My lawyer keeps pushing me to take a settlement if it is offered saying that if I deny their counter offer then I may get nothing. This is from a back injury that clearly shows they are liable and I have records from many of my doctors saying that I can't lift anymore and diagnosed me with a certain lower back injury. Does my lawyer negotiate with the insurance company for me to settle for less and fast so he gets paid thousands that I never see? So that he benefits more than I actually do. He also said if I don't take the settlement and push the case to get medical coverage and weekly payments, that is more of a chance to lose the case and get nothing. Does this sound strange or is this how comp cases work? Please respond with actual experiences or real legal knowledge, thanks.

Barry Bond's lawyer Michael Rains said this statement about Bonds perjury allegation in the steroid investigations.

"This investigation is based on the political considerations of this [presidential] administration," Rains told the Mercury News. "The BALCO case is a legacy of Bush, and it is a catastrophic failure -- legally and from a public-relations standpoint."

What is the basis for his allegation that this is a "legacy for Bush"? Wouldn't it be a negative for Bush since he was the owner of the Texas Rangers during the "steroid era"?

I am Christian but conservatives say that I am a liberal, not a Christian. So if you live south of the USA border and are starving but all you have to do to get work and buy food is walk a mile to the north what would Jesus say? Isn't “love your enemy” a rather liberal concept? Is Jesus a Christian?

What examples from history, politics or government demonstrate how to interpret what has happened? Everything appears to be legal, so no coup has taken place, but no election has taken place to replace him. The order of succession has landed the position in his lap. Has this ever occurred in the History of government and nations and what happened?

Thanks!

I bought a home 6 years ago and thought I would be happy here with my daughter and mother. My mother has since passed away and daughter working and living somewhere else. Throughout the 6 years, I discovered a couple of things -one when it rains and especially hard rain, my basement flooded, Sometimes water would rest just at your ankles. As a result mold and mildew and other water damage existed. I became sick and was hospitablized more than 6 times over the years. I developed Asthma, and bronchitis, and was unable to go down stairs for any length of time. Much of my furniture, albums, etc, were destroyed. My insurance company threw their hands in the air and so did the mortgage company. I sincerely believe that the property owners KNEW about the rain and flooding. The house sold at $90,000 and after the sale, the realtor showed me that other homes in the area were going for $120,000. Do I have a right to investigate and determine that fraud was involved? My ailments still exist

For every action...there's an equal and opposite reaction. The neocons have tried to push America so far to the right in such a short period of time. There will be an equal and opposite move to the left as a result of this.

I loaned my exhusband some money by check and wrote on it loan. He mailed me a check to pay it back (pay back loan written on check). He stopped payment on the check and I just got the copy in the mail. The check was for $500. Can I turn it over to the bad check unit or is this civil instead of criminal?

honestly, i am ready for a new president:{) i like Bush, don't get me wrong, but The No Child Left Behind Act is killing me and others around me. Most of his laws are unfair and unjust to me. and alot of other things that he does and decides. but that's just me. i hate his decisions and what he does. i do have an authority problem though.

does anyone agree or disagree? ill take any answer:)
