Common Sense, Political Correctness, and “Literacy”.

...the news advertise laxatives, pain relievers, artificial knee joints, and Viagra!? They are in a world unto themselves, in an educational system controlled by stagnation and mediocrity. I will get back to some topics on injury claims, family law, deeds, wills and contracts, and lawsuits, soon, but for today I just wanted to complain a bit about the direction our confused society is taking. Thanks for taking the time to consider it....

COMPETENCE

...he information I need, summarize it, and have it readily at hand. Since my personal form of dyslexia makes it almost impossible for me to find the paper I need when I need it, they’re all spread out in front of me. Since I hate detail, I spent three hours with my client putting together a very particularized “equitable distribution spreadsheet” of every asset and debt. It is not fun, but I do it religiously. I bring that spreadsheet in my computer...

Lessons From Hatfields & McCoy – Perpetuating the Fight

...ip. Dr. Laura speaks sternly to the woman who has never developed a “whole personality”, but depended on “her man” to define her.

I would have much to learn, of course, about his country of origin, the process that got him radicalized, and the things he was taught that caused him to hate us so much. 10. I would give him NO propaganda. The whole approach would be to give him the soundest, sanest, most rational information available, about the natural history of our pl...

Mediation Conundrums, Domestic Violence, and Sociopaths

...Much was covered today on the difficulties of mediating with parties with personality disorders, addictions, and sociopathic tendencies. These 10% of the total take up as much time as the remaining 90%, and most of the fatalities come from that group. Mediation with even one party with such problems is almost impossible. This is where the wisdom of the Court at trial is important, but if a person is going to have difficulty representing themselve...

Social Media Warnings, Family Law Parties

...that they not play “Hatfields and McCoys”. 9. But, your “social network”, personal and digital, can help pull you through this difficult time. I say, just act responsibly. 10. My best advice? Put your children first, do not involve them in the fight, no drugs, moderate your alcohol use, discourage friends and family from acting up, and be very, very, very careful of what you send, receive, browse, print, post, and view ON THAT PHONE AND COMPUTER!...
