If the other driver lies about how a car accident happened, you can challenge their story with evidence. This is especially important in Maryland, where being partly responsible for a crash can prevent you from recovering compensation.

If you are dealing with a disputed accident claim in 2026, an Anne Arundel County personal injury lawyer can help. Attorney Jason Kisner has more than 10 years of experience and previously worked for large insurance companies. He understands how insurers investigate and dispute accident claims.

How Does Maryland's Contributory Negligence Rule Affect a Car Accident Claim?

Maryland follows a rule called contributory negligence. If your own negligence contributed to the accident, even by a small amount, you may be unable to recover compensation.

Liability for a nursing home fall depends on whether the fall was preventable and who failed to prevent it. Most often, that is the facility itself, but other people may also be responsible. Families rarely have the information needed to sort this out on their own, because the information that they need belongs to the facility, which doesn’t want to give it up.

If your parent or grandparent was hurt in a nursing home in 2026, a Prince George's County nursing home neglect lawyer can help you get the information you need to find out who was responsible. At Kisner Law, our firm is available 24 hours a day, and we will come to you, including overnight, if that is what your family needs.

Who Can Be Held Responsible for a Nursing Home Resident’s Fall?

The nursing home may be responsible for a resident’s fall if staff knew or should have known that the resident faced a fall risk. The facility may be liable if staff then failed to take reasonable steps to prevent the fall. That can include failing to follow a care plan, provide required supervision, or use safety equipment.

Cerebral palsy can sometimes be linked to medical malpractice. This may happen when a doctor, nurse, or other medical provider fails to give proper care and that mistake causes brain damage that leads to cerebral palsy. Problems such as a lack of oxygen or a delayed delivery may be part of a malpractice case, but they do not prove malpractice by themselves.

Not every case of cerebral palsy comes from malpractice. Some cases are linked to genetics, infections, premature birth, or other health problems that are not caused by medical care.

If you are trying to understand what happened during your child's birth in 2026, our Prince George's County birth injury lawyer is available 24/7, in person or remotely. He’s known for being a warm, caring advocate for families going through tough situations.

Doctors are responsible for the care of their patients, including giving them accurate diagnoses. A wrong diagnosis can have a profound impact on someone’s health. When a doctor’s negligence results in injury, a medical malpractice claim may be necessary.

Not every misdiagnosis is considered malpractice in 2026. Whether your case qualifies depends on whether your doctor was acting negligently or simply made a mistake. If you believe you’ve experienced malpractice in the form of a wrong diagnosis, our Crofton, MD medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand whether you have a case.

When Does a Misdiagnosis Count as Medical Malpractice in Maryland?

A misdiagnosis can be considered malpractice when a doctor fails to meet the accepted standard of care for their area of expertise, and the patient is injured as a result. The "standard of care" is what a reasonably competent doctor with similar training would have done in the same situation. To have a valid malpractice claim, you generally have to prove four things:

If you were injured at work because of someone outside your company, you may be entitled to more damages than what workers’ compensation offers. Workers' comp covers your medical bills and a part of lost wages. It does not address pain and suffering, full lost earning capacity, or other damages. In a work accident involving a third party, these may be addressed by an outside personal injury claim.

If you've been hurt at work in 2026, a Bowie, MD personal injury attorney can help you pursue every avenue of compensation you're entitled to.

What Is a Third-Party Work Accident Claim?

Workers' compensation, which is required by almost all employers in Maryland, is a no-fault system. You don't need to prove your employer did anything wrong to collect benefits. In exchange, workers' comp is generally your only remedy against your employer. You typically cannot sue your employer directly for negligence leading to an injury.
