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

...er: luck! As I finish my 50th year in practice with no immediate plans for retirement, I believe I have some insights into staying healthy and fit which I share, in summary, below: Most immediate for this moment in time is “get vaccinated”! At our age, my wife and I are in a vulnerable group, but it was also critical that we have our staff, of various ages, commit to being vaccinated which they did. We will soon get our Pfizer booster. I have been...

Enhancing the Human Brain 2022. 2.0

...ffice, inspired by my framed poster of The Andromeda Galaxy. As I approach retirement, not there yet!, I recall that it is not essential that one seek “profit”.

BELOW, IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER, ARE THE APPLICATIONS AND RESOURCES THAT I DISCUSSED IN MY LAST BLOG POST, WITH A SHORT DESCRIPTION OR NARRATIVE FO...

Obama, Romney, Gay Marriage, and Bullies

...tion of how many times that went on, but I remember the one that caused my retirement from bullying. He got to South Park Street, and bolted across without looking. I heard a loud “screeetch”, noticed there had not been an impact, and scurried back toward school like the rat I was. I figured I had got away with it. I remember thinking that my bully got away with it, and I had too………………almost. 17. Turns out, the boy’s Mother had called my Grandfath...

Reflections on a BIG Birthday: March 7, 2016

...speak ill of her. She was nurturing, loving, and caring. When she reached retirement age, she decided she wasn’t done, and began caring for other persons’ babies and stayed with them until they became young adults and teen-agers. After my parents, John and Betty Lee (O’Grady) Hunter, divorced, over twenty years ago, they reconciled and were very close again in my Mother’s last years.

Fundamental Precautions – Before and After Your Serious Collision

...re screwed. You are going to lose your job, your house, your savings, your retirement, and maybe that beloved spouse. Talk about “picking up the pieces”. There are hardly any pieces.

And, I made another, mental, connection. When I first visited WVWC, our tour guide was Peter Weaver, who became my fraternity brother, and later Bishop of the Northeast Region of the United Methodist Church, and the Bishop of Nancy’s cousin, who is another FB fr...

...on all issues. Such mediations also solve disputes over property and debt, retirement assets, alimony, will disputes, and right of way, boundary line, and contract disputes. When it is between sisters (whoa! Siblings can fight!), there can even be hugs, tears, and lunch together afterward. My gripe is the “school of thought” that says “lawyers get in the way of mediated settlement”. My answer. “Those lawyers have not “done their homework”, and pro...

Various Insurance Coverages – Limiting the Loss

...HIT BY AN UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED DRIVER AND LOSE YOUR HOUSE, BUSINESS, RETIREMENT, EVERYTHING. SOME UMBRELLA! This almost happened to some friends. Their agent talked them into an umbrella but failed to offer them the UM and UIM. Fortunately, WV law required them to do so, so the coverage was obtained. Don’t count on being so fortunate! Get the coverage IN WRITING. Write me via “comments” below or to hunterjb@3wlogic.net with any questions. If...
