accident. Factors may include: vehicle design, road design, driver distraction, driving while intoxicated, and driving speed.
Automobile accidents may have a traumatizing affect on parties involved and when insurance companies know you are in a vulnerable position, they may take advantage of you in order to make the most money. Insurance companies are simply in the business to make money and do not hold you in their best interest. It is important to not make the mistake of reaching out to an insurance company before seeking advice from a personal injury lawyer.

Sydney Criminal Lawyers
Armed robbery is a serious case in all matters. Robbery refers to taking of property by actual or threatened force. A robbery can occur anywhere and involve one or many people. It can take place at a business (usually a service station, bank, or convenience store) or a home (breaking in the house and forcing the occupier to hand over cash, or monetary items), or an incident on the street (usually mugging a person or car jacking). The courts in Sydney do not treat robbery offences lightly, especially when they are alleged to involve weapons or more than one defendant. When a person is harmed or killed, the seriousness of the case is increased significantly. However, there are many times when it can be difficult to provide proof for an armed robbery to the police. In some cases, evidence is not enough to show proof or there may be partial DNA or fingerprint matches. This is the fine line that can prove a person has committed robbery and our lawyers can help you.

High court protects Secret Service agents
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that two Secret Service agents are shielded from a lawsuit filed by a man they arrested after a confrontation with then-Vice President Dick Cheney.
The 8-0 decision comes in a case that began with the arrest of Steven Howards following a chance encounter with Cheney at a shopping center in Colorado in 2006. Howards claimed he was arrested because he expressed his anti-war views.
The agents and the Obama administration asked the court for broad protection against claims of retaliatory arrests. The justices did not grant that wish.
But Justice Clarence Thomas said in his opinion for the court that the agents could not be sued in this instance because of uncertainty about the state of the law concerning such arrests.
The decision reversed a ruling by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver to allow Howards' lawsuit to go forward.
Howards, of Golden, Colo., was detained by Cheney's security detail after he told Cheney of his opposition to the war in Iraq. Howards also touched Cheney on the shoulder, then denied doing so under questioning. The appeals court said the inconsistency gave the agents reason to arrest Howards.
