Steps After a Quartzsite Desert Tour ATV Accident

By Motorcycle Accident, Personal Injury, Premises Liability, Product Liability, Public Entity

Have you ever thought about the risks that can come from an off-road Desert Tour in Quartzsite? Known for its rugged landscape, Quartzsite is where visitors often take part in guided 4WD and ATV tours exploring old gold mines, small cabins, and open desert terrain. While these experiences can be exciting, it is important to be aware of a Quartzsite Desert Tour ATV Accident, as mishaps can still happen even in the middle of an adventure.

Safety Tips Before Booking a Desert Tour

  • Research the company’s safety record
  • Ask about training and certifications
  • Check equipment condition
  • Confirm safety gear is provided
  • Understand the route and difficulty level
  • Read the waiver carefully about the risks and responsibilities

In the Heat of the Moment

It is natural to tense up or freeze in stressful situations, but reacting this way can put both you and your loved ones at greater risk. Staying calm and aware in these situations can make all the difference in keeping everyone safe. Preparing ahead of time, like talking through “what-if” scenarios, can also help you feel more confident if an emergency arises and you need to act.

Personal Checklist

How you can be ready:

Knowing Who is Liable

After an accident, it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed and unsure of what comes next.

Stuffing Joy Jars for Kids With Cancer

A Return That Meant Something

Volunteering for kids with cancer looks different for everyone, but for the Fielding Law team, it meant returning to the headquarters of the Jessie Rees Foundation to stuff JoyJars once again. From the moment the team walked in, there was a shared sense of purpose.

This was not a first visit. However, volunteering for kids with cancer a second time brought a deeper level of connection. Familiar faces, meaningful work, and a mission rooted in hope created a day that stayed with everyone long after it ended.

Volunteering For Kids With Cancer Through JoyJars

At its core, volunteering for kids with cancer can be simple. The team gathered around tables, carefully filling each JoyJar with small items meant to bring comfort and distraction. Then, each jar was packed with intention.

Although the items may seem small, the impact is not. Each jar is created for a child facing treatment. Because of that, every piece placed inside carries meaning.

In addition, the experience brings people together. It allows teams to slow down and focus on something bigger than themselves. That shift matters.

A Perspective That Stays With You

After volunteering for kids with cancer, many people leave with a different outlook. The day does not feel ordinary. Instead, it feels grounding.

Clark H. Fielding, who participated for the second time, shared,
“You always feel a sense of gratitude, enlightenment, and purpose after serving. It brings a clearer life perspective and helps reprioritize what truly matters.”

His words reflect what the team experienced. As a result, everyday stress feels quieter. Priorities feel clearer. Gratitude becomes easier to recognize.

Why Volunteering For Kids With Cancer Matters To Us

For Fielding Law, volunteering for kids with cancer is part of a larger commitment to helping people. While legal work focuses on guiding clients through difficult moments, community outreach allows the team to give back in a different way.

More importantly, it reflects who they are. Showing up matters. Being present matters. Supporting others, in any way possible, matters.

Because of that, these moments are not one time events. They are part of an ongoing effort to stay connected to the community.

Carrying Service Forward

After a day like this, the feeling does not fade quickly. Instead, it follows you into everyday life.

What once felt important may shift. Challenges can feel more manageable. A clearer sense of perspective begins to take shape and stays present in quiet ways.

Volunteering for kids with cancer does more than support others. It leaves a lasting impression on those who show up to serve.

At Fielding Law, that perspective is something the team values deeply. If you need guidance after an injury, you can call 833.88.SHARK for a free consultation. The team is here to help with care, clarity, and compassion.

Can I Still Recover if I Was Partially at Fault in Arizona?

By Bicycle Accident, Car Accident, Dog / Animal Bite, Motorcycle Accident, Pedestrian Accident, Personal Injury

Yes. You can still recover money in Arizona even if you were partly at fault for the crash. However, your recovery goes down based on your share of fault. Still, you are not blocked from bringing a claim.

Arizona uses a comparative fault rule. Because of this, each person in a crash gets a share of fault.

How Shared Fault Affects Compensation in Arizona

Your compensation goes down based on fault percentage. However, you can still recover the rest from the other party.

For example, if damages equal 100,000 dollars and you are 20 percent at fault, then you recover 80,000 dollars.

How Fault Is Decided in Arizona

Fault gets decided after a full review of the facts. In most cases, both insurance companies and investigators look at the same evidence.

Common evidence includes:

  • Police reports
  • Witness statements
  • Photos and video
  • Vehicle damage
  • Traffic laws
  • Medical records

In addition, timing matters. For example, early medical care can support your version of events. Also, crash photos can help show how the accident happened.

Insurance Companies and Shared Fault

Insurance companies often try to raise your fault percentage. As a result, they can reduce what they pay.

Even a small change in fault can make a big difference. Therefore, strong evidence can matter a lot in these cases.

Why Fault Percentage Matters

Fault percentage directly changes your recovery. Because of this, small shifts can have large results.

For example:

  • 10 percent fault on 100,000 dollars means 90,000 dollars recovery
  • 30 percent fault on 100,000 dollars means 70,000 dollars recovery

What to Do After a Crash Involving Shared Fault

After a crash, fault may not be clear. In fact, it often changes after a full review.

So, it helps to:

Early details can help support your claim later.

Why Hire Fielding Law

Fielding Law helps injured people understand how Arizona fault rules apply after a crash. In many cases, both sides try to shift blame. Because of that, careful review of the facts matters.

Fielding Law works to protect clients from unfair fault claims. At the same time, the firm pushes for fair compensation for medical bills, lost income, and other losses.

If you have questions after a crash, call 833.88.SHARK.

the word Myth made into a sandcastle wiped out by a wave at the beach

Top 10 Personal Injury Myths Exposed

By Car Accident, Dog / Animal Bite, Personal Injury, Premises Liability, Slip or Trip and Fall, Wrongful Death

Believing common personal injury myths can hold people back from taking the right steps after an accident. Many individuals assume they do not have a case or that the process is too complicated. As a result, they may miss opportunities to recover compensation for their injuries.

Understanding the truth is essential. When you know what to expect, you can make informed decisions and move forward with greater confidence. Below, we break down the most common myths and explain what you should actually know.

Debunking Personal Injury Myths

Myth 1 Only Severe Injuries Deserve Compensation

Even minor injuries may qualify for compensation. For example, soft tissue injuries can lead to ongoing pain, physical therapy, and missed work. Over time, these costs add up. Therefore, it is important to take every injury seriously, even if it does not seem severe at first.

Myth 2 Quick Settlements Are the Best Option

A quick settlement may feel like relief. However, early offers are often lower than what your claim may truly be worth. In many cases, the full extent of injuries is not yet known. Taking time allows for a more accurate evaluation of medical costs, lost income, and long term impact.

Myth 3 Personal Injury Claims Always Go to Court

Many people worry about going to trial. In reality, most personal injury cases are resolved through settlement. Strong negotiation can often lead to a fair outcome without the need for court involvement.

Myth 4 Only Car Accidents Qualify

Personal injury law covers a wide range of situations. For instance, claims may arise from slip and falls, dog bites, unsafe premises, or other negligent actions. If someone else’s carelessness caused harm, there may be a valid claim.

Myth 5 You Can Handle It Alone

While it is possible to handle a claim independently, it can be challenging. Insurance companies have experience and resources on their side. Having legal representation can help protect your rights and ensure your claim is properly valued.

Myth 6 You Can Wait to File a Claim

Timing is critical. Each state has deadlines for filing a personal injury claim. Waiting too long may prevent you from pursuing compensation altogether. Speaking with an attorney early helps preserve your options.

Myth 7 Insurance Companies Always Offer Fair Settlements

Insurance companies aim to limit payouts. Because of this, initial settlement offers may not reflect the full value of your claim. It is important to carefully review any offer before accepting.

Myth 8 Personal Injury Claims Are Expensive

Many people hesitate because they are concerned about cost. However, Fielding Law works on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay upfront, making legal support accessible when you need it most.

Myth 9 Only Physical Injuries Count

Not all injuries are visible. Emotional distress, anxiety, and mental suffering can also impact your life. These damages may be considered as part of a personal injury claim.

Myth 10 You Need to Know the Value of Your Case First

Many people believe they must know exactly what their case is worth before reaching out for help. In reality, determining the value of a personal injury claim can be complex. It often involves medical expenses, lost income, future care, and other factors that are not always obvious at the start. Speaking with an attorney can help you better understand what your claim may involve and what factors could impact its value.

What To Do After an Injury

After an accident, taking the right steps can protect both your health and your potential claim.

These actions can make a meaningful difference as your case develops.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a personal injury case?

If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may have a claim. An attorney can help evaluate your situation based on the details.

How long do I have to file a claim?

The timeline depends on state laws and the specifics of your case. Acting sooner rather than later is always recommended.

Do I need an attorney for a personal injury claim?

While not required, legal guidance can help you better understand your rights and pursue fair compensation.

Why Hire Fielding Law

Navigating personal injury myths can feel overwhelming, especially when you are already dealing with an injury. At Fielding Law, we focus on providing clear guidance with professionalism, care, and attention to detail. Our team works to understand your situation and help you pursue a fair outcome while keeping the process as smooth as possible.

The Chapman Competitions Reception at Chapman University’s Dale E. Fowler School of Law, held in Kennedy Hall, honored students competing in the 2025 to 2026 advocacy competitions season. The event brought together students, alumni, and coaches to recognize growth in trial and appellate advocacy.

What Insurance Companies Do Not Tell Injury Victims

By Bicycle Accident, Bus Accident, Car Accident, Motorcycle Accident, Pedestrian Accident, Personal Injury, Premises Liability, Slip or Trip and Fall

Common Practices Insurance Companies Do Not Disclose

When you are injured in an accident, the last thing you want is added stress. Insurance companies are often quick to contact victims after an incident, but their primary goal is to protect their bottom line, not yours. Understanding their tactics can help you avoid mistakes that may affect your claim.

1. Early Contact Is Not Always Helpful

Insurance adjusters will often reach out soon after an accident to gather statements. While they may appear friendly or concerned, every word you share can be used to minimize your claim. They may not tell you that admitting even minor details could limit compensation later.

2. They May Undervalue Your Claim

Insurance companies have standard formulas to calculate compensation, and these often fail to consider long-term medical costs, lost wages, or emotional trauma. They rarely explain that their initial settlement offers are usually lower than what you deserve.

3. Recorded Statements Are Risky

You may be asked to give a recorded statement. Adjusters present this as routine, but they may use your words against you. They rarely warn that statements taken out of context can reduce or even deny your claim.

4. They Count on Quick Settlements

Insurance companies prefer to settle claims quickly to avoid higher payouts. They rarely tell you that waiting to fully understand your injuries, including ongoing medical treatment, could result in fairer compensation.

5. Legal Representation Is Your Right

Many victims do not know that you can consult an attorney before speaking with an insurance adjuster. Adjusters may not emphasize that having legal representation ensures your rights are protected and can significantly increase your chances of fair compensation.

Protect Yourself After an Injury

  • Do not give detailed statements without consulting an attorney.

  • Keep thorough records of medical treatment, expenses, and missed work.

  • Consult a personal injury lawyer before accepting any settlement offer.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we guide injury victims through the claims process while protecting their rights. We know the strategies insurance companies use to minimize payouts, and we fight for the compensation our clients deserve. Call 833.88.SHARK to speak with a knowledgeable attorney who will prioritize your well-being and your claim.

A white care in the middle of the street intersection with tire smoke and a large crowd of people around. Street takeover at nightfall

Street Takeover Injuries in Los Angeles. Do You Have Rights?

By Car Accident, Personal Injury

Street takeovers, sometimes called “sideshows,” are not new. However, social media has pushed them back into the spotlight. What looks exciting online often turns dangerous in seconds. A street takeover injury Los Angeles situation can leave victims facing serious physical, emotional, and financial stress.

In Los Angeles, these events now happen more often. Large crowds gather, intersections get blocked, and drivers perform risky stunts. As a result, innocent people often get hurt.

We Help Victims of Street Takeover Injuries

If you were hurt because of reckless driving at a street takeover, you do not have to handle it on your own. At Fielding Law, the focus is on helping people who were injured due to negligent behavior.

Street takeovers often involve careless and dangerous actions. Because of that, victims may have the right to pursue compensation. Whether you were a bystander, driver, or passenger, a street takeover injury Los Angeles case may allow you to recover damages for your losses.

In addition, these cases can involve multiple parties, which can make the process feel overwhelming. With the right legal guidance, you can better understand your options and take steps toward recovery.

What Is a Street Takeover?

A street takeover happens when drivers shut down roads or intersections to perform stunts like drifting or spinning. People often plan these events online, which helps them grow fast.

However, no safety rules exist at these events. There are no barriers, no trained staff, and no emergency planning. Because of this, a street takeover injury Los Angeles risk increases for everyone nearby.

Why They Are So Dangerous

Street takeovers create fast-moving and unsafe conditions. For example:

  • Drivers lose control
  • Crowds stand too close to moving cars
  • Roads get blocked, slowing emergency help
  • Panic can spread quickly

As a result, even one mistake can cause a serious street takeover injury Los Angeles incident.

Do You Have Rights If You Are Injured?

Yes, you may have rights after an injury. California law allows many victims to seek compensation when someone else acts carelessly.

You may have a claim if you were:

  • Walking nearby
  • Watching the event
  • Driving through the area
  • Riding as a passenger

Because of a street takeover injury Los Angeles, you may recover:

Therefore, learning your rights early can help you move forward.

Who Is Liable for a Street Takeover Injury?

Figuring out fault in a street takeover injury Los Angeles case can feel complex. However, several parties may share responsibility.

The Driver Performing Stunts

Drivers often cause the most harm. They speed, lose control, and put others at risk.

Event Organizers

People who plan or promote these events may also share blame. Their actions help create the dangerous setting.

Participants and Crowd Members

Some people block roads or help the drivers. Because of that, they may also carry responsibility.

Vehicle Owners

If someone else owns the car, that owner may still face liability in some cases.

Government Entities

Sometimes, road conditions play a role. In those cases, a public entity may become involved. However, these claims follow strict rules and short deadlines.

What If You Were a Spectator?

Many people think spectators cannot file claims. However, that is not always true.

Insurance companies may argue that you accepted the risk. Even so, that does not end the case. If the danger went beyond what you expected, you may still have a valid street takeover injury Los Angeles claim.

Laws and Enforcement Are Increasing

California continues to respond to these events. As a result, penalties have increased.

These may include:

  • Vehicle impoundment
  • Fines
  • License suspension

Even with stronger laws, these events still happen. Therefore, injuries continue to occur.

Why This Trend Continues

Several factors drive this trend:

  • Social media attention
  • Easy online planning
  • Thrill-seeking behavior

Because of this, street takeovers spread quickly and draw large crowds.

What To Do After an Injury

After a street takeover injury Los Angeles, quick action matters. These cases often involve many people and complex facts.

An attorney can help you:

  • Identify who caused the harm
  • Review insurance coverage
  • Understand your options

In addition, early guidance can help protect your claim.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, the team focuses on helping people harmed by negligence. A street takeover injury Los Angeles case can feel overwhelming. However, the right legal support can make the process clearer and more manageable.

The team approaches every case with care, professionalism, and attention to detail. If you or a loved one has suffered a street takeover injury Los Angeles, call 833.88.SHARK to discuss your situation.

When Your Sense of Touch Changes After an Injury

By Brain Injury (TBI), Personal Injury, Spinal Cord Injury

The sense of touch helps people interact with the world every day. It allows us to feel temperature, pressure, pain, and comfort. After an accident, however, this sense can change. Loss of touch after injury may occur when trauma affects nerves, the spinal cord, or the brain.

Although some injuries are visible, changes in sensation may develop quietly. For example, a person may notice numbness, tingling, or reduced feeling in certain parts of the body. In other cases, the body may struggle to recognize touch at all.

Because of this, changes in sensation can affect safety, movement, and daily activities.

How Injuries Can Affect Touch

The sense of touch depends on a network of nerves throughout the body. These nerves send signals from the skin to the spinal cord and brain. Then the brain interprets those signals and identifies sensations.

An injury can interrupt this system in several ways.

Common causes of loss of touch after injury include:

Even a single damaged nerve can change sensation in a specific area of the body.

Signs Your Sense of Touch May Be Affected

Loss of touch after injury may appear in different ways. Some people experience numbness. Others notice unusual sensations.

Common symptoms include:

  • Numbness in the hands, feet, arms, or legs

  • Tingling or a “pins and needles” feeling

  • Reduced ability to feel heat or cold

  • Difficulty sensing pressure or pain

  • Increased sensitivity to touch

Sometimes these symptoms affect only a small area. However, more serious injuries may affect larger parts of the body.

When Nerve Damage Is Involved

Nerves play a key role in carrying touch signals. When an accident damages these nerves, sensation may change or disappear.

For example, a car crash may cause nerve compression in the neck or back. Similarly, a fall or impact may damage nerves in the arms or legs. As a result, the brain may receive weak or incorrect signals.

Doctors may use physical exams, imaging tests, or nerve studies to understand how the injury affected the nervous system.

The Impact on Daily Life

Loss of touch after injury can affect many parts of daily life. Without normal sensation, simple tasks may become more difficult.

People may struggle with:

  • Holding objects safely

  • Detecting heat or cold

  • Maintaining balance

  • Completing detailed tasks with their hands

In addition, reduced sensation may increase the risk of burns, cuts, or other injuries because the body does not recognize danger as quickly.

Touch Loss and Personal Injury Claims

When nerve damage or sensory loss results from an accident caused by negligence, the impact may continue long after the initial injury. Medical evaluations, therapy, and rehabilitation may become necessary.

Doctors often document loss of touch after injury through neurological exams and testing. These records help show how the injury affects daily activities and physical function.

Each accident is different. Determining responsibility often requires careful review of the facts surrounding the injury.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we understand that injuries can affect the body in ways that are not always visible. Loss of touch after injury may change how someone moves, works, and interacts with their environment. Our team approaches every case with compassion, professionalism, and careful attention to each client’s experience. If an injury occurred because of someone else’s negligence, Fielding Law is here to help you understand your options. Call 833.88.SHARK to speak with a team that prioritizes kindness, clear communication, and client care.

Why Are Semi-Truck Accidents So Dangerous?

By Car Accident, Personal Injury, Truck Accident

Driving behind a semi-truck can be intimidating. With their massive size and roaring engines, they demand your full attention. Understanding the Dangers of a Semi-Truck Accident can help you stay safer on the road and know your rights if a collision occurs.

Size and Weight

A fully loaded semi-truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds, about 20 times heavier than the average passenger vehicle. This enormous weight difference means that in a collision, the force exerted by a semi-truck can cause devastating damage. Because of this, even minor accidents can result in serious injuries.

Longer Stopping Distances

Due to their massive size and weight, semi-trucks require a much longer distance to slow down or come to a full stop. As a result, sudden stops or traffic changes can quickly turn deadly if drivers are not cautious.

Truck Blind Spots Are Bigger

One of the most unsettling things about driving near a semi-truck is the large blind spots. Being in a truck’s blind spot can be just as dangerous as speeding or sudden stops, so maintaining distance is critical.

Your Semi-Truck Accident Lawyer

After a semi truck accident, having a Fielding Law attorney by your side who understands your situation can help provide clarity and peace during a challenging time. Truck accident cases can involve trucking companies, insurance companies and other parties. These cases can also include complicated regulations and insurance issues that make these claims very different from typical car accident cases. Our experienced team understands these challenges and works to guide you through the process while protecting your rights. Given the dangers of a semi-truck accident, our attorneys conduct thorough investigations and understand commercial trucking regulations to safeguard your case. Contact us at 833.88.SHARK for a free consultation with a team you can trust.
