Software Media Express is Not SoftwareMedia.com
2012-09-29
We first learned about Software Media Express when their customers starting calling into our office (thinking we were them) and complaining about the products they purchased. They were very upset when they went to install their new software and realized it was not legitimate. I would have been furious too. The majority of these phone calls we received were on high end AutoCAD products with prices in the $3,000 to $4,000 range - not something to be taken lightly.
Our company, SoftwareMedia.com, tried over and over to contact someone at Software Media Express but never ...

Injury Reports in Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Cases
2012-09-29
Playing by the rules is undeniably important in an orderly society. When conflicts arise, a clear set of rules can help resolve the underlying problem without undue delay, in a way that is usually acceptable to both parties.

This article will examine one such rule and its application in a recent Pennsylvania workers' comp case. The case involved an employer that was allowed to terminate an employee for not reporting an injury ...

Estate Planning and the Brady Bunch?

For many years on TV, the Brady Bunch represented the idealized vision of the blended family. One topic that never arose, at least in the television episodes, was the issue of estate planning.

Many Things to Think About
