Murray & Guari Trial Attorneys Support National Child Passenger Safety Week 2012

West Palm Beach, FL – Murray & Guari Trial Attorneys, a personal injury, pedestrian accident and product liability firm in West Palm Beach, is proud to support National Child Passenger Safety Week – September 16-22. Parents and caregivers are urged to verify that their child safety seats are properly installed and correctly used.

Did you know that 7 out of 10 parents incorrectly install their child safety seats?

According to the National Transportation Safety Board (http://www.ntsb.gov), each year approximately 1,800 children ages 14 and under are killed as occupants in motor vehicles, and more than 280,000 are injured. Although 96 percent of parents who use child safety seats, booster seats and safety belts to protect their children think they are doing it correctly, check-ups continually show that 4 out of 5 unintentionally make mistakes that could result in their child being injured or killed in a crash.

Making A Difference

Murray & Guari Trial Attorneys give presentations that include a lecture and a brief video detailing safety seat installation. They also bring examples of commonly used safety seats and show how to properly install and use the child seats. Information is provided to attendees on where they can have their child safety seats inspected.

As an auto accident law firm, the attorneys at Murray & Guari see a number of injuries that could have been prevented had a safety seat been installed correctly. The presentation is free to the public and schools. To attend one of the presentations or if you or your organization is interested in having this child seat safety discussion presented to your audience, please contact Pam Henney at (561) 366-9099 or email phenney@murrayguari.com.
