Schmerling sustained serious injuries as a result of being struck by a motor vehicle while walking in a…[...]

The Importance of Being Kind

Dec 17, 2018
  Saw this post on my cousin’s Facebook page. So good I wanted to share it: As America fights to figure things out, I'll be holding doors for strangers, letting people cut in front of me in traffic, saying good morning, keeping babies entertained in grocery lines, stopping to talk to someone who is lonely, tipping generously, taking back someone's…[...]

Every Child Deserves That Magical Christmas Night

Dec 14, 2018
Remember your Christmases past? Hopefully they were filled with smiles, warmth and magical moments. Some may not be so lucky to have that experience. Consider generosity to be a must, not a maybe, this holiday season. There are so many children that don’t have a wonderous Christmas. In fact, they have no presents, no tree, no Christmas meal.

This is the third in a series of blogs discussing the erosion of the right to a jury trial. In recent years, politicians and advocacy groups have bombarded us with calls for “tort reform.” It’s usually touted as a way to stop litigation abuse or to curb runaway verdicts. Unfortunately, it’s often little more than an excuse to strip away valuable rights,…[...]

Pretty much everyone finds themselves in need of gifts for family, friends, and coworkers, Secret Santa exchanges, silly White Elephant games, or party favors or hostess gifts.

In Wheeling for the Holidays

Dec 10, 2018
Almost Heaven is the perfect term for the “Friendly City” of Wheeling during the holiday season. My opinion may be slightly biased since I have not spent the Christmas season anywhere else. Everyone in the city seems to fully embrace the holiday season. My fondest holiday memories always happened tucked in the hills of beautiful West Virginia. Smelling my grandma’s…[...]
