You’re driving cautiously through a snowstorm on your way home from Green Bay, keeping a safe distance and staying under the speed limit. Suddenly, another car loses control on the icy road, slams into your vehicle, and changes your life in an instant. Wisconsin winters can be dangerous, but accidents like these happen all the time, because someone else wasn’t careful.
The team at Natasha Misra Law wants you to be as prepared as possible for any road conditions, and we’re here to fight for you if someone else wasn’t, and injured you in an accident. Let’s take a look at what winter conditions you could face, and how you can best try to stay safe out there in the snow.
Icy Roads: As temperatures drop, moisture on the roads can freeze into a slick, invisible layer of ice. Icy conditions are common across Wisconsin’s highways and residential streets, especially on bridges and overpasses.
Snowstorms and Reduced Visibility: Heavy snow can make it nearly impossible to see other vehicles, road signs, or obstacles. Rural areas like Oshkosh and Fond du Lac can be especially hazardous, with blowing snow creating whiteout conditions.
Black Ice: Black ice is a thin, transparent layer of ice that blends with the pavement, making it almost impossible to detect. It’s especially dangerous on shaded roads or during early morning hours.
Snow-Covered Roads: Packed snow can be as slippery as ice and often hides road markings, making it hard to judge where your lane ends or begins. This is a common issue in cities like Green Bay and Appleton after a heavy snowfall.
Unplowed or Poorly Maintained Roads: Snow and ice are bad enough, but when roads aren’t properly plowed or salted, the danger increases. Wisconsin’s smaller towns and rural highways often face delayed maintenance, making conditions worse.
Winter driving hazards are more than inconvenient—they’re dangerous. Snow, ice, and low visibility significantly increase the likelihood of crashes, and when another driver isn’t as cautious as you are, the consequences can be devastating. Rear-end collisions, multi-car pileups, and sliding accidents happen more often during winter, leading to serious injuries like whiplash, broken bones, and head trauma. If you’ve been hurt because someone else wasn’t careful on Wisconsin’s winter roads, you deserve justice.

Anyone can be a victim of a dog bite or attack. Even though dog owners are expected to take care of their dogs, accidents are sometimes inevitable. Nearly 4.5 million Americans suffer dog bite attacks each year. With over half a million dogs kept as pets in Wisconsin, you or someone you know could potentially fall victim to a dog bite injury in the future.
If an attack results in bodily injury, it is important to know what your legal rights are, who is responsible for your injuries, and how to take legal action. It is, therefore, in your best interest to find an experienced dog bite attorney who understands Wisconsin dog bite law.
At Natasha Misra Law, we represent clients in the larger Wisconsin area, including Milwaukee, Green Bay, Madison, Appleton, and Hales Corners. Our attorneys will confidently handle your case to help you receive fair compensation for your injuries.
Wisconsin has strict dog bite laws that hold dog owners responsible for all incidents and damages caused by the dog. Under Wisconsin Statutes section 174.02(1), the dog owner is responsible for any harm and damages caused by the dog to a person, property, or domesticated animal. The same law allows for the compensation amount to be doubled if the dog owner knew or was aware that the dog had a prior incident causing injury.
While dog owners are automatically liable for harm done by their dogs, other parties could also be held partially or fully accountable for the injuries.
You can file a compensation claim against the dog owner’s renters or homeowners insurance company.
The Wisconsin law gives you the right to seek the full amount of damages from the owner of the dog that caused harm. These damages will cover medical bills, including hospitalization, pain and suffering, emergency surgery, medications, physical therapy, lost income, and disfigurement.
Dog bite cases can be complicated and often result in serious and permanent injuries. That’s why you need an experienced lawyer to help navigate your case.
