Inner Tube Accidents
The inflatable inner tube is a stable raft that can keep children or adults afloat in the water, whether it is in a swimming pool, on a waterslide, or on a lake or river. Riding an inner tube seems like one of the safest water activities you can do. You are less likely to… Read More »
Rainy Day Motorcycle Safety
People who have never lived in Florida have an unrealistic idea about the Florida summers.

Your baby cousin is a dad now, and his children watch the “Baby Shark” video on an endless loop just like yours do, but when he was three years old, a good 25 percent of his vocabulary consisted of… Read More »
Alligator Attacks on Canoes and Kayaks
The spring, from April through June, is alligator mating season, which means that gators tend to travel over a larger range than they do during other parts of the year. They are also more aggressive, as males compete for mates and females protect their nests. Florida’s alligator population is over 1 million, and with… Read More »
Anesthesia Malpractice in Outpatient Surgery Clinics
Anyone who has gotten the bill after a hospital stay understands why people breathe a sigh of relief when a doctor tells them that it is possible to perform the surgery they need on an outpatient basis.
