Dividing up the equity in their house used to be a fairly straightforward activity for many couples in a divorce. The house was often their major asset, and the question typically was two-fold: Which spouse gets the house, and how much property does the other spouse in exchange for giving up his or her interest in such a valuable asset. The slide in the real estate market in recent years has reshaped that old scenario considerably. In many cases today, the house is viewed not as an asset, but as a liability. In this new environment, property division issues have become ...

Many people look at the foreclosure crisis in one of two ways: Distressed homeowners, unable to make their mortgage payments and facing foreclosure, should now face the reality of having made a poor borrowing decision. But prior to the crisis, mortgage lenders were all-too-happy to make subprime loans, and banks packaged these loans into investments that were bought and sold with little regard to the risk of default. Whether you agree or not, one thing is clear: the banks and mortgage companies continue to push home foreclosures. And many are breaking the law in ...

After receiving a particularly hard blow to the head, Edwards was rushed to the hospital. His injury resulted in a subdural hematoma, or ...
