What is your experience as a foreclosure defense attorney?

Carl E. Person

My name is Carl Pierson, and I am a Attorney in New York State. I am admitted to the Federal and State Courts in New York State, and I have various admissions elsewhere throughout the country. I'm a graduate of Harvard Law School, I graduated as the Magna Com Laudi at Long Island University, and I was the Student Council President there. My efforts for many years have been in law. I have more than forty years of litigation experience across the board in a variety of different types of matters. And I'm bringing all of that to bear on this new phenomenon, the crisis that we have in America of foreclosures. I'm trying to deal with them in the best way for the benefit of the people that are losing their homes. Because they don't have to lose their homes, there are protections. For example, New York State is not by accident the state which has the longest period of time for a foreclosure to take place. It was done deliberately in order to prevent people from being thrust out of their homes merely because the bankers are tired of having them live in their homes. So we set up obstacles, and that creates a 14 month period, roughly, for a person to be still in his home even when though he can't pay the mortgage. We've done that deliberately. In California, however, there is a non-judicial foreclosure. And they don't even go into court. When you lose your home in California, the bank puts a sign on your front lawn, they have a bus that takes people by your property, and then they sell your property. And that's a non-judicial foreclosure in Arizona, New Hampshire, California and other states. So New York is the longest state, and the best protected, the state that has the best protection for it's residents. I'm Carl Pierson, a New York lawyer, and a fighter, to keep people in their homes.

Can I be arrested for drug paraphernalia but no drugs in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, you can be arrested for having drug paraphernalia, even if you don't have the actual substance. What the police and what the state will intend to prove is that there is some amount of residue of the actual substance on the drug paraphernalia, that can be included on a pipe, that can be as little as a very small amount of marijuana in a marijuana cigarette. The state will charge a drug paraphernalia charge as a class six felony or a class one misdemeanor, both of which could carry anywhere of a sentence from six months in jail to a year in prison. Arizona takes these crimes very seriously. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over the state of Arizona in criminal law matters such as drug possession, domestic violence and assault.

Do employers have to accomodate my pregnancy in NY?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

I’m often asked by a woman who’s become pregnant what her rights are in the state of New York. And there’s not a simple answer to that question. It’s governed by state statutes and federal statutes, and most importantly by the employer’s guidelines as well. What an employer can’t do is treat you differently because you are pregnant. A common misconception is that if you have complications because of your pregnancy you are also, under New York State Law, temporarily disabled. So, for instance, if you have thrombosis you are not only pregnant but you are also temporarily disabled which would trigger both gender discrimination laws in the state of New York as well as anti- discrimination laws based on disability. So, my best advice to a woman who has become pregnant and believes she is suffering adverse treatment in the workplace is to seek out the advice of an attorney as soon as possible. My name is Walker Harman. I am the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe that you’ve been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak to you! Please give us a call.

How do hot gas ripoffs affect our California gas taxes?

Girardi & Keese Lawyers

When you pay the gas tax, you pay a certain portion for the state on every gallon, certain portion to the feds on every gallon. However, when the Chevrons of the world and Shell and everybody else, they're all the same, when they go pay the state and they go pay the feds, say on ten thousand gallons, they say, "You know we really didn't sell ten thousand. We're gonna temperature adjust it. We only sold 9,400." Then you know what they do with that tax money? They keep it. They keep the differential. I know you don't believe me, but I promise you that's the case. This is not a situation where a lawyer is saying, "This is what happened" and the oil company is saying, "Oh no, this is what happened", the fact of the matter is, they've agreed that that's exactly what they do. My name is Tom Giradi. I'm the senior partner or Giradi/Keese. For the past forty four years, we have helped people in California who have been seriously harmed.

Are lawsuits from car accidents on the rise in New York?

Proner & Proner

Car accident lawsuits are actually decreasing in New York state statically from the court administration statistics. And, that's probably a good thing, it means, because in the simple fender bender, there's less injuries because of restraint systems and air bags. However, if somebody is going fast, and they do sustain catastrophic injuries, more likely than not there needs to be a lawsuit for the individual injured in that accident to get fair compensation for the injuries sustained. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

Are my medical bills covered after a motorcycle accident in NY?

If you've been injured in a fire in New York, an attorney can look at the cause of the fire and can also look at how the fire spread and can hire the appropriate experts to determine whether or not the building owner followed the rules that were required under New York state, which are dependent upon when the certificate of occupancy of the building was filed with the building department. And based upon when that certificate of occupancy was filed, there are certain legal obligations and the attorney can look to see if those legal obligations were followed and whether or not if they were not followed if they led to the injuries that you've sustained and they can use the failures of the owners to get you the money you deserve.

Who should seek an order of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

Undoubtedly in Arizona, a person who feels threatened by physical harm or genuinely harassed by either an ex-spouse or by an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, should seek an order of protection. Because if that defendant or that person is harassing your or tries to contact you in any way outside of the scope of the order of protection, they can be arrested for interference of judicial proceedings and face up to six months in jail for contacting you. It is very important for a person who feels that their life, that their freedom, or that their happiness is in danger by another individual seek and obtain an order of protection.

How do I get an order of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the process for obtaining an order of protection is quite simple. The person needs to go to the courthouse, ask the appropriate clerk or staff about how to fill up the paperwork. They will then fill out the paperwork, go before a judge, and the judge will evaluate, expartate which means individually without another person present the merits of the allegations against the defendant. If the judge or the commissioner feels that the order of protection is appropriate, they will grant the order of protection. And by rule of thumb, they will grant the order of protection more often than they will deny it. My name is Mike Baker of The Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over the State of Arizona in Criminal Law matters such as drug possession, domestic violence and assault.

Do orders of protection work in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

Orders of protection are very effective in Arizona. The police, and all of the sheriff's departments have databases that keep people who have orders of protection on an online database. This database can be accessed by any police agency. If a defendant breaks that order of protection, they will be arrested, and they will be booked. They will be taken down to a jail, and they will be charged with interference with judicial proceedings. If a person feels genuine and sincere danger or harassment from another individual, an order of protection is a very effective means at protecting one's self.

Can kids be placed on orders of protection in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

The most common misperception of an order of protection is that children cannot be placed on an order of protection. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on the party, children can be placed on an order of protection and a parent can be wholly prohibited from contacting those children as a result of the current order of protection placed against them. Therefore if a child is placed on an order of protection, it is imperative for that person to contact a lawyer, contact my office, so that we can assist you in getting that child off of an order or protection that often times is unfortunately used as a vindictive means by one parent to prevent access to other child.

What is the role of an attorney in a Domestic Violence case in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, handling a domestic violence matter is often tricky and fraught with various different persons who have interest in the proceeding. A victim might want to be protected but also might want to get back together with a defendant. The defendant might be prevented by terms of their release conditions from even going back to the home where a married couple had been for many, many years. Therefore the role of a defense attorney is two-fold. Its one to handle the actual criminal matter but on the other hand it to act in some sense as a counselor navigating through a process that is unfamiliar. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over the state of Arizona in crinimal law matters such as drug possession, domestic violence and assault.

What's the #1 misconception people have about dog bite injuries?

Mazow & McCullough

The number one misconception in the state of Massachusetts involving dog bite attacks is who's going to pay the claim, who's going to compensate you for your injuries and often times there is no insurance coverage available. Either the specific owner did not involve the insurance company or fill out the documents on their insurance application involving the dog or notifying the insurance company that they owned the dog; that may allow the insurance company to deny the claim. At the end of the day you may be left pursuing the owner of the dog personally to compensate you for your injuries. My name's Kevin McCullough with the law offices of Mazow and McCullough. If you've been injured you need legal assistance, you have questions you deserve answers to those questions and you deserve the best. Call our offices.

Are there pregnancy leave laws in California?

The Schlehr Law Firm

There are several laws that relate to pregnancy and leave from work in California. Some of these laws are federal laws like the family and leave act. Some are State laws like the Pregnancy Disability Leave Law in the California Family Rights Act. Each of those laws entitles the woman to take protective from work. In addition to that California has something called Paid Family Leave. This does not protect your job while you take leave from work but it does provide for partial wage reimbursement when you take another form of leave. My name is Sarah Schlehr of the Schlehr Law firm, I work to protect Californian employees from discrimination and harassment from the work place.

Are men victims of sexual harassment in the workplace?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

"Men can be victims of sexual harassment. It's not as common as women and I think more importantly, men are more hesitant to come forward with claims of sexual harassment. But yes, men can be sexually harassed in the state of New York, they can be sexually harassed by women, they can be sexually harassed by men, and the most important thing is that, if you are a man, and you believe you are being sexually harassed, you need to make sure that the harasser understands that the conduct is unwanted and that you immediately thereafter let the company know. My name is Walker Harman. I'm the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you have been a victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak with you.

How is sexual harassment in college defined?

There is a specific statute that prevents sexual harassment on a college campus that receives federal funds. It's a federal statute. It applies in the state of New York as well. And if your particular college or university receives federal funds (the vast majority of them do,) your particular college or university will fall under the statute and it prevents any type of sexual harassment on a college campus and if the college doesn't take immediate action to prevent further sexual harassment or address or redress the sexual harassment it can be held liable for it under the federal statute.

What laws protect me from workplace harassment in New York?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

There are no laws in New York that prevent an employee from being harassed in the state of New York. It's a common misunderstanding that many employees have, they believe that if their boss is being rude to them, is being hostile to them, is giving them more work than someone else, that that is legal. I often receive phone calls by people who believe that they have a cause of action for wrongful termination. There's no such thing as wrongful termination in New York, it's a broad term that is used to describe employment discrimination, but it does not protect someone who is just merely being harassed in the workplace. My name is Walker Harman, I'm the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination we are eager to speak with you.

What if my pregnancy prevents me from doing my job?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

In the state of New York if your pregnancy prevents you from doing your job and you have a doctor's certification that your pregnancy is preventing youf rom doing your job, then you should immediately inform your employer of your doctor's orders whatever they might be. Whether it be shorter work hours or time away form work. If your employer does not accomodate you, you could potentially, not in every instance, but you could potentially be the victim of disability discrimination. Because if your pregnacy has caused you to develop some sort of condition that requires bedrest or time away from work, that could be a temporary dissability.

What is the California Foreclosure Consultants Act?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

The California Foreclosure Consultants Act is a law in California that prevents people from approaching you while you're in foreclosure and asking you for money up front to perform a service for you to help you get out of foreclosure. It's illegal for somebody, such as a mortgage broker, someone other than an attorney to come to you and say, "Give me money now for something I'm going to do for you later". You actually have to perform the service and then get paid for it afterwards because the Legislature has realized that people, when they're in foreclosure, are in a vulnerable situation and they'll do anything to try and save their home. So, it's really a law to protect consumers. Attorneys are exempt from that model because we are licensed by the state and we're held to a higher standard. So, we are able to actually go to somebody and sign them up under a retainer agreement to perform a loan modification. It's okay for us to do that. But, the Legislature has prevented others from doing that. My name is Damian Nassiri. I'm a partner in the Law Firm Howard and Nassiri. We're based in Southern California and we help people save their homes. I've you've been the victim of a predatory loan or you're facing foreclosure, give us a call.

Are some car accident injuries more serious than they appear?

Proner & Proner

Normally in a car accident in New York state if somebody breaks their ankle or wrist or has a bad cut that results in scarring, they know they're badly injured and they get an attorney immediately. However, by the simple physics of a car accident, you're grabbing on to the steering wheel, you tense up, you may get a shoulder injury or a knee injury that is not diagnosed immediately, then you think it's going to go away and it doesn't go away, and eventually you need surgery for it. And then you're looking for a fair compensation because you're disabled as a result of this injury that you thought was going to go away and it didn't go away, and you're not going to get a fair compensation because it wasn't diagnosed at the time of the accident so you're better off going to a doctor giving your complaints to them immediately so it could be diagnosed. Hopefully it will be treated considerably with therapy and you'll get better. But if it's not, you need that doctor immediately and you need an attorney to get your fair compensation for the injuries you've sustained in that car accident in New York. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you're looking for an experienced skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.
