How do you get the law to work on your side

In my friends divorce settlement she was to get certain things (like a $15,ooo one time payment and Health coverage benefits which her husband simply doesn't pay, she hired 3 different lawyers who took the little money she has left, one said he couldn't take her case afterall sev months later shile sitting with all her papers and kept her money, the next sent her private matters to her ex's attorneys office for them to see. Meanwhile her financial accountant (who turns out to be a drug addict and dealer) has raped her bank account of 100,000 dollars, the bank acknowledged it as fraud and money laundering but isn't taking any action. Where does she go with this mess?!! She has no $ left for a lawyer, the police can't do anything, who actually does something in this country if there is grand larson, hwere does one go?

What are your opinions on him as a Democratic Presidential candidate in 2008? Just watched an interview he gave on Hardball and I think he had some valid points. Let me know what you think, good or bad............

could the attorneys be doing this for some ulterior motive, may be working together to settle the case or upset the clients into early settlement?

They seem so busy scowling and denigrating people I was wondering if these right-wing hold-overs from the dark ages even HAVE a heart.

And what's with the mentally ill hate? It's GROSS.
And the hatred of religous freedom if your not giving money to Xtianity.

Is there a cure for these morbid problems?

I know some girls that drive dangerously at my high school. It really should matter if you are a guy or girl. There will be bad driver for each gender. It seems unfair to me.

Firstly I'm not planning to off myself!
Just wondered if someone commits suicide does the insurance company pay out on the life insurance or not?

As I understand it, the conservative argument for invading Iraq said basically that because there was some chance Sadaam had, or would get, weapons that might seriously hurt us, doing nothing was not an option. We had to take action.

In response to global warming, their argument seems to be be that while there is some chance it might seriously hurt us, doing nothing is our only option. We must not take action until something horrible actually happens.

Does this make sense to anyone?

This Racist_Beaner's kids would have to pay out-of-state tuition if they wanted to attend UCLA or USC or San Diego State. We are dumb citizens.

But if you get your parents to break several major federal laws (illegally entering the country, illegally obtaining a drivers license, illegally obtaining social security numbers, not paying your taxes, identity theft, housing code violations, etc), and you are now an adult illegal alien when you turn 18, YOU TOO CAN NOW GET FINANCIAL AID AND IN-STATE TUITION, paid in full by the stupid American taxpayer.

Ain't LaLa land grand, where you can screw the tax payer to pander to interest groups.

It wouldn't be so bad if the tax dollars came only from stupid Californians, but federal dollars are the biggest funds for this. So you in Ohio are paying for this crap.

Lawmakers approve financial aid to illegal immigrants

We have already been through the courts and lost due to incompetence on the part of our very expensive attorney, and a stubborn old judge. It is regarding my 11 year old stepson (boyfriend's son) who left to visit his mom and didn't come back. He was living with us for a few months prior, and going to school and doing well. Now we cannot even get a hold of him or her (spoken once in a month and a half) despite repeated calls and messages. It is a BAD environment with drugs, alcohol, lack of guidance and erratic school attendance. He was supposed to fly back to us after 2 weeks. We feel powerless...he is out of state and we cannot afford another attorney. It is really a matter of his health and welfare, he's only 11. If you have any ideas, thanks.
