Despite the controversy, some paralegals view the Law Society of Upper Canada's new regulation of paralegals, in effect as of May 1, as a very good thing. While paralegals working independently will need to adopt new stationary, new business cards, and even new business names, the benefits are definitely worthwhile.Ontario's decision to give lawyers the job of licensing and disciplining their lower-priced, lesser-trained competitors has been controversial, certainly among the paralegals.But, despite the $1,725 cost and time required to qualify to do the same job as before, despite the $845 annual fee to the law society and the $2,400 for new accounting software, [paralegal Gary] Spector has decided "it's a good thing.""It adds legitimacy to our profession, for what we are doing," he says.

As a US Immigration Visa Lawyer, I have come to believe this country desperately needs new US immigration reforms. I formed this belief a long time before our Congress began its immigration debates.In my work, I had come to see many faults of our current policies. Particularly, there are some injustices that "go on" in today's system.What are they?People who should stay are being deported. People who should leave USA are staying regardless of their current immigration status.All immigration policies have to be based on one principle. People who contribute to USA's economy the most should always be allowed to stay. People who create more problems by committing crimes, for instance, should be deported.It is a very simple principle that will work. By the way, when I talk about contribution to

A famous lawyer, who had been a public defender for years, dies. He finds himself standing at the back of an enormous queue outside the gates of Heaven. The queue before him is enormous. The number of people who die in a single day appalls him. He can barely see St Peter sitting up on a podium outside the gates with a large book. Every now and then St Peter glances down the queue to see how he is going. Suddenly he catches the eye of the lawyer. He looks very surprised. He jumps down from the podium and comes running along the line until slightly out of breath he arrives beside the lawyer. He embraces him. He pulls him out of the queue and motions for him to come to the front of the queue. Another person questions what is happening and another angel speaks to the person. Word is passed alo

One afternoon a wealthy lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw
two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver

have to eat grass." "Well, then, you can come with me to my house and
I'll feed you," the lawyer said.

In responding to my piece from yesterday on Colorado's just cause initiative, Professor Paul Secunda at the Workplace Prof Blog had this to say:
I don't believe that employers only fire employees usually for good reasons. I guess that is why Jon is still a management attorney and I no longer am.
Paul's comment got me thinking -- why am I a management attorney? Let me try to answer it this way.
I'm not so naive to think that businesses only fire people for good reasons. Companies fire people for lots of reasons -- good, indifferent, and unlawful. In a perfect world, discrimination, retaliation, and harassment wouldn't exist. But they do, and companies, even those with the best of intentions, run afoul of the complexities of our myriad employment laws. Every lawsuit, administrative ch

A young trial lawyer was defending a man accused of burglary, known for being witty (and the judge knows this) tried yet another one of his creative defenses. The judge, while not known for having a sense of humor, decided to here the young lawyer out.“While my client admits he did, in fact, reach his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. However his arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by just his limb.”“Well put,” the judge replied. “Using your logic, I sentence the defendant’s arm to one year’s imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he so chooses.”The defendant smiled. With his lawyer’s assistance he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.
The best approach is to ask someone. “How did you like your child custody lawyer? Did she do a good job?” There’s nothing quite like the personal touch, and if you know someone who was satisfied with their lawyer, you may be, too.

From: Italy Makes It Hard For Jailbirds to Stay in Jail Less than two years ago, Italy's prison system faced a crisis: Built to hold 43,000 inmates, it was straining to contain more than 60,000. So the government crafted an emergency plan. It swung open the prison doors and let more than a third of the inmates go free. Within months, bank robberies jumped by 20%. Kidnappings and fraud also rose, as did computer crime, arson and purse-snatchings. The prison population, however, fell so much that for awhile Italy had more prison guards than prisoners to guard. In Italy, it sometimes seems that no bad deed goes unpardoned. The nation's legal system has roots in the unforgiving codes of the Roman Empire, well known for crucifixions and feeding people to the lions. But since the

If Kevin Federline can afford to tip a waitress two grand, he can pay his own legal fees, say lawyers for Britney Spears. Monday in a Los Angeles court, K-Fed pleaded poverty, saying his ex-wife should continue to pay his hefty law bill — $405,000 to be exact. In just four months, the acrimonious exes have racked up over a million dollars in lawyers' fees, all of which Brit is currently responsible for. But Stacy Phillips, Britney's newest legal eagle, says that the once down-and-out Federline is more than capable of paying his own bills. "He needs to take responsibility for the diligent work being done on his behalf," she said.Phillips told the court commissioner Federline should pay between $150,000 and $175,000 and claimed he omitted his $200,000 spousal- support checks from his earni

Citing Federline's tip of $2,000 on a recent $365 dining tab, Phillips contended that Federline can afford to help pay "for the diligent work being done on his behalf."Currently Spears is responsible for paying her ex-husband's legal fees, including $405,000 owed to Federline's attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan.Phillips further argued that it was inappropriate for Kaplan and his partner to have increased their hourly rate to $600 an hour. Kaplan countered that Phillips charge

Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?"The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?"Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Um ... no."The lawyer interrupts, "or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?"The stricken United Way rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again."or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!"
