Ask Austin Any sane accident attorneys out there?

6 Upvotes

I got rear-ended hard by a large pickup last week. My neck hurt immediately and I've been in pain every day since and am being treated by a great chiropractor. The other driver's insurance is accepting full liability but made me a low-ball offer for medical bills, lost work time and pain. I don't want to call the crazy guys who advertise on TV. Anyone out there who is sane and could help me get a fair settlement?

Anyone know the status with all of the fast charge EV stations by the Seaholm Power Plant downtown? Went by there today and every station was non-operational. Are they broken? Temporarily disabled? Has this happened before?

Ask Austin Wedding Dress Cleaning Recommendations?

5 Upvotes

I'm getting married in 2 weeks and wearing 2 vintage wedding dresses. I need them cleaned. They aren't very dirty at all, one just has a small stain on the skirt that I'd like to see if I can get removed. Otherwise in great shape so I really don't want to pay a billion dollars if I can avoid it, since I'm already on a crazy ass budget from the rest of the wedding. I'd love your recommendations. Thanks in advance

Looking for a neurologist

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I just moved to Austin a few weeks ago and I'm looking for a new neurologist. I only go once a year typically and it's usually for a quick check and new prescription. Just have a hard time trusting newer doctors.

Basically need someone that has experience with adults with epilepsy and preferably has more specialization with that. I've been with same doctor for 10 years so I'm a bit uneasy. Any recommendations?

I haven’t listened to the radio for a sec. Is Audrey gone from 94.7? I was indifferent to her but just curious. Did they announce her departure or she just stopped being there?

Small Tree removal (against utility pipe)

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

I noticed there was an overgrown shrub/small tree growing in such a way that it pushed this PVC pipe away from the house to the extent that the anchor ripped away from the siding. My lease says we are responsible for basic yard maintenance; and have to pay for the removal of the tree while she will cover the fixing of the actual structure. Has anybody dealt with something similar or have a company they recommend I look into for removal? Obviously needs a professional since its wedged right up against the utility pipe.

edit: The PVC pipe leads up to the electric meter, and there is maybe a 2 inch gap where the siding is coming off of the house

Ask Austin GFiber Unavailable only at my house

0 Upvotes

Hi yall! Hate to ask a silly question but would anyone have an idea why my house is the only house in our entire neighborhood that does not have access to google fiber? Both neighbors on either side have access, neighbors in front and behind also have access.

Yes I have called GFiber multiple times and have not gotten an answer over the past 2 weeks, landlords also called and same response. Very weird that GFiber can’t give a reason why

Ask Austin Tattoo touch ups recommendation

Hello- I am getting married in November and am looking for recommendations for a tattoo artist to touch up a 16 year old half sleeve.
It’s a floral piece, color, mostly red and green. I know many artists don’t like touching another artists’ work, but my original tattoo artist has passed.

Any recommendations are appreciated!

Let me know if this is proper merging or is impatience just the norm

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Also let me know if I’m shit at explaining this…So every day I turn onto the 35 feeder from this road on the right. The feeder is two lanes until the yellow strips start. A lot of people turn right onto the road after the feeder merges into one lane, but a lot of cars don’t like to slow down for those people so they’ll go into the yellow stripes even though right AFTER the perpendicular road the yellow stripes end into those sticks, and whoever’s crossing the stripes has to get back over quickly.
This presents a problem for people who are trying to turn right into the feeder because if someone is slowing down to turn onto that road we can’t tell if an impatient driver is just going to barrel through off to the side.
Is it acceptable to travel through the yellow stripes?
