I WAS DRIVING 2009 CHEVY TRAIL BLAZER AND WAS T-BONED BY A SPEEDING BUS ON MY SIDE, I HAD MY WIFE AND 2 GIRLS WITH ME, ALL WERE WEARING SEAT BELT AND ONE OF MY GIRLS WAS IN HER CAR SEAT ALSO. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED, ALL AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY IN THE VEHICLE. I SUFFERED MAJOR INJURIES AND I WAS OUT FROM MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. 3 MONTHS LATER I HAD AN OPEN BRAIN SURGERY AND STILL UNDER DOCTORS' CARE. THE ACCIDENT TOOK PLACE IN JORDAN, I WAS CHARGED WITH THE ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE REPORT BY THE POLICE WAS BASED ON WHO YOU KNOW!!!!!! MY WIFE AND 2 GIRLS ARE DOING FINE EXCEPT FOR THE PSYCHOLOGICAL AFFECTS FROM THAT MOMENT. THIS HAS CHANGED MY LIFE COMPLETELY. I TRIED TO CONTACT COUPLE OF LAWYERS IN THE STATES BECAUSE I AM DEPLOYED IN KUWAIT BUT NOT HAVING ANY LUCK OF FINDING ANY ONE INTERESTED IN THE CASE BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION OF THE ACCIDENT. I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO FIND A LAWYER THAT IS INTERESTED IN THIS CASE. *TR
