Atlanta Injury Attorney Blog

A car accident (wreck) between a tractor trailer truck and a pick-up truck occurred early this morning on the top end of the perimeter in Cobb County, which is in Metro Atlanta. It is reported that a pick-up truck rear ended a tractor trailer truck - big rig - that was on the side of the I-75 ramp leading to I-285 west. Both occupants of the pick-up truck were killed in the car accident and the tractor trailer truck - big rig - burst into flames.

The truck - big rig wreck, which happened on the I-75 ramp leading to I-285, has resulted in the I-75 ramp being closed.

With two dead, a wrongful death claim or lawsuit will probably follow. Whether the driver of the 18 wheeler big rig caused or contributed to the truck accident is unknown and with the car accident having occurred on the highway, the Georgia State Patrol is investigating the truck crash.

A slew of truck accidents around metro Atlanta last Wednesday morning made for a challenging commute for many motorists. One person is reported dead.

Gwinnett County law enforcement report that one person, in particular, was killed in a tractor trailer truck wreck on Georgia Highway 316 near Harbins Road, this according to the Georgia DOT. Assuming liability is established on the part of the at fault motorist, a wrongful death lawsuit may follow.

Well south of the Gwinnett County Truck Wreck, was yet another truck crash on I-85 near Senoia Road. In this tractor trailer truck accident, the crash occurred in the southbound lanes, resulting in several injuries. Medical helicopters later arrived at the truck accident scene to wisk away those injured to local area hospitals.

To not be undone by the previously reported tracter trailer - 18 wheeler truck wreck - big rig accident, was another truck wreck south of Atlanta on I-85 involving a tracter-trailer that became ignited and caught fire because of leaking fuel.

Finally, a tracter-trailer wreck happened in Dekalb County when an 18 wheeler overturned on a ramp leading to I-285 from I-20. According to police, there were no injuries reported and no other cars a part of the truck wreck.

UnitedHealth Group Insurance Company may be forced to pay upwards of $1.3 billion by California authorities for systematically failing to pay medical claims in a timely manner. UnitedHealth is suspected of having committed some 130,000 violations and was in fact sanctioned last year.

UnitedHealth blames their failure to promptly pay medical claims on administrative issues and on corporate acquisitions. California regulators maintain that they have received more complaints from UnitedHealth than any other health insurance provider.

Unfortunately, failing to timely pay insurance claims or denial of insurance claims altogether is extremely common and such delay of payment or denial of claims can lead to major problems, including death, as was discussed in the latest Michael Moore movie, 'Sicko".

If you or a loved one is an insured and has experienced a denial of a claim by your health insurance provider, I would invite you to visit my website, www.samlevine.com or contact my office, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law.
