How a Black Box Can Help After an Accident
How can a black box from a car or truck help following an accident? More and more vehicles now contain black boxes or onboard computers.
The boxes can show speed immediately before an accident, braking activity, and even if the driver had their seatbelt on, along with other relevant information before impact. The onboard computer can be helpful in providing speed and evasive maneuvers after a wreck – which is helpful specifically in truck accidents.
It is important to preserve this evidence as soon as possible following an accident.

Just Like in the Hit Series, Cheers, at the Law Firm of Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie, Everyone Knows Your Name!
Featured in the Monday, January 30th edition of the Los Angeles Daily Journal by Shane Nelson, the firm’s owner attorney, Suzanne Leslie, shared about the extraordinary level of attention she and her team offer clients.
Suzanne said of her Orange County-based law firm, “Considering the pervasiveness of TV advertising that implies all personal injury firms are basically “mill firms,” I always knew I wanted to build a completely different kind of experience for our clients. I wanted it to be like Cheers, where whenever someone comes through our doors, they can count on everybody knowing who they are and they feel like family.”

Dog Bites and What to Do if You Are Bitten
Dog bites can be deadly, cause serious bodily injuries, and require immediate medical attention – especially for children.
The dog may not have intended to bite the victim, it may have resulted from playtime, or may have been due to dog owner neglect. Most people do not realize dog bite injuries are covered by the owner’s homeowners or renters insurance.
Our experienced attorneys have helped many clients get the support they deserve.
Regardless of the situation, if you are bitten by a dog, we suggest you:
- Call local animal control
- Determine if the dog is current on rabies vaccinations
- Learn if the dog has a history of prior bites
Excellent Outcome for Vehicle Accident Injury
At Allen Flatt Ballidis and Leslie, a personal injury law firm located in Newport Beach, CA, we were recently referred a female client who had been injured in a motor vehicle accident, and who had a long history of back issues.
Following her accident, our client contacted her physician to set up an appointment and they refused to see her since her increased back pain was due to a motor vehicle accident. Having received zero support from her own doctor who she turned to, she then contacted another physician and omitted telling them that her back injury was related to her accident. This second physician, and many others who treated our client along the way, recommended she have a very necessary back surgery. On a related note and during the last several years, our attorneys are finding these types of situations are becoming more common in the medical field, considering many physicians no longer want to “be involved” in medical legal cases.
With Summer In Full Swing Now…Swim Until Your Heart Is Delighted!
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, swimming is the fourth most popular recreational activity in the United States and for good reason. Swimming is an aerobic exercise that has been linked to tremendous health and wellness benefits and we’d like to share those with you!
Boating Operating Error
With boating season approaching, it is very important to refresh our knowledge on the importance of boat safety. The United States Coast Guard’s Recreational Boating Statistics Guide shows that 4,168 accidents occurred in 2019 which led to 613 deaths. Most of these accidents were caused by the operator or the accidents lead to events caused partly by the boat’s operator. Sadly, this means that most of these boating accidents could have been avoided.
What If an Insurance Adjuster Keeps Calling Me?
One of the most frustrating things about a car accident is having to deal with an insurance adjuster. Following a collision, you just want to rest, heal, and get back to normal. If a negligent driver caused your injuries, then you also want his insurance to be the one to pay for your bills.
Medical Liens: How an Attorney Can Help You Get Treatment
One method of paying for your medical bills after a car accident is to sign a medical lien. This is a contract between a hospital and a patient that states that the hospital will provide care for the patient’s injuries while he or she is filing a personal injury claim and will demand repayment when the claim is settled.
