For many Americans, the troubling state of the economy has left them with depleted bank accounts and an inability to keep up with their bills. When people cannot make timely payments, debt collectors eventually become involved. Often, the practices employed by these collectors are distressing and illegal. Americans who are faced with a seemingly never-ending stream of harassing phone calls from creditors would be wise to consult with a skilled bankruptcy attorney to ensure their rights are being protected. Often, the most effective way to stop creditor harassment when ...

Recently, some have made the argument that New Jersey is experiencing a shortage of physicians due to the price of medical malpractice liability insurance premiums. Those making the claims have contended that doctors trained in New Jersey are leaving the state for other areas with cheaper premiums. After making this conclusion, they then argue that tort reform is the answer to keeping qualified doctors in New Jersey to care for our residents. Unfortunately, these arguments are misguided and fail to take the rights of those harmed by medical malpractice into account. ...

More and more judges around the state - and around the country - are telling parents to put away the cigarettes before spending time with their children. Although exact numbers aren't available for how many custody cases involve the smoking of one parent or someone in their household, as new information arises about the dangers of secondhand smoke, it is becoming increasingly common for judges to consider smoking when making custody and visitation/parenting time decisions. Why does smoking matter? In a word: health. Judges, like everyone else, are privy to the countless ...

During the past nine months, the housing market has continued to exhibit its volatility across the country, leading to both large rises and falls in the number of foreclosure filings initiated each month. In May 2012, the U.S. saw a rise in the number of foreclosure filings. This increased action came in the wake of many banks and mortgage providers delaying foreclosure proceedings in response to heightened criticism regarding a failure to properly verify documents before initiating the proceedings. Since May 2012, the number of foreclosure filings has continued to ebb ...

Medical linen service Angelica Corporation would like to discuss the problem of rising superbugs, particularly their tendency to spread in hospitals. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (or MRSA) is perhaps the most prevalent of the superbug issues. MRSA is a bacterium that causes a whole host of infections known commonly as staph infections. If caused by MRSA, they will be extremely difficult to treat because they have developed a resistance to our usual antibiotics. Hospitals tend to have particularly higher rates of these infections. One reason is that ...

Atlanta mechanic Express Oil Change & Service Center would like to encourage you to have your car heating checked now, before the cold weather hits and you really need it. Having your air conditioning break in the hot summer months is truly horrible, but there is at least the option of rolling down your windows.

Team Pest USA wants home owners to know that learning to tell the difference between bees and wasps can not only help them avoid being stung, it can also help them know when it's time to call Atlanta pest control experts. Bees are generally rounder with hairy legs while wasps are narrower and less hairy. Wasps are also parasitic and that means it's time to call one of the many Atlanta exterminators. Bees are less likely to cause a problem because they are most interested in collecting pollen from the neighborhood plants and making it into honey. Wasps almost always ...

The iPhone and iPad have changed how people work and how software is designed by creating a mobile platform that is powerful, yet elegantly simple to learn and use. For software developers, this has created a challenge, one where the software needs to mirror the iPhone and iPad with a design that is intuitive to use, yet functional. Anything otherwise will appear dated and out of place. This challenge is magnified when the application is for something complex such as personal income taxes. However Sawhney Systems' TaxMode has managed to capture that uniquely Apple experience ...

As the death toll from Hurricane Sandy has climbed through the 100 mark, and property damage estimates top $50 billion, it's clear that it's going to be a very busy time for insurance companies and lawyers. New York personal injury lawyer Nussin Fogel expects there to be a lot of litigation in the wake of the storm as insurance companies attempt to avoid responsibility for deaths, injuries, or property damage. "For example," said Fogel, "power failures at Memorial Medical Center in New Orleans that caused 34 deaths after Hurricane Katrina led to lawsuits. ...

In the 1930s, social workers set out to change legislation that, under the guise of protecting the privacy of birth mothers would later enlsave millions of Adult Adoptees. Did they know that would happen? Probably not. But now you do. In truth, most birth mothers were young girls who were afraid and confused. Social workers, clergy and their own parents told them how it was better to give up their baby. Perhaps it was, but those birth mothers and adoptees are adults and it is time to change those laws that are doing nothing but creating a sickness in our society that ...
