On Learning New Things: Video-casting and “Text to Voice”
When my wife and I go on a February “working vacation”, we have just a few “rules”: We select a quiet beach, St. Simons Island, Jekyll Island, Amelia Island, Savannah, Charleston, S.C.. or Jacksonville or Myrtle Beach. We are there to unwind and appreciate one another. For at least 6 hours a day, I “putter”,… View Article

Civil Litigation 101
CIVIL LITIGATION GENERALLY My trial practice is primarily “civil” in nature. What are some examples of “civil litigation”? In family law, it can be a divorce action, or, when the parents are not married, “allocation of parental rights” (aka “paternity suit”); or, an adoption, or contempt, or modification of a prior court order such as child… View Article
A Curmudgeon Family Lawyer’s View of Parenting

Why I like Snagit and Pathagoras
Recently, I posted about four “cool tools” for researchers, editors, and producers of content (which should mean most of us). I compared them to easy-to-use and maintain light battery-powered hand-tools by Kobalt and Stihl. It is a good analogy because those tools, especially Snagit, are light, easy to use, and affordable.
