No. 3: Always follow the directions to your fireworks.
Fireworks may be fun, but the directions must always be followed. For general, important guidelines, remember: Light only one firework at a time and always at a safe distance. Never hold lit fireworks in your hands and never light them indoors. Also, make sure your fireworks are always used away from people, houses, and flammable materials. You don’t want fireworks to hurt someone by surprise.

No. 4: Don’t play with fireworks while under the influence.
INGREDIENTS
If you’ve been drinking or taking drugs — even if you’re just on the second vaccine shot — you may want to reconsider preparing or lighting any fireworks yourself. Fireworks aren’t a toy to be reckoned with, and they require keen awareness to keep you healthy and safe. When in doubt, leave the fireworks to the professionals.

The salad pairs well with grilled entrees and can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Our Case Facts
Recently, we had a case where a client walked into a popular breakfast restaurant chain and fell as a result of wet flooring. There was no sign, and she suffered tremendous injuries to her left hip and right arm. She couldn’t carry anything — which made an independent lifestyle much more difficult for her. Also, she endured serious back pain as well as left knee, right ankle, and shoulder pain. For the client, these injuries would require a few months of rehabilitation, which would incur significant bills. It was only right to confront the restaurant to ensure the future of her health was provided for.

The Case Results
“THE WORK GOES ON, THE CAUSE ENDURES, THE HOPE STILL LIVES, AND THE DREAMS SHALL NEVER DIE.”
How do you prove that a property owner was negligent? As an attorney, we try to prove three things: (1) the owner/possessor created the condition, (2) the owner/possessor knew the condition existed and negligently failed to correct it, and (3) the condition existed for such a length of time that the owner/possessor should have discovered and corrected it prior to the slip-and-fall incident in question.
Thankfully, we were able to prove negligence, and our client received her compensation to ensure financial safety during her recovery.
