Maritime work is precarious, and those who labor aboard ships, barges and offshore drilling rigs rely on their employers to provide safe workplaces in the face of the obvious risks inherent in working on the powerful ocean with a variety of dangerous, heavy machinery and equipment. After World War I, the government wanted to modernize and enhance the U.S. shipping and maritime industries. As part of that effort, Congress enacted the Jones Act in 1920 to provide a federal legal remedy for the injury or death of a seaman in the course of his or her employment. Some of ...

Every year, lawmakers seem to find new ways to ratchet up the punishment for drunk drivers. But it's not just jail time and fines anymore; innovative technological solutions are increasingly being tapped to address drunk driving concerns.

In addition, to keep the engine running, the driver must periodically breathe into the ignition interlock while ...

Ask a patient who has suffered a severe injury or prolonged illness due to a medical professional's errors, and they will likely tell you that having civil remedies to pursue damages helped them keep faith in justice during a tough time. Ask many American politicians, and they will try to persuade you that medical malpractice lawsuits are a major contributor to health care costs. Economic studies have shown the opposite, including a recent study from the Journal of Empirical Legal Studies. The authors of "Will Tort Reform Bend the Cost Curve? Evidence from Texas" ...

Like other states, South Carolina requires people convicted of sex crimes to register as sex offenders. This life-long duty is imposed for felonies ranging from sexual assault and rape to child pornography possession and indecent exposure.

In addition to a life of lost privacy and a badge of shame, registration as a sex offender brings constant legal oversight and the potential for further criminal consequences should ...

Pennsylvania's sex offender registration law, commonly known as Megan's Law, has recently been amended to bring it in line with federal law. The new law went into effect when Gov. Tom Corbett signed the updated law on Dec. 20 of last year.

Out-of-State Sex Offenders Now Being Watched Megan's Law was amended to close a sex offender registration loophole for out-of-state offenders. Under the old law, legislators failed ...

Most everyone who gets married does not intend for that relationship to dissolve in the future. Unfortunately, divorce affects over half of married couples.

Florida still has over one million distressed sales just waiting to come on the market. The state's foreclosure ...

Many people learn as children that the proper thing to do when they injure another person is to apologize. When a doctor injures a patient, conventional wisdom has long held that the doctor should do just the opposite, since apologizing may be seen as admitting liability in a medical malpractice lawsuit.

In spite of all the strides that neuroscience and psychology have made we are still far from understanding the true nature of emotional intelligence.
