ROAD TRIPS DON’T HAVE TO BE PAINFUL TRY GAMES, AUDIOBOOKS, AND PODCASTS TO PASS THE TIME

PLAY AN AUDIOBOOK OR PODCAST We get it. Sometimes passengers don’t want to play games. Occasionally, they’d rather relax or take a nap. However, your listening material doesn’t have to be limited to Dad’s favorite music. Instead, consider listening to a family-friendly audiobook or podcast, which can make the longest and most boring parts of your trip an entertaining or educational experience. Almost any popular book is available in audio form, but it can be hard to find an enjoyable podcast. “Transistor” is a science-focused podcast that explores subjects kids and adults will find fascinating. Or if you’re looking for something fictional, try “Storynory,” in which the narrator tells fairy tales and legends from all over the globe.

Summer is right around the corner, which means you’ll soon pile the whole family into the car, ready to brave the road for a vacation. Everyone knows that riding in the car for hours can be torture. But with a little creativity, you can turn the worst part of a long trip into a fun event. PACK A TRAVEL GAME When the excitement of the family vacation starts to wear off, keep the peace and entertain your kids with a travel game. Many board game manufacturers offer travel-sized versions that are easy to pack and play in the car. Before your next road trip, consider purchasing digital Yahtzee, which packs all the fun of the classic game without the dice, or IQ Fit, a logic game with over 100 challenges. At Compton Law, we are determined to help people who may be facing one of the most difficult times of their lives. We specialize in many different fields and branches of the law, enabling us to assist as many people as we can with whatever draining and stressful situation they bring to us. Compton Law is a civil, criminal, and family law firm. We help injury victims and their families recover from serious car accidents, medical mistakes, prescription drug errors, child injuries, and even wrongful death. We can aid couples through divorce and child custody proceedings, and we guide clients through the process of managing the death of a loved one through the probate and estate-administration process.

Both games cost around $10 and can provide hours of entertainment.

INCLUDE THE WHOLE FAMILY Once the travel games no longer pique anyone’s interest, try an activity that can be fun for the whole family: a traditional road trip game. If you have a car full of storytellers, try “Fortunately, Unfortunately.” The rules are simple. The first person starts by saying, “fortunately,” and mentioning something good about the road trip or the destination. The next person (moving clockwise) then follows by saying something “unfortunate” about the previous person’s statement. Take turns with every passenger in the car. If someone stumbles, they get a strike; three strikes and you’re out. The last passenger standing wins. Another branch of law we take on regards any form of nursing home abuse. Compton Law has experience and expertise in handling elder abuse lawsuits. Our experience ensures that we have the resources necessary to tackle these cases and gain justice for nursing home residents and their families. Our goal is not only to recover compensation for nursing home residents who have experienced abuse, but also to deter other elder-care facilities from engaging in similar conduct. Our specialties don’t stop there. We at Compton Law also aim to settle your potentially stress-inducing insurance disputes. Our lawyers are well-versed in insurance law and will do everything we can to hold

WE ARE HERE FOR YOU WHATEVER YOUR CASE MAY BE

insurance companies accountable for the fair sums they owe. We have seen many cases in which an insurance company failed to properly handle or pay an uninsured motorist policy, and the insured was able to collect hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. You paid your premiums, now let us help you gain the compensation you deserve. No matter which case you bring us, we promise to work our hardest to seek the justice you deserve, and if necessary, we will take your case all the way to trial to get it.
