They may have loading bays for food trucks, kitchens lighted for YouTube cooking channels, and other features to help chefs prepare their food.

Many companies offering these facilities on a time-share basis offer insurance and security features, but what happens if you are injured, either as a customer or a worker in these kitchens?

Crushed Bones or Compound Fractures in Key Largo

Published on: July 16, 2021 | By Flaxman Law Group

Fractures or broken bones are a common injury in Key Largo. Residents suffer this injury when playing sports, in falls, on the job, and in car collisions. Children can break bones when taking part in school activities or when playing sports or playing on playgrounds.

In some cases, broken bones result in simple fractures. The bone can break cleanly and not tear through the skin. In most cases, a cast can be worn for eight weeks and the bone heals on its own.
