SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE PRACTICE TIPS FOR ARIZONA ATTORNEYS
I. Introduction:
Our clients invariably ask how much spousal maintenance will I receive, and for how long? After a lengthy discussion of the factors set forth by A.R.S.

2011-02-20
In a divorce or legal separation, spousal maintenance may be ordered by the court to provide important financial support for one party or the other.

Before Acquiring A Business, Make Sure You Are Prepared And Protected
2011-02-20
A business purchase or acquisition may be the most significant transaction of your life. Putting a deal together is a lot like a jigsaw puzzle: to get to the point where you sign on the dotted line numerous pieces all have to fit together just right. Without proper alignment, an otherwise successful transaction can go south in a hurry. The efforts you make prior to closing will have a proportional impact on the success of the transaction: hastily thrown-together acquisitions have a much greater chance of ultimate failure.

Florida Bill Would Affect All Property Insurance Claims, Including Less Sinkhole Coverage
2011-02-20
The latest bill on the table of the Florida legislature focuses on property insurance.
According to legislators supporting the bill, SB 408 is aimed at creating more competitive pricing in the private insurance marketplace, making homeowners' insurance policies more affordable. Supporters say that premiums would be lowered because insurers would be able to lower their costs and pass on those savings to their policyholders.
But at the same time, if passed, the bill would reduce regulatory oversight on insurance companies, and actually end up harming many policyholders. ...
Injured on the Job? Protect Your Interests With These Simple Steps
2011-02-20
When workers are injured on the job, the workers' compensation system is designed to ensure that they are not forced to deal with these injuries alone. Workers' comp provides critical benefits, such as payment for medical care and wage replacement for time away from work.
To ensure access to these benefits, though, it is important for workers to follow certain procedures. Workers' compensation is a highly regulated area and the failure to follow the required processes may limit access to these benefits.
Any time you are seriously injured, the first priority must ...
Plan Ahead to Minimize Your Estate Tax Burden in New York
2011-02-20
To the surprise of many, the end of 2010 came with another temporary approach to the ongoing issue of federal estate taxes. Under the compromise legislation passed at the end of last year, estates less than $5 million are exempt from federal estate taxes, while any amount in excess of $5 million is subject to a 35 percent tax.
However, with the all of the media attention devoted to federal estate taxes, it is easy to forget that state estate taxes are far more important for many families. New York imposes an estate tax on any estate over $1 million. Many people who will ...
Government Study Finds Lack of Progress in Preventing Medical Errors
2011-02-20
Hospital errors and other forms of medical malpractice that cause serious injuries and wrongful deaths remain disturbingly frequent. The steady drum-beat from some political quarters about the supposed need for "tort reform" does not change this reality. It only seeks to obscure it.
A recent government study estimated that 15,000 Medicare patients die every month from care they were given in hospitals. Over the course of a full year, that is an astonishing 18,000 deaths -- a cascade of calamities, in a place designed to provide comfort and care.

2011-02-20
Cruise Amour, the online agency, has unveiled its network of local cruise advisors.
Keen not to limit their exposure to only on-line channels, Cruise Amour made the decision in November 2010 to develop a network of local cruise advisors, each equipped to reach out to customers who are perhaps less comfortable booking on-line.
Despite tough economic times and the Christmas disruption, Cruise Amour has already recruited and trained four franchisees, with another three due to launch by the end of the month.
When asked if it had been difficult to recruit franchisees ...
