SEEKING GREAT ATTORNEYS TO JOIN OUR VACCINE PRACTICE

Are you a lawyer who’s looking for a job where you can help people who really need a great lawyer? Do you want to join a great team of lawyers who are dedicated to serving people who’ve been injured by the negative side effects of vaccines? At Shannon Law Group, we help people across the United States so they can recover after an adverse reaction to a vaccination. We do this by pursuing compensation on their behalf through a federal program called the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. Our firm is currently seeking lawyers who can help our clients succeed. You’ll fit the bill if: 1. You are compassionate. 2. You have a tremendous work ethic, meaning you are prepared to work full-time for our clients. 3. You are a good listener. 4. You are a team player. 5. You are a great teacher who can educate future clients on the issues of vaccine law.

6. You want to learn the science of vaccines. 7. You are client-focused. 8. You are restless (just like our clients) and therefore committed to pushing cases to trial or resolution as fast as humanly possible. 9. You understand how to review and analyze medical records. 10. You have experience in personal injury litigation.

If this is you, please text me at 312-847-2428. I would like to speak with you about joining our team.

Gratefully,

BUILDING A BASIC ROADSIDE EMERGENCY KIT

• Food: High-calorie protein bars are recommended, but any nonperishable food snacks will do. • Waterproof rain jacket or poncho • Three roadside flares or reflective warning triangles: To be placed several feet apart to warn oncoming traffic. • Whistle and florescent distress flag • Flashlight: A rechargeable flashlight that fits in the car’s 12-volt outlet works best. If you pack a battery-operated flashlight, be sure to include a set of batteries. • Fire extinguisher: Rated for Class B or Class C fires by the National Fire Protection Association. • Basic first aid kit: Any first aid kit sold at local stores will have enough supplies to help you in an emergency. Consider adding any important medication for you or your family, such as insulin or an EpiPen. • Car emergency tool kit: You can purchase car emergency kits online, or you can build one yourself. Most kits include jumper cables, tire repair kit, tow rope, window glass breaker, and more. Want more tips? Request a free copy of our book, “Be Prepared: Your Ultimate Guide to Common Roadside Emergencies and Safety.” Text “PREPARED” to 312-847-2428 to get your free copy today.

September is National Preparedness Month. Emergencies can happen anywhere, especially while you’re on the road. Assembling an emergency preparedness kit is a must for any driver, no matter where you live. When you do face an emergency, you’ll be glad you have it. If you are stranded or stuck on the side of the road, the following items will help keep you safe: • Small backpack: To store your kit and carry in case you need to leave the car. • Cellphone charger: Most cars now have USB ports for phone chargers. If your vehicle does not have one, consider buying an adapter that plugs into the cigarette lighter. • Blanket: Blankets aren’t just for picnics. They’re great for changing tires in mud or rain, or for keeping you warm in below-freezing temperatures. Wool blankets are best, as they can keep you warm if they get damp. • Bottled drinking water and/or water filters: Pack a small case of water bottles. You can also include personal water filters (like the ones made by LifeStraw). These filters can save you in a pinch if you’re stranded, out of water, and close to a natural water source.

3 SCHOOL BUS SAFETY TIPS FOR DRIVERS Keeping Our Roads and Kids Safe

This fall, students across the U.S. return to the classroom. During this transition period, hundreds of thousands of school bus drivers will resume their routes. In America, school bus drivers help an estimated 26 million students get to school and home every day. However, school buses share the road with other vehicles — passenger cars, motorcycles, pickup trucks, and large commercial vehicles. A percentage of school bus-related accidents happen when school children are getting in or out of the vehicle. To keep these kids safe, here are some tips for drivers from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration: • Slow down and watch for children near bus stops or school zones, especially during pickup and drop-off times. Students arriving late may dart into the street without looking for traffic. Children may also play and gather at bus stops. • Learn and obey the school bus laws in your state. In Illinois, for example, school buses are required to stop at all railroad crossings, regardless of whether a train is approaching.

Watch for flashing lights and extended stop arms on school buses. In all states, school bus drivers use a flashing signal light system to alert motorists of impending actions. Yellow flashing lights indicate the bus is preparing to stop to pick up or drop off a passenger. Red flashing lights and extended stop arms indicate that the bus has stopped and children are getting on or off. Drivers must stop their vehicles and wait until the red lights stop flashing and the extended arm is withdrawn.
