Sheriff’s Deputy Injured In Hit And Run Collision In Front Of School

By The Stanley Law Group |

Accidental injuries expose everyone’s financial vulnerability.  If you are a full-time employee, you are in a better position than most.  Your employer-provided health insurance will reduce the cost of your medical expenses, although the portion you pay will still be considerable.  If your employer provides paid medical leave or short-term or long-term disability insurance,… Read More »
