Your mom decides she needs more help doing her daily tasks around the house, such as cleaning, laundry and preparing meals, so she decides to move into an assisted living facility. Although she uses a walker, she can still get around reasonably well on her own. However, as she is going to the dining room one day, accompanied by a caregiver who is not lending physical support, she trips and falls, breaking her shoulder. Surgery is required, and your mother may not be able to go back to assisted living, even after recovering. Is there a Case or No Case against the Assisted Living Facility?

Nursing Home Key Issues Amid Ongoing COVID-19 Surges
The Wisconsin Legislature has introduced a bill that will give nursing homes and other businesses immunity for negligently causing injury or the death of its patients and customers during COVID-19. No accountability. This bill does not increase patient and public safety. It will make patients and you less safe. We are PKSD are urging you to contact your state legislator and let him or her know that you oppose any bill that does not make patients and the public more safe. Thank you.

Test what you know about the law in PKSD’s latest segment of Case or No Case.
Amid the ongoing pandemic, your brother decides to rent a car so he can safely travel and join you for the holidays. When he arrives, he parks in your driveway, blocking your vehicle from being able to get out.

While going through an intersection, a car approaching from the other direction ignores a stop sign, slams into you and then flees the scene. Unfortunately, you suffer some serious injuries.
Is there a Case or No Case against either your brother’s car insurance company or the uninsured motorist portion of your own policy?
