A Personal
Injury Lawyer presents
a threat to the insurance company which the always
need. You
may need a lawyer because of complex legal rules
involved in your claim. Or simply, because an insurance
company refuses to settle a matter in good faith,
Insurance Bad Faith.
A Personal Injury
Attorney demands compensation for your loss including
pain and suffering when:
1. Death is caused;
2. A fractured bone is suffered;
3. Permanent and serious disfigurement is caused;
4. A "sense" is lost such as hearing, sight, taste or smell;
5. Loss of a body member is suffered;
Proof of any one of the elements above typically require that you obtain your
medical records. A Lawyer will obtain your medical records for you upon receipt
of your written consent typically in the form of a Release. You may then decide
with the advice of your lawyer whether you should pursue your action against
another party for damages.
United States Statutes
of Limitation restrict the time period that a
person can file a lawsuit. These statutes not only
vary by state, but they also vary by cause of action.
The following guide provides limitations periods
for each state, but only for particular causes
of action; specifically, those related to personal
injury, medical malpractice, and products liability
claims. The sections discussing special rules for
minors only apply to the causes of action listed
for that particular state.
How
much time do you have to file a lawsuit? No single
answer exists. Every state has its own time limits,
and even within a state the period of time in which
you must file a lawsuit varies according to the
type of claim. For example, rules in one state
may allow a plaintiff with a personal injury, medical
malpractice claim (such as a misdiagnosis of cancer)
two and one half years year from the date of injury
to file suit and a plaintiff with a personal injury
claim(such as a car accident soft tissue injury)
three years from the date of injury to sue. In
another state, personal injury medical malpractice
plaintiffs may have one year to sue, and plaintiffs
with car accident personal injury claim may have
two years. Infants and mionor statutes vary
from state to state.

procedures related to American immigration visas
and passport. Use this site to learn about the visa
application process, understand current requirements,
and on recent developments.
Our Immigration lawyers are commited
to help those seeking visas to gain permanent residency
and citizenship in the U.S.
Visa Requirements
A Visa doesn’t permit
entry to the U.S., however. A visa simply indicates
that your application has been reviewed by a U.S.
consular officer at an American embassy or consulate,
and that the officer has determined you’re
eligible to enter the country for a specific purpose.
A visa allows you to travel to the
United States as far as the port of entry (airport
or land border crossing) and ask the immigration
officer to allow you to enter the country. Only the
immigration officer has the authority to permit you
to enter the United States. He or she decides how
long you can stay for any particular visit.
There are two types of divorce-- absolute and limited.
An absolute divorce, (also called a "divorce
a vinculo matrimonii" is a judicial termination
of a marriage based on marital misconduct or other
statutory cause arising after the marriage ceremony.
As a result of an absolute divorce both parties'
status becomes single again.
Several jurisdictions' statutes authorize limited
divorces, or "divorce a mensa et thoro." The
consequences of limited divorces will vary from state
to state. Typically, a limited divorce is commonly
referred to as a Separation Decree; the right to
cohabitation is terminated but the marriage is undissolved
and the status of the parties is not altered.
Many states have enacted what are called No-Fault
Divorce Statutes. This is a response to the outdated
Common Law Divorce which required proof in a court
of law by the divorcing party that the divorcee had
done one of several enumerated acts as sufficient
grounds for the divorce. This entailed proving that
the spouse had committed adultery, or engaged in
some other unsavory activity. No-fault divorce eliminates
this potentially embarrassing andundesirable requirement
by providing for the dissolution of a marriage on
a finding that the relationship is no longer viable.
Bankruptcy Lawyers provide basic
information to debtors, creditors, and the general
public on different aspects of the federal bankruptcy
laws. It also provides individuals who may be considering
bankruptcy with a basic explanation of the different
chapters under which a bankruptcy case may be filed
and answers some of the most commonly asked questions
about the bankruptcy process.
Bankruptcy is a federal court process
designed to help consumers and businesses eliminate
their debts or repay them under the protection of
the bankruptcy court. Bankruptcies can generally
be described as "liquidation" (Chapter 7) or "reorganization" (Chapter 13).
Under a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you
ask the bankruptcy court to wipe out (discharge)
the debts you owe.
Under a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you
file a plan with the bankruptcy court proposing how
you will repay your creditors. You must repay some
debts in full; others may be repaid only partially
or not at all, depending on what you can afford.
When you file either kind of bankruptcy,
a court order called an "automatic
stay" goes into effect. The automatic stay
prohibits most creditors from taking any action
to collect the debts you owe them unless the bankruptcy
court lifts the stay and lets the creditor proceed
with collections.

Felonies and Misdemeanors
Most crimes are divided into two main categories: felonies and misdemeanors.
How crimes are classified varies from state to state based on the will of the
people and their elected representatives. Generally:
Felonies are crimes that are
punished by more than one year in prison and usually
are the more serious of the two. Learn more about
Felonies.
Misdemeanors are crimes where
the person faces less than one year in prison and
are usually less serious crimes. Learn more about
Misdemeanors.
Federal vs. State Prosecution
The rules change depending on whether the crime is charged in State or Federal
Court. Most criminal matters are dealt with in state courts unless:
The crime occurred on federal property
Federal employee committed the crime
The criminal activity affects interstate commerce, such as drug trafficking
