After 15 blogs over the last few months that cover some of the wildest, craziest, and totally unbelievable celebrity divorces, custody battles, and personal injury cases to ever grace the world wide web.
But we have yet to cover one of the most entertaining subsets of celebrity culture: daytime TV stars.
When we came up with the idea to cover famous children who were emancipated from their parents, none of us had any clue just how often child actors and actresses legally separate from their guardians.
Apparently it happens a lot. California’s child labor laws are unique in that they allow kids to work, but only a couple hours a day.
Being a celebrity is hard work. After a long day of playing make believe and/or sportsball with your millionaire buddies, you just want to go home and relax in your floating mansion castle.
But this is America, the land of lawsuits.
Despite our obsession with celebrity culture, there are some cases that have no place on the docket -- even if it would put us in the same room as some of our idols.
You’d think the Coen Brothers and romantic comedy would go together like celebrities and the Walmart clearance rack; neither are made for each other and the combination isn’t doing anyone any favors.
Nevertheless, Intolerable Cruelty opened in 2003 to relatively positive reviews, a healthy payout for the film’s financiers, and 15 years later our clients are still referencing it.
One of our favorite things to do with this blog is lampoon celebrities for their unrivaled affinity for opulence and luxury. But there’s one luxury they’ll never get, and it’s one you already have: workplace safety.
Seriously, Wikipedia has a gigantic page of on-set injuries which lists a whopping 62 incidents from 2010 to 2016. Does your office average more than 10 injuries per year? We didn’t think so.
We’ve been lawyering in Western Washington since Ryan Gosling was a part of the Mickey Mouse Club.
During those 27 years, we’ve been lucky to work cases that involve two parents reconciling their differences and modifying an existing custody agreement to allow for more parental equality.
It’s time for our idols to come down from the pedestals we built for them.
Because when they don’t, nicknames like “Queen Bey” take on entirely new meanings, and that never ends well.
As such, it is clearly our sacred duty to grease up those pedestals and pass out the popcorn.
Few people throughout history have gotten to include “The” before their name. The Queen of England was bequeathed her title, the King of Pop earned his, and the The Donald got his from his first divorce.
As much as we’d love to believe it originated from an order barked into his desktop intercom, it's actually a “term of endearment” from Trump’s first (of three) wives.
It doesn’t matter that Los Angeles holds the Guinness World Record for largest Prius traffic jam of all time; showboating celebrities on expensive motorcycles still manage to crash frequently enough for us to make a ‘Best Of’ list.
How can we sleep at night making light of accidents and injuries, you ask? By only including the most ludicrous, inexperienced celebrities to ever sit astride two wheels and a leather saddle.
It’s been a couple months since our last update on Hollywood’s premiere power couple, but the curious case of the celebrity multimillionaires with six children from four continents continues to be the most chaotic celebrity divorce since, well...Brad and Angelina’s previous breakups.
