The Trump presidency can be likened to a four-year car crash, and it will probably take just as many years to recover. Since Joe Biden won this year’s elections, it is time to heal from the multiple collisions.
Speaking of car crashes, today we discuss who can be sued in a car accident case.
As you know, 2020 has been quite eventful. And now that the year is almost over, we're feeling a bit nostalgic. We'd like to reflect on the good ol' days when news of a celebrity divorce around Thanksgiving was cause for alarm.
We’ve been practicing family law in the Evergreen State longer than most celebrities have been married, so we know that separations during Thanksgiving aren’t that unusual.
Few jobs are as fulfilling as being a restaurant reviewer. You dine at a restaurant and get paid to have an opinion about your experience. It’s low-risk and high-prestige — it’s every gourmand’s dream job.
But as with other dream jobs — such as being a personal injury attorney like us — there are also challenges to being a food critic.
First of all, you should call a personal injury lawyer. But today, we look at solving this legal puzzle through an episode of the TV show, The Good Wife.
Like most legal dramas, The Good Wife is a fantastical take on how the legal system works. Unlike most other shows, it strives for realism.
Accurate portrayals of lawyers and the practice of law in movies are rare. And that’s why we love to watch them. If most films’ portrayals of the legal practice were so on point, it would just be like watching a day at the office.
Nevertheless, there are also many objectionable portrayals on film.
If there were only peace, love, and harmony in every marriage, there would be no such thing as divorce. Alas, couples may go their separate ways for wildly different reasons. No other category of individuals is as aware of this fact as family law attorneys.
It is often said that in a divorce, timing is everything. The coronavirus pandemic, however, threw a wrench into even the most well-timed plans. Divorcing one’s spouse while there’s a raging pandemic may not seem particularly convenient, but for some couples, it’s the perfect time to split.
Used as a pejorative, the name Karen has come to be associated with white women showing problematic behavior, such as requesting to speak to the manager for no good reason. That is the true essence of being a Karen: to exhibit a keen sense of entitlement in everyday situations.
In life, only two things are certain: death and taxes. Or so Benjamin Franklin claimed.
If you’re a parent paying child support in the state of Washington, there are a few other certainties in your life:
Child support payments should be made until the child turns 18 or graduates from high school, whichever occurs later.
“Objection, your honor!”
...is one of the most overused lines of dialogue uttered by TV and movie lawyers. In all the years we’ve handled family law and personal injury cases in Washington state, not once have we said those three words. At least, never in one sentence and never as dramatically as would the likes of Tom Cruise or Jim Carrey.
