= NOTE: I do not provide Legal Advice below. I'm just a guy who happens to be a lawyer expressing his opinion (based on lots of experience, mind you). If you want Legal Advice, talk to an attorney you trust. =
I posted a little comment at D Kos University, and have been e-corresponding with a friend about general legal matters, and now feel compelled to offer up my 2 cents on a couple of matters: Wills and (pardon the non sequitur) Employment Discrimination Law. These things, for the individual/family and for the small/medium-sized business, are too often overlooked or given short-shrift, until it's too late.
A little background. I've practiced law for 19 years. I've actually been a member of the Alabama Bar for almost 20 years, but my first year as a freshly-minted attorney was spent teaching English in a Middle School in rural Japan. You know, the way lawyers do.
