Virginia/Carolina Lawyers Discuss Pedestrian & Crosswalk Accidental Injuries

During 2008 one of our personal injury lawyers, Rick Shapiro, settled a case for a pedestrian who was crossing a road (near the intersection) but the road did not have a cross walk or traffic light, and the first personal injury law firm our client called turned his case down--they assumed he must have been partially at fault. Wrong! Rick settled the case after about a year for $100,000. Based on common law in Virginia and in many states, a pedestrian has a right-of-way at a street corner when crossing under circumstances where a car/auto driver has a clear view of the pedestrian.  Please see the link to read the entire discussion of laws applying to pedestrians suffering a personal injury especially in a crosswalk or near a street corner.

Hello, respected colleagues.
you will excuse that not quite on the topic of section of this write.
Give please advice: what rendering-engine of forum to use?
Opened a forum for itself on the site of acquaintances and after a week found out the enormous amount of spam, deleted and in a day discovered in 5 times anymore.
I 3 hours roamed on a network, and did not find a decision. A forum had to be closed.
For you on the site of www.hsinjurylaw.com what rendering-engine does work?
