The risks of driving on frozen lakes

Posted on Tuesday, January 26th, 2010 at 5:28 am    

When lakes freeze in the winter, many people will use the lakes for skating and ice fishing. While some worry that the ice will crack, others are sure that the ice is strong and thick enough.

For this reason, many people falsely believe that ice on lakes and ponds are strong enough to support autmobiles and other vehicles. This type of thinking, however, is what leads to some of the most devastating winter accidents. To prevent such accidents, individuals should exercise extra caution around frozen lakes and ponds. 

If you or anyone you know has been injured as a result of an ice-related accident, contact the Sheboygan personal injury lawyers of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. ®, at 800-242-2874. 

The risk of ski and snowboard equipment defects

Posted on Wednesday, January 20th, 2010 at 12:42 am    

As more snow begins to drop across Wisconsin, some individuals and families are hitting the slopes. Many of them will either rent or buy ski and snowboard equipment this winter.

While most of the equipment will not have any flaws, some will likely have defects, which could lead to serious accidents on the slopes. Defects in ski equipment like loose bindings can cause skiers to lose control and crash unexpectedly. 

Similar defects can cause snowboarders to crash, and could lead to multiple injuries on the slopes. To prevent these injuries, skiers and snowboarders should test their equipment.

What is umbrella insurance coverage?

Posted on Monday, January 11th, 2010 at 5:48 am    

Umbrella insurance is a type of liability insurance policy protection above the standard limits set on other policies. It is typically used to increase the liability limits of a number of policies by a certain amount. 

For instance, if an insurance policy holder has both auto and home insurance and gets a one million dollar umbrella, then the limits of both the auto and home insurance will be increased by one million dollars.

Can a ski resort be held liable for a ski accident?

Posted on Monday, January 4th, 2010 at 5:57 am    

Many individuals and families take winter vacations to ski resorts. On these ski vacations, however, they take on the risk of a ski accident injury.

Ski accidents occur for a variety of reasons. In most cases, skiers must take responsibility for their accidents and resulting injuries. 

However, in some cases, the ski resort may be responsible. Resorts are often required to take responsibility for any injuries due to defect ski lifts or unmarked hazards. 

If you or anyone you know has been injured in a skiing accident, contact the Sheboygan ski accident attorneys of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. ®, at 800-242-2874.
