This is a three-part seminar. The first part will deal with how to make sufficient notes after attending a scene and how this evidence is used in litigation. Firefighters may not appreciate how often their notes and records become part of litigation and just how important they can be to the parties involved. The second part will deal with the risk that a firefighter may become so injured that they lose capacity and become incapable of managing their property and personal care. The legal, emotional, and financial consequences of finding yourself in this position, or your loved ones supporting you in this position, is shocking to most. The third-part will deal with the accident benefits that are part of your automobile insurance policy. Firefighters are “big wage” earners and the standard coverages you may be entitled to are insufficient to support you and your family if you were to become seriously injured in a motor vehicle accident.
