Law Series, Letters "X", "Y" and "Z"

“Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute”  With the three toughest letters of the alphabet left in my Law A-Z series, it was time to wrap up XY and Z.  Luckily, way back in 1778 an important event is our history occurred.  It was called the “XYZ Affair” (I’m sure all of you remember from social studies).  Anyway, the affair declared to the world that the United States does not exchange peace for money.  Certainly those who have loved ones held as hostages would be very happy to exchange money for an immediate release.  But it is illegal to do so, and thus a topic ripe for discussion on this morning’s “Open” tv show.   A new legal series is on the way starting in January.  Meanwhile, here is the link to our last Law A-Z series starring the letters XY and Z:

Law Series, Letter "W"

Although you may qualify for Worker’s Compensation, many times your employer’s insurance company will dispute not only the severity of the injury, but whether the injury itself was caused by your work related accident.   This morning on the television show “Open”, I continued my Law A-Z discussion as I tackled the letter “W”.  If you have a worker’s compensation claim there are tips you should know to make sure your claim will be getting the proper attention.  Watch tonight for the recablecast, Cablevision, channel 67.  Or, the segment is now online:
