Why Referring Attorneys Choose Langdon & Emison

A Tampa, Fla., couple was seriously injured in an auto accident while riding in a St. Louis taxivan. The taxi driver started driving erratically and in the wrong direction through downtown St. Louis. During an attempt to make a left turn without yielding, the driver kept fumbling with a GPS device and collided with an oncoming car. The taxivan was then rear-ended by another driver. Seatbelts were not available to the passengers in the taxi, and the husband and wife suffered life-altering injuries.
