When the end of the CPD year approaches, solicitors are desperately running around booking training courses to make sure they fulfil their CPD requirements. But do they actually learn anything from the courses they attend, and are their firms getting any return on their investment? The answer should be yes and if you read this article you will find out how to ensure it always is.

So what should you look for in a great Personal Injury Training Course?
Here are the most important things to look for:

In this article we
will give some more practical info related to auto insurance, but first some

Third article in a three-part series on the legal process for child injury/accident claims.

Depending on which county the lawsuit is filed in, the discovery phase can take many months or sometimes more than a year. When discovery is completed, and each side knows what evidence will be offered at trial, this is the time when the parties may conduct settlement discussions. Sometimes the parties will engage in alternative ways to resolve the case, like mediation. In mediation, the parties agree to hire a retired judge or an experienced attorney who will assist the parties in reaching a settlement. Mediation is voluntary and nonbinding (unless a settlement is reached). A mediation session is also confidential so anything that is said during the session cannot be used at trial. Many times mediation can be used to successfully resolve a case involving children. Mediation sessions can occur in one day or last several days, depending on the complexity of the case.

A deposition is an integral part of most criminal and civil
legal cases (but for the purposes of this article we will focus primarily on
civil cases).  During a deposition, an
attorney will take testimony from a party involved in the case.  This could be one of the litigants in the
case, or a witness who is crucial to the case.

Second in a three part series on the legal process in child accident/injury claims.

It is a dangerous practice to wait to settle a claim or file a lawsuit right before the statute of limitations period expires. If a lawsuit is filed right before the deadline and if the defendant cannot be found, or if the wrong defendant is served, the case could be dismissed and the plaintiff gets nothing. For this reason, it may be prudent to hire an attorney well before the statute of limitations expires. Many attorneys will refuse to accept a case when the statute of limitations period is about to expire because there may be insufficient time to investigate the case, file suit and locate and personally serve the proper defendant.

Getting yourself an arrest warrant is not something that is going to bring you much fun so anything that you can do to avoid it has to be a good thing. Here are some tips to help you to avoid warrants and how to find out if you have any.

Avoid getting arrest warrants if you can and make sure you know when you have one

Not all arrest warrants can be avoided because they are completely out of your control. You can make sure that you find out about them early enough to find a lawyer and deal with it before the police come knocking on your door in the middle of the night to drag you away to jail.

You can get an arrest warrant if someone commits an offence and gives the police your name. It can take only a minute to get your identity stolen if a thief has access to your wallet. You should take steps to prevent this from happening but it’s impossible to be 100% sure that someone isn’t impersonating you.

Why did the police get Antony Wayman out of bed in the middle of the night?

Antony is a shy kind of guy who works in a bank. He isn’t a high flyer but he knows his job very well and if he keeps his record clean he will surely progress through the ranks into a well paid position someday.
