While reading the Sunday AM papers and blogs, I started thinking about timely legal and newsworthy topics to cover in coming weeks.
One article discussed how our economy has changed for years to come, along with our own attitudes towards debt, financial planning and other economic/lifestyle issues. Topics I have covered in the past, including the fiduciary responsibilities of your financial advisers, elder financial fraud and mortgage modification certainly warrant further exploration.
Clearly, healthcare is the topic of the moment. As someone that has litigated many medical negligence cases, but has also lectured nationally to physicians on litigation related issues, I am very familiar with many of the arguments on both sides; particularly those related to malpractice reform. In addition, the work I have done on behalf of OCHS helps give me additional insight into this complex and controversial topic.
Along with changes in our economy come changes in business, as well as job movement on the part of employees. I will continue to attempt to cover issues related to business survival tactics, as well as employer/employee issues.
When individuals suffer a personal injury as the result of negligence, they are often confronted by an insurance industry that has the deck stacked in its' favor. I will continue to educate consumers about their basic rights when they are accident victims.
Of course, as always, new topics will presnt opportunities for discussion. There is always a new scammer on the horizon waiting to take advantage of the uninformed, uneducated, elderly or gullible victim. I'll be watching for those new scams of the day.
If any readers have any topics they would like me to cover, feel free to weigh in.
