We’re still planning if we will celebrate it at home or at some new place or resort. Anyway we still have 2 months to prepare so there’s no rush about it.

Her Dream TV

When my office friend dropped by the mall with me in the afternoon she requested me that she’ll just go to appliance store and canvas her choice of brand for her dream television. She was surprised as the store we entered has an ongoing summer sale and you’ll be tempted to look and buy if you have money. We’ve looked in almost all styles and brands like Panasonic TVs and other LED TVs but she settled for the best brand that she loves since childhood. Well for now it’s still too pricey for her but after two months I know she can afford it well.

Orthopaedic & Spine Care

Three years ago I had an accident that hit my whole body especially my legs. We were walking down the road from the restaurant that we had lunch. I have my complete family with me on our way going to our church when I suddenly slipped on the uneven road. I had an imbalance which prompted my whole body to fall flat on the ground. In my futile attempt to rescue from head my hips and legs were affected the most. It was so sudden that no one was able to stop me from falling and I walking behind them when it happened.

At first I didn’t know the affected parts but when I started walking again it was then that I realized I badly needed foot and ankle care because those were badly hit by the fall. They almost carried me back to our church and made me sit and stretch my legs when we finally arrived there. Upon reaching home after few hours my Mom gave me an emergency checkup and massage therapy to rule out the extent of my fall. She knows how to massage misplaced veins and always gives me massage therapy if I’m at pain.

Well she told me that my foot and hip were badly affected and I was treated immediately to minimize some swelling on my body parts. It was a painful treatment but I had to endure it to regain the strength of my foot, ankle and hips.

Younger Medical Professionals

I’m surprised sometimes when I see doctors in the hospital. As a child I used to regard them as respectable, comforting, very accommodating and most often middle-aged or old. Today they still have the same qualities but look very young for their profession. I’m actually amazed at how these young professionals can be as good as their old counterparts. Sometimes if you will not see them wearing their lab coat you will not know or guess that they’re medical doctors. Anyway one good side of this is their tendency to be more open to modern technology that helps make regular hospital procedures easier and faster.

Common Questions Asked in a Consultation

0516-lawyers (Photo credit: Rae Z)

Before filing a suit, hiring a lawyer or taking some other kind of legal action, it is often a good idea to consult an attorney. A consultation is not hiring an attorney, and legal representation is not provided. It can help one interested in pursuing legal action determine the best way to proceed or the best way to defend against someone else’s actions.

A legal consultation is mostly about information. The potential client presents a situation and the facts to the lawyer who explains relevant law and the legal implications of the potential case. After the consultation, the potential client can either hire the lawyer or leave to pursue other options.

When planning a consultation, a potential client should prepare a list of questions to ask the attorney. Common questions asked in a consultation are:

• How much is your consultation fees? Since the consultation is often the first step in taking legal action, it makes sense for this to be the first question. While some attorneys offer their consultation for free, many do not. Determine how much the lawyer charges for a consultation, ideally before the actual consultation.

• What are your fees and how much will it cost? During the consultation, ask about how much it will cost to hire the attorney for the case. Does the attorney charge by the hour and, if so, how much? Some attorneys advertise that they “only get paid if you get paid,” so ask about outcome-related payment. There will likely be a charge regardless of outcome, so ask about payment plans or prorated fees.

• Do I have a case? A case should be pursued only if it is worth pursuing. Ask about the chances of winning or losing the case. Ask about how long the case may last. Also, ask about what happens if the case is lost.

• Background and expertise? If, for example, one needs a San Antonio personal injury attorney, determine if the attorney has expertise in this field and knowledge about the local law. If one needs a divorce attorney, pursue an attorney with expertise in family law.

There are naturally many more questions that can be asked in a consultation. In addition to specific inquiries about the potential case, questions about caseloads, experience and contact information are good too. Consulting a lawyer is important. Not only can it inform a potential client on the legal implications of their case, it can also help in the attorney selection process itself.

Who Needs a New Stair?

Thinking about your stair set isn’t something most people do too often. You never think about it until you need to do something with it. If you had a quality builder build your house you might never have to do anything with your stairway. It will be there for you through thick and thin until the end of time. If you however have bought an older house or need to do some remodeling you might have to take extra time to think about your staircase. Sometimes it might just be time for a refresh.
