    In some parts of the country, there’s an old joke that they have two seasons: winter and construction. The Florida version of that adage is that our seasons are tourist and construction, yet the argument can be made that our generally pleasant weather means there is no real construction off-season.

  • When Personal Injury is on the Bill

    America loves to be entertained. One study found that the average household spends almost $2,500 a month on entertainment, with a large percentage going just to fees and admissions. Sporting events, concerts, theatre events, expos – just some of the many activities going on around town at any given time.
