Lawyer Tyson's Shortcast

Sometimes, it's all about finding the perfect balance between luck and skill. This is a video of Jackson scoring a soccer goal last week.

Fo...

Let me share a humorous incident that occurred during one of my jury trials 👨‍⚖️ I was in the midst of jury selection and standing confidently behind the podium, having progressed about three quarters of the way through the process.

People often ask me about my strong affinity for MRIs in my role as a personal injury attorney 👨‍💼 To me, MRIs hold immeasurable value – they are truly indispensable.

I want to discuss the key components of a negligence case 💼 And, I want to focus on two elements: breach and damages. In cases involving incidents like car crashes, there are four main elements: duty, breach, causation, and damages. For instance, in a car crash, duty refers to the responsibility to act safely while driving. Breach occurs if this duty is violated, like driving at excessive speeds....
