A first-hand narrative of a car accident with latent medical effects, troubling statistics on nursing home negligence, the consequences of cosmetic procedures from unsafe, unsanitary salons and how one student almost quit law school after becoming a personal injury client make up our contributed content from four writers each with a story to tell.
