Below are two blog posts on family and employment law. The first post  Ending an Abusive Marriage When You’re Older and the second is called Are You an Employee or Not? New Federal Rule on Employee Classification Goes into Effect March 11.

Our primary practice areas remain family law, employment law for workers or management, and general civil and criminal/municipal court advocacy. If you need a lawyer here or elsewhere in practice areas we do not handle, then we will make appropriate referrals for you, free of charge.

Happy Spring,
