Few movies enjoy as much notoriety as the 1995 box office disaster Waterworld. It’s an indefensibly bad movie that somehow conned its studio into more than tripling the size of the original budget during production.
Waterworld failed in so many ways that it’s almost hard to keep track of them all.
Most lawyers, regardless of what type of cases they handle, charge either by the hour or on a monthly flat fee. But based on the family planning practices of some celebrities, you might think there was some sort of bulk service deal.
We’ve previously written about Charlie Chaplin’s family troubles in the courtroom, but even with his 11 children, his brood can’t compete with the families on this list.
The Buckingham, LaGrandeur & Williams firm has handled dozens of motor vehicle and motorcycle accident cases across the state of Washington. They’re a horrible thing to be subjected to, but if there’s one thing we’ve learned it’s that trying to find a silver lining is one of many potential coping mechanisms.
We started writing this blog based on two factors: 1) family law is a serious issue, and 2) we are not serious lawyers. Sure, everyone on our team has law degrees from fancy schools, in total we have over 70 years of combined experience practicing law in Renton, and the Buckingham, LaGrandeur & Williams library is full of purportedly important books -- but our team is about as somber as a Vegas chapel when the clock strikes midnight.
It’s been just over 100 days since The Donald became president of the United States of America. And in honor of this arbitrary milestone, we’ve created our own meaningless measurement: The number of days into a president’s term before he or she slips and falls.
Hot off our rant about the “good ‘ol days,” we’re diving into the Hollywood scandals during the Golden Age of cinema. And no, we don’t mean Trump’s 10+ acting credits during the ’90s.
We’re referring to the era when at least one film was released per year that wasn’t a sequel, prequel, franchise reboot, or comic book property.
A wildly uninformed Renton law firm once claimed actors are the worst motorcycle drivers in the country. We’re here to set the record straight: Professional athletes are worse...a lot worse.
We figured the combination of ballooning salaries, machismo, and steroids would probably mean a wider selection of ridiculous stories to cover, but boy were we wrong.
Do you remember when all anyone could talk about was, “divorce rates skyrocketing to well over 50% of all marriages?” We still hear that statistic occasionally, but it’s just not true -- or at least it hasn’t been since the ’70s and ’80s.
That’s great for families, the institution of marriage, and minivan salesmen -- but it’s not doing family lawyers any favors.
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.
