One man is living this particular nightmare. When he was 12 years old he had inappropriate contact with his eight year old sister. He states it was never penetrative, but was more aptly described as exploratory touching. ...

There were 32 percent more unpaid overtime lawsuits filed in 2011 than in the three years prior. Legal experts deduce that the number of lawsuits has risen sharply due in part to the fact that myriad companies have slashed labor forces in an effort to cut costs. This leaves fewer workers with a higher workload than before, often at a lower wage or without being fairly compensated for extra hours put in on the job. Many ...

Although most tax preparers continue to run honest and legitimate practices, some are taking advantage of clients. Three professionals in the Philadelphia area alone were barred from ...

Most people understand the basics of child support. They know that child support payments are ordered to provide funds for the care and welfare of children. The money is generally paid with blanket instructions to the children's caregivers to use the money for the children's physical, mental, educational and religious upbringing, but some child support orders are more detailed, breaking down precisely how the money is to be spent. Some child support orders are valid for particular lengths of time, and some are open-ended. For the most part, though, Texas child support ...
