Legal Aid Society

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

The oldest and largest provider of legal services in the United States to its community was founded in 1876. The Legal Aid Society's main function is to provide free legal services to the people living in New York who are living at or below the poverty level. This will help to ensure that the justice system does not miss out on these groups of people who cannot afford to hire a lawyer. These groups of people are unable to even have enough for their daily basic necessities much say a lawyer should they require one when they face a legal situation. The Legal Aid Society basically provides services such as criminal defense and juvenile representation in Family Court for these groups of people in New York.

Every year, the Society will have to handle about more than 200,000 indigent criminal cases. On top of these criminal cases, the Society has to act as legal guardian to more than 30,000 children, representing individuals, families and community groups in more than 30,000 cases. The number of cases taken by the Society has only increased since it was founded in 1876. This could only imply that the income gap between the rice and poor in New York is growing further and further apart as the country progress. This has resulted in more and more people having to turn to legal aid service provided when they face a legal situation they need help with. (more...)

The Law Schools of Famous Lawyers

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Choosing a Law School can be a difficult decision. Besides the obvious things such as ranking, expense, location and reputation many potential law students are interested to know what famous attorneys came from the schools they are thinking of attending. Yet, unless someone does independent research on numerous institutions or wants to research the backgrounds of a particular attorney they are a fan of there is no real good resource that provides such information. To remedy this, I thought I'd pick out a handful of my favorite attorneys and list where they got their Juris Doctors from.

My personal favorite attorney has to be former California Prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi of 'The Manson Murders' fame. Mr. Bugliosi was able to convict Charles Manson despite the fact that Manson never was actually at the crime scene and committed his crime by brainwashing and planning the Tate/La Bianca murders from afar. He has since gone on to be an internationally acclaimed writer beginning with the legendary 'Helter Skelter' and including the more recent 'Outrage' and 'The prosecution of George W. Bush For Murder'. Vincent Bugliosi attended UCLA Law School and graduated in 1964.

These people have no special business or marketing training, didn't start off with a large amount of capital, and don't spend 20 hours per day working on their enterprises. In fact, it seems that they're able to make money online without expending very much effort at all. Understandably, you want in on the action. What's their secret?

Well, there are actually lots of different ways to consistently - and legally - make money online. For example, if you have a product to sell, it would be very easy to get set up at a few different auction sites. Thousands of people make a full-time living just from running auctions. Even if you don't have a product to sell, you can still make money online. Many people get their start from putting up a simple website and filling it with affiliate links that generate a commission every time a visitor clicks on the links. Of course, you would have to have some kind of content on the website or it's not likely that visitors will keep coming back to it. (more...)
