On Thursday, June 7, around 6:30 am a car crash occurred between three cars on Route 42 in Gloucester Township. The three-car pileup involved a Volkswagen which rear-ended a Hummer while a Honda Pilot crashed into the two vehicles. This caused one vehicle to catch fire and spread to the other two vehicles. The flames were extremely bad and completely destroyed all three cars which had to be hauled away after the fire was extinguished. There were no reported injuries but the accident did cause a traffic backup for miles.
On Tuesday, June June 12, a driver lost control of their car while driving along Croton Road around 4:30 pm. The driver ended up plunging into a pond at Martin’s Dam and needed to be rescued. Thankfully, the driver was not injured but there has been no word as to whether or not they will face charges regarding the accident.
Just before 7 am on June 13, a car crash occurred between a Ford Explorer and a Ford pickup truck on North Black Horse Pike in Runnemede, New Jersey. The force of the crash caused the Ford pickup truck to go flying into a massage parlor. The driver of the vehicle sustained non-life threatening injuries and was taken to the hospital for treatment. There were traffic delays at the site while the scene was cleared but there were no other reported injuries.
On Wednesday night around 10 pm, a teen was driving a pickup truck south on Madison Avenue in Bethlehem. The truck crashed into a minivan injuring a dozen people. The injured people were all transported to local hospitals for treatment and the crash is currently being investigated.
“I have been working since I was 14. I have probably held at least two dozen different jobs and I’ve seen people injured and hurt. One of the reasons I got involved with disability law is that I have a very good family friend who has been disabled his entire life, and I’ve seen how he’s struggled in order to keep working and try to work. When I was presented with the opportunity to get involved with what’s called “disability law,” I was really thrilled to be able to not only practice being an attorney, but helping other people who really need to know things about what their choices are, what they can do, and what their future may hold.
I am originally from Maple Glen, PA and is a life-long Eagles fan.
I have focused on helping individuals with their workers’ compensation, social security disability and long-term disability claims, as well as obtaining financial security for individuals who have had accidents.
As part of helping workers’ and their families, I have also been active in teaching continuing legal education courses to other attorneys, provide free seminars and webinars to the public on how to protect their rights, and I am active in various organizations such as the National Organization of Social Security Claims Representatives, the Injured Workers’ Bar Association and the Workers’ Injury Law & Advocacy Group.”
