Traffic Violations
Speeding while driving, unfortunately, is ingrained in American culture. Ever since the first U.S. speeding ticket was issued in 1904 (for traveling at 12 miles per hour), speed has been a continuous societal concern as well as a source of controversy. Driving too fast for road conditions is reckless, and driving in excess of posted speed limits endangers lives. Speeding is one of the main factors behind many car crashes, and in 2017, 228 persons died on Nebraska’s roadways.
Sex Crimes
Is another area of premises liability. In these cases, a third-party injures the plaintiff. The victim tries to hold the property owner responsible for their injuries. This trauma may arise from an assault, battery, robbery, or rape.

Of those 64 drivers, police arrested 61 for driving under the influence of alcohol, and three for driving under the influence of drugs.

Hit and Run
A hit-and-run can be something as minor as someone knocking over your mailbox and leaving the scene, grazing your car and driving off, or backing into your vehicle in a parking lot and not leaving a note. By far, the worst offense is causing serious injury to another person.
Property owners must keep their premises safe and hazard-free for visitors, patrons, and the public. They must protect people from icy sidewalks, falling objects, and other hidden dangers. Those who don’t take reasonable precautions to correct problems can injure and harm others. If they don’t, these property owners may be negligent under premises liability law.
Property Damage
That semi-trucks and other heavy trucks were involved in more than 2,200 crashes in 2017. Getting in an accident can produce enormous stress, and financial, emotional, and physical devastation in the worst cases. When an accident includes a large truck, the property damage and physical damage is often even worse. Most heavy trucks weigh 20 to 30 times more than passenger cars, resulting in more severe injuries and more destructive property damage.
If you or a loved one sustained a serious injury as the result of another person’s negligence, you may be wondering what actions you can take to pursue fair compensation. The Nebraska personal injury lawyers at The Robert Pahlke Law Group  believe every negligent accident victim deserves a generous settlement to help their families pick up the pieces and rebuild their lives.
Medical Malpractice
When you’re involved in a medical malpractice case, you may struggle to deal with the long-term impacts of poor care at the hands of a doctor, nurse, or medical facility.
Auto Accidents
Dog Bites
If a dog attacked you or your child, you need to call the police, call animal control, and seek immediate medical attention. Make sure to get all contact information possible from the dog owner, including homeowners’ insurance information if applicable. Dog bites are traumatic experiences for most victims, and dog owners who harbor dangerous pets, neglect them, or don’t protect others from their dog’s behavior need to accept responsibility. This is much easier to do with a competent dog bite attorney by your side.
Slip and Fall Injury
Slip and fall accidents occur when a person slips and falls on ground that they should reasonably assume is safe. The law expects premises—including places where people work, shop or conduct business, or otherwise visit—to provide a reasonable level of care to all guests. Premises that fail to provide proper notification of fall hazards like water, detritus, or holes can bear liability for injuries that occur as a result of slips and falls.
