By kristan

Phoenix, AZ – Lawyer Matchmaker (http://www.lawyerlocator.biz ), a personal injury web site helps you find qualified and quality attorneys, has announced a new website that makes this process easier than having to contact different attorneys – and most importantly it’s free.

 

Your search for locating the right personal injury attorney of essential need can be overwhelming.    Many different questions need to be answered in a short period of time and they include:

 

  • Should you choose the one that you see on TV, hear on the radio, and view their billboards at every turn?
  • How do you know if they’re just skilled marketers and haven’t looked at a case within the past ten years?
  • Are they ethical?
  • Will they keep you informed?
  • Do they make decisions that are truly not in your best interest and end up costing you thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars because they do not have the resources or capacity to go the distance on your behalf?
  • Maybe your family member provided you with a referral.  Are you certain that they know how to assess the skill and capacity of an attorney?
  • Even if the attorney handled their case well, how do you know if the details of your case are different or more complex than theirs and it is beyond their attorney’s skill set?

 

Unfortunately, once you choose your attorney, if you learn later that they are not what you hoped, changing direction can be difficult. Mistakes can be made by an attorney that are irreversible. That’s why finding a quality personal injury attorney upfront is key.

Audi Moves Forward with Progressive Design Strategies

By kristan

Audi is taking its design in a new direction, and at Audi North Scottsdale, we are excited to share this progressive concept with our customers.  From a greater differentiation between model series, to more technical design aspects in future model generations, to a more cohesive connection between exterior and interior design, this new strategic orientation will inspire a whole new approach to Audi design and engineering.  Take a sneak peek with us at the design changes Audi USA has announced are in store for the brand:

Wolfgang Egger firmly believes that “good design must always express a vision.”  The Head of Audi Design senses that automotive design is ready for a change. “We need something new without breaking with tradition.” Audi Design has been reorganized, and Egger and his team are redefining their focus. They are placing more emphasis on the creative process and are thus exerting a substantial influence on the design of future Audi products.

Technology integrated into design

The refined Audi design language and philosophy will focus on a strong link between technology and design. Egger’s credo: “Only when design and technology mesh perfectly does an automobile make a statement for the Audi brand.” Technology will therefore no longer be enclosed, but rather exposed. For the first time, the union of technology and design will emphasize internal technical elements so strongly that it will create a new dimension of product authenticity


Interior and exterior intertwine
Thanks to the holistic design, the interior and exterior of future model generations are more closely intertwined than ever to create a seamless unity that makes it easier to distinguish the models by their interiors as well. This additional differentiation further accentuates the unique character of each model in the cabin, which is focused on the driver.  “Our refined strategy at Audi Design emphasizes clarity and a focus on the essentials,” says Egger in summary.

Introducing studio concept
The Concept Design Studio in Munich is showing the way and reflects the freedom in the work process of the creative talents. The studio philosophy that has proved so effective at the Munich studio will now also make its way to the design studios in Ingolstadt. Thanks to Wolfgang Egger’s studio concept, the three segments of automotive design – Interior, Exterior and Color&Trim – will work more closely together at Audi headquarters in the future in order to design a car from a holistic perspective, particularly during the initial creative phase
All of these factors will result in greater differentiation between the A, R and Q model lines in the future. Looking ahead, the design team is initially concentrating on the Q family which embodies a robust, distinctive appearance.  Arizona Audi fans can look forward to new updates for their favorite models in the months and years to come.

 

To learn more about Audi’s distinctive design process or view the inventory of 2013 vehicles, visit Audi North Scottsdale in Arizona.

BMW Seeks to Continue Sales Growth with New Manufacturing Plant in South America

By kristan

BMW sets sights on global expansion as plans move forward for a new Brazilian manufacturing plant.

 

BMW is the world’s largest luxury automobile manufacturer.  However, as Volkswagen AG continues to press the market, BMW is looking to strengthen its standing by expanding its global manufacturing presence.  To accomplish this, BMW plans to spend $261 million to build its newest state-of-the-art factory in Brazil.

 

The new factory will be located in Santa Catarina, Brazil and is expected to be up and running by 2014.  According to BMW’s head of sales and marketing, productions for the facility are expected to reach as many as 30,000 vehicles per year.

 

Boosting Global Production

In a media appearance, BMW’s head of sales and marketing, Ian Robertson announced, “The investment plan has been aligned with new automobile industry incentives and is the result of difficult work with Brazilian authorities during the last six months.”   He also acknowledged that the company has plans to increase vehicle production as demand grows.

 

The original announcement to build the facility was made by BMW back in March of 2011, and the company is optimistic about the future of the factory as they work with the Brazilian government to finalize the project.

 

The factory is a response to the growing heat placed on the brand by the Volkswagen/Audi brand.  Volkswagen recently announced plans for a new production facility in Mexico. BMW plans to expand into emerging markets to help boost sales by 20 percent in the next four years and counter VW’s efforts.

 

Brazil Welcomes Automakers

The decision to build a Brazilian plant was also partly influenced by tax changes on imported vehicles and an increasing demand for luxury vehicles in South America.  Brazil’s market is stronger than ever as it ramps up to host the World Cup in 2014 and the Summer Olympics in 2016.

 

To boost the struggling automotive market in Brazil, the Brazilian President announced tax breaks to incentivize carmakers including BMW.  Automakers will be held to higher standards for environmental and safety standards in order to qualify for the additional tax breaks.

 

Sales Continue to Rise for BMW

As BMW continues to invest in the global marketplace, the company has seen positive results.  In the first three quarters of 2012, BMW’s sales rose to 1.11 million vehicles – over halfway to its 2 million-unit sales goal.

 

Current sales in the United States have risen in the past few months.  The BMW Group recently announced that October sales reached over 32,300 vehicles, representing an 18% increase over last October.  Year to date, the company is up 8.4%.

 

“We have continued to see strong sales,” states BMW North Scottsdale General Manager, Robert Dombrowski.  “Thanks to the progressive updates featured in the latest model lines like the 3 Series, BMW drivers continue to seek out the Ultimate Driving Machine and are pleased with their experience.”

 

The best-selling vehicles in the U.S. continue to be the re-designed BMW 3 Series and the BMW 6 Series.  To learn more about the latest vehicles, technology, and news from BMW, customers can stop by BMW North Scottsdale to speak with a sales representative or schedule a test drive.

Why Finding A Skilled Personal Injury Attorney Makes All The Difference

By kristan

Stephanie had been in a devastating car accident, which would eventually require a back fusion and leg surgery. She thought she found a good attorney after learning that her brother had a friend that was a personal injury attorney.  She had never been in a lawsuit, but now that she lost her job and couldn’t find work due to her injury, getting a good outcome on her case would help create a stable home for herself and her two young children. Stephanie’s brother told her that she could trust his friend.  Since trust meant everything to her, she hired her brother’s personal injury attorney friend who, after meeting him, ended up being a really nice guy.  The personal injury lawsuit seemed to take forever, and after two years of waiting, she finally got an offer from the at fault parties insurance company for $617,000.  She wasn’t sure what to do so she consulted with her personal injury attorney who advised her to go to trial since he felt that her case was worth double that amount.  Stephanie took his advice and after a five-day trial the jury’s verdict was just under $100,000. That wasn’t even enough to pay for her medical bills.  Her debts had grown to large amounts since she hadn’t worked in over two years. After her attorney negotiated her medical bills down she only walked away with $1,479. Stephanie and her two kids moved in with her mother and she had no choice but to file for bankruptcy.  Where did Stephanie go wrong? Could she have done anything different? Let’s evaluate each question separately.

Where did Stephanie go wrong?

While Stephanie trusted and liked this person, which is clearly important, she really had no knowledge or information of her personal injury attorney’s ability.  Although her brother’s friend was trustworthy, he wasn’t a sophisticated strategic thinker and had limited trial experience.

 

Could she have done anything different?

Stephanie should have done her homework to find out what her personal injury attorney’s capacity and skill level were before she hired him. How could she have done this?

  • View public court records online to find out what her personal injury attorney’s track record was.  Find out how many times in the past five years he had been to trial. Find out what types of verdicts did he obtained.  If he rarely went to trial, she should have asked him why?

 

  • She could have located a successful businessperson (friend or otherwise) to help her sort out her attorney or make a recommendation.  Her brother isn’t a businessperson and has no real experience or aptitude for evaluating attorneys.  Successful business people are usually successful because they have a special aptitude for sorting people out and projecting their behavior forward.  They usually have extensive experience working with attorneys and know what attributes to look for.

 

  • Use a Lawyer Referral Service.  Their services range from self service which allow you to use their database online and you never speak with a live person to full service which include speaking with a specialist, who will learn the nuances of your case and introduce you to a qualified personal injury attorney after researching and carefully considering your matter. One, free of charge, full service company that we recommend is Lawyer Locator. They have expert resources and have evaluated thousands of lawsuits, which makes them savvy at sorting out personal injury attorneys. If you’d like to contact them, they’re located at 8711 E.

BMW fans will really appreciate the latest improvement for the BMW 3 Series sedan.  Just in time for winter driving, the new 2013 BMW 328i xDrive and 335i xDrive are available and built to handle all kinds of wet weather and slippery surfaces. 

 

The 2013 BMW 3 Series is powerful, stylish, and most importantly, fun to drive.  It will change the way drivers view the open road, and now with the addition of xDrive, BMW’s intelligent all-wheel drive system, it keeps drivers ready for any type of road or weather condition.  The 2013 BMW 328i xDrive and 335i xDrive are available in three distinct model lines: the Sport, the Luxury, and the Modern line, and the M Sport line to match the needs and personality of each driver. 

 

The new 2013 BMW 3 Series Modern line will catch your eye with its distinctive contemporary look.  The modern line features sophisticated styling and asserts incredible power on the road. The 8-speed transmission offers drivers more power on the road and thanks to progressive xDrive technology, it handles well no matter the road or weather conditions.

 

The 2013 BMW 3 Series Sport line also offers a uniquely thrilling driving experience.  Athletic styling is coupled with unprecedented power.  Sporty 18” five double spoke wheels add the perfect touch to the assertive personality of this updated model.  The interior features premium leather with contrasting stitching to complement the powerful exterior and interior color scheme.  The 2013 BMW 3 Series continues to provide enhanced fuel efficiency and thanks to the 50/50 weight distribution of the BMW 3 Series, the car features better overall balance which results in a more controlled driving experience.

 

For drivers who are looking for the ultimate in performance, handling, and luxury design, the 2013 BMW 3 Series 328i xDrive and 335i xDrive offer it all.  The exteriors reflect the refined character of a luxury sedan, while the interior design of the cars feature a sophisticated neutral pallet including beautiful wood grain inlays and contrasting stitching on the premium leather upholstery.  A full-color heads up display provides the driver with navigation, entertainment, and driving information while minimizing distractions.

 

Like the modern line and the sport line, the luxury line also offers an incredible 8-speed transmission and innovative keyless entry and comfort access, and the incredible power and handling of the xDrive technology.

 

The BMW 3 Series is also available in the M Sport line for drivers who want unrivaled design, luxury, power, and control.  But no matter the model line, drivers can hit the gas and the 335i xDrive races from 0-60 in just 4.8 seconds.  Best of all, the increased power doesn’t equate to more time at the pump.  In fact, thanks to BMW’s Efficient Dynamics engineering philosophy, the 2013 3 Series 335i xDrive is more fuel efficient than ever posting an estimated 33mpg on the highway.

 

To learn more about the 2013 3 Series with xDrive, Phoenix BMW enthusiasts can contact BMW North Scottsdale.
