April is Distracted Driver Awareness Month. Join me in the fight to increase public awareness of the dangers of driving while using mobile devices.
We've all been there. The driver next to us is looking down at her phone. Take a look at the National Safety Council's website:

Distracted Driving is a national problem. In addition to the huge number of accidents confirmed to be caused by cell phone use, an even greater number go unreported. I see the heartbreaking effects in my practice: crippling injuries, huge medical bills, loss of income, family devastation.
I fight and win these cases. Now I'm asking you to join me in the fight. Don't use your phone when you're behind the wheel. Don't talk to someone on the phone who you know is driving.
