Executing a pass of a vehicle on the left is a maneuver that requires skill and control.  Any mistakes that are made while attempting to make such a pass can immediately place several people in extreme danger, as there are mere seconds to correct such a mistake.  Unfortunately, some sort of mistake may have been made by a driver of a vehicle attempting such a maneuver on Sunday night, and the result was a San Diego car accident that seriously injured two young people.

There are certain areas in San Diego that are notorious for their tendency to play host to serious San Diego traffic accidents, and one of those areas is an intersection in Hillcrest, where people who live and work in the area feel that the intersection of University Avenue and 4^th Street is extremely dangerous.  Unfortunately, that location was once again the location of a San Diego pedestrian accident that injured a mother and her young daughter on Sunday morning.

People who drive in San Diego County tend to be aware of the fact that pedestrians are a regular sight on the local roads, and this includes roads that may not be near the actual city.  In addition, drivers need to be ready to allow safe passage for pedestrians at all times in the day.  While it’s too early to know exactly what occurred, something went drastically wrong over the weekend that led to the death of a man in a Spring Valley pedestrian accident.

When people think of San Diego hit-and-run accidents, they often envision two vehicles colliding and then one of the drivers fleeing the scene while still behind the wheel.  However, single-vehicle San Diego hit-and-run accidents can and do occur, and that appears to be what took place on Sunday night.  The passenger that was left behind after the driver fled the scene on foot suffered a traumatic brain injury.

On January 17, 2010, Aristeids Mertzanis, Kristen Ames-Mertzanis and their 14 month old child Yiannis Mertzanis were staying at a rental house in La Jolla, California. Yiannis walked across a burning hot metal grate that was in the middle of the living room, causing severe burn injuries. He sustained second and third degree burns to his feet, elbows, arms and hands when he fell on top of the hot floor heater grate. He was transported to UCSD burn center where he remained for twelve days receiving treatment and physical therapy.

Social media web sites have in some ways taken over the Internet and have invaded just about every form of communication we use in modern times.  One of those modes of communication that has tied in with social media updates is text messaging, which allows people who are members of social media sites to obtain updates even if they are not at their computer.  However, some serious legal issues have arisen with these text updates to the point where a San Diego class action lawsuit has been filed against three of the true giants of the social media world.

Morris and Associates is proud to have been selected by a national aggregation of lawyers to participate in a National Class Action against AT&T arising from AT&T's inadvertent collection of approximately $1.2 billion in state and municipal sales taxes in connection with internet charges, mostly arising from I-Phone usage plans.  The Internet Fairness Act prohibits the collection of such taxes and charges.

Morris and Associates has been approved as class counsel by the San Diego Superior Court in the case brought by Bonnie Mann and others against various McMillin entities, the developer and seller of 349 homes at Liberty Station in Point Loma, San Diego.

In the past two years, Morris and Associates has settled multiple class action lawsuits against employers such as Brinks, Inc., Kraft, KB Homes, DHL, Fidelity Information Services, Hallmark, and others, recovering millions of dollars for employees throughout California.

If you read your cell phone bill and see a line item which causes that familiar smirk to appear, chances are you've found a charge which may be unlawful, deceptive or unfair.  Over the past decade, Stephen Morris has filed actions in California and throughout the United Sates against AT&T, Sprint, Nextel and Sprint-Nextel (after they merged), as well as other providers,  participating in cases which have generated settlements valued at hundreds of millions of dollars.

In 2009, Morris and Associates represented a class of persons comprising all Nordstrom customers in California who had received, but not used prior to their expiration, "Nordstrom Notes." The action sought to reimburse all customers whose "Nordstrom Notes" had expired. The expiration dates were in less than ten-point font. California law requires all Gift Certificates which contain expiration dates to ensure that they appear in at least ten-point font.
