Cats are natural born lawyers

[caption id="attachment_279" align="alignright" width="150"] Cat Lawyer by Bixentro[/caption] Growing up as a child, I was a dog person. I had a dog at a young age and my dog, like most dogs, wore his emotions on his sleeve.  He would go crazy and wag his tail feverishly when I came home from school and was never one to shy away from affection. As an adult, my wife and I decided to get two baby kittens to start our family, so to speak.

Don’t Ignore a Seatbelt Ticket

Legal Services
Most everyone knows the slogan "click it or ticket." Getting a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt may seem like a minor infraction but could in fact come back to haunt you down the road, no pun intended.

These infractions carry points as well as fines. Now here is where ignoring a seat belt ticket can come back to bite you. Let's say one is ticketed for not wearing their seatbelt…

What to DO, when you want to SUE. (Part 2)

Blog, Legal Services
Once all parties are served with the appropriate papers and everyone is at the courthouse its now time for litigation. Litigation is the process of carrying on a lawsuit.

If they have not, the judge will give them the opportunity to go meet privately within the courthouse to discuss the matter further in an attempt to reach an amicable resolution. If the parties can reach an agreed upon settlement, they will go before the judge and put the agreed upon settlement on the record. From here, the parties would be bound to carry out said agreement. If an agreement can’t be reached, the litigants will proceed to trial.…

[caption id="attachment_5500" align="alignleft" width="200"] What to do before filing a law suit[/caption] THINGS TO THINK ABOUT WHEN DEBATING A LAWSUIT IN UPSTATE NY Often people will enter into an agreement or business transaction and things just don’t work out. In the end, one or both parties may feel entitled to some sort of retribution, which usually comes down to money. When you feel a person, entity or business owes you money, the first place to consider filing a cause of action is in Small Claims Court. A lot of people may have heard of Small Claims Court and more than likely have seen it play out to some degree on TV (Judge Judy, People’s Court, etc.) but what exactly is Small Claims Court?

The first is cooperation. More often than not, individuals who are pulled over and asked if they have been drinking are not so quick to be honest with the police.
