HOW DOES A “GOOD LAWYER” STAY HEALTHY AND FIT FOR A LONG CAREER?

...ever took up the habit. Stay physically fit and try not to get injured. An injury to a moving or weight-bearing joint can have a rippling effect of reducing mobility, preventing the burning of calories, and interfering with movement in the rest of the body. There are things one can do, such as kneepads for yard work, the seatbelt in your car and tractor, a roll bar, plenty of rest, and time for recreation. But how does one cope with the trillion-d...

Websites, Blogs, Practice Areas, Lawyers Who Fail to Communicate

...ther job and did not call or send him a letter of regret. He has a serious injury, but his lawyer did not call him to get updates of his condition, never sent him copies of correspondence to the insurance adjuster, his doctors, or even to the police for their report. His case should already be to “pre-litigation mediation” but no one has told the poor fellow what mediation is. If you are injured and don’t hear from your lawyer at least every week...

A Claim Against Your Own Insurance Company?

Let’s look at another kind of injury, bad faith by your fire insurance company: You have a major fire. The adjustor is overburdened, distracted, or may not even care. The checks are slow in arriving, and you think your place is a total loss, but the adjustor does not. It turns out you have some “environmental issues”, and your limited rental coverage is running out while your damaged house is moldering down around you. Some lawyers will immediate...

No Lawyer? Or Just Any Lawyer?

...s herniated disk and $70,000 in medical bills! This is called a “permanent injury”; serious stuff. 5. The dump truck driver, his passenger, and the pick-up driver all agree that “the woman driver” slowed abruptly and caused the collision. Of course that is not true. The collision occurred because two cars were tailgating! But it takes some “lawyering” to establish that. 6. The woman, believing propaganda about not getting a lawyer because they fil...

Tying Together “Unbundling” of Legal Services

...yer, this one included, will always be happy to meet with you in a serious injury case. But what about the case that isn’t “contingent fee”? As my cousin’s sons who write of their days escorting rafters through Class 4-5 whitewater, I see myself as a guide through the chaos. But, what do you do if you plan to use your own kayak!

Hanging Out Your Shingle – Not for the Faint of Heart

..., Jim Fitzsimmons, or a specialty lawyer like C. Michael Bee for his brain injury expertise, or Vince King, the “Insurance Guhru of WV”. In my era it was the great Stanley Preiser, Charlie Hughes, and many others. Charlie had the index for of all WV insurance cases before Westlaw and Fastcase arrived. That stuff was critical. Vince found my clients an extra $1,200,000.00 in insurance coverage! You will see a lot of bad trial work in a rural settin...

The State of Florida v. George Zimmerman – and Our System of Justice

...eny beyond reasonable doubt that George feared that he would endure severe injury or death. George got the ball rolling, and was guilty of poor judgment at the very least. I think he intended well. I have approached guys roughing up their girlfriends at fairs and car races. I have told them I would call the police. I have called the police. Any of those guys could have come at me, but those of you who know me know I am a rather formidable physical...
