Lakeridge is a small town in Douglas County Nevada. Its population count during the last census was 371 people. It is located on the eastern shore of Lake Tahoe, and the main route of transportation is Route 50. It is most well known for its resorts and golf courses, which are big tourist attractions.
Because of the proximity to Lake Tahoe, many individuals in Lakeridge participate in water sports, such as boating, water skiing, and jet skiing. While the majority of boaters and other water sport participators take the appropriate safety precautions to ensure accidents do not happen, water sports are dangerous and severe injuries or even death can occur if something goes wrong.
Some of the factors that can contribute to a water sport or boating accident include:
Boat and watercraft accident injuries can range from minor to severe depending on the type of accident. A minor accident would be one where someone fell on a boat or watercraft deck because it was slippery or because other equipment was in the way. A severe injury could result from a boat capsizing or two watercraft crashing into each other. It is also important to remember that there is a risk of death, especially from drowning.
If you, or a loved one, have been involved in a boating or watercraft accident, you may be wondering whether you can sue the negligent party in order to obtain compensation for your injuries. While each case is fact-specific and must be evaluated by a competent, experienced boating accident attorney, most likely you will be able to sue the negligent party for the injuries you sustained or for the death of a loved one due to a watercraft or boating accident.
A boating or watercraft accident attorney will be best able to advise you on the merits of your case and advise you on what you may be entitled to as damages from the negligent or reckless third party.

Elder abuse is becoming a growing concern as a large portion of the population continues to age. As of the 2010 US Census, nearly 13% of the total American population was 65 years of age or older. It’s estimated that as of the year 2050, one-fifth of the American population will be in this category.
Another key issue is that fewer and fewer aging parents are residing with their children and are instead required to be placed in a home for the aged or a nursing home. This may be due to space issues, medical requirements, or other pressing problems that prevent ageing loved one from being able to take up occupancy with his or her family.
For those with loved ones living in an elder care facility, however, it is of the utmost importance that they educate themselves on the signs of elder abuse, with one of these signs being a change in behavior.
