Accidents with semi trucks are dangerous, and the team at Brooks Law Group is committed to protecting Tampa drivers from this risk! Semi trucks are a huge part of Florida traffic, as we depend on them to haul goods in and out of the state. I-4, Highway 75, and Highway 95 are all congested with…

Being involved in a car accident is scary, no matter how minor. Injuries, damages, and even deaths are all potential effects of vehicle collisions. They can traumatize both drivers and passengers, even if they did not sustain any physical injury. Hundreds of accidents occur each week in Tampa. In each one, drivers face the same…

Un nuevo año es el momento en que muchos de nosotros comenzamos un nuevo capítulo y establecemos nuevas metas y resoluciones para los próximos meses.

Winter in Florida? It’s time to get OUTSIDE! Cooler temperatures mean more time outdoors for adults and kids alike, and many parents of young children cherish days at the park or playground when they don’t have to worry about overheating, not bringing enough water, or their little ones being burned on the play equipment. Winter…

A new year is the time when many of us are starting a fresh chapter, and setting new goals and resolutions for the months ahead. If the holidays pulled you off the exercising bandwagon, or if you are heading into a health journey in 2023, running might be something you’ve considered. After all, running has a plethora…

Were you stationed at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina between 1953 – 1987? Did you or a family member live on base or work an on-site contracted position during that time period? The recently passed PACT Act could apply to you. Over the years since 1987, the truth about the water at Camp Lejeune has come out, and many veterans,…

Did Santa bring more than presents to your home this season? If a cold or flu made its way down the chimney (or through your front door), your holiday might have been a little less than ideal. Instead of sipping hot cocoa and enjoying your Christmas gifts, once your family and friends went home you…

I (Steve) recently spent a few days in New York City. New York is a fascinating city to say the least! It’s so interesting to witness all of the diversity; Little Italy, China town, Greenwich Village, Tribeca, Chelsea, Financial district etc. It occurred to me that New York is really a city of multiple villages each established…

Pedestrian accidents don’t always happen when crossing a street or walking along a busy road. Last week in the Tampa Bay area, a pedestrian was struck outside of a CVS in Sarasota County. The Long Boat Key victim was standing near the glass doors on the front of the store at 505 Bay Isles Parkway when a…

Over Christmas weekend, Florida experienced some unseasonably cold temperatures, and some locations even got ice! While that’s almost unheard of here in the Tampa area, it does occasionally happen, and as many driver’s experienced and will continue to experience during this cold snap, driving in freezing temperatures can be complicated. Some things to watch out for as…

While Brooks Law Group mainly handles damages related to accidental injuries, malpractice, or even food poisoning, you don’t often hear us talk about damages related to one’s business. If you are a business owner, you know that damages can take on many forms, from catastrophic loss following a weather event, to a lawsuit. However, one…

Florida central es una meca para las personas que desean alejarse del clima invernal, y podemos entender por qué Winter Haven es un punto caliente (literalmente) para los turistas. Durante la temporada navideña, es común que las carreteras en el condado de Polk y sus alrededores estén muy ocupadas con personas de fuera del estado…

Central Florida is a mecca for people wanting to get away from winter weather, and we can understand why Winter Haven is a hot spot (literally) for tourists. During the holiday season, it’s common for the roads in and around Polk County to become very busy with people from out of state who have come to soak up…
