Helping you help yourself

I’ve been providing per diem services to other lawyers for many years, generally to rave reviews. I can do the research and writing you don’t have time for, or be in court for you when you can’t be in two places at once, or be that second set of eyes and ears, that second trained […]

Choice of Law

Exercising the brain keeps you young, doesn’t it? Per diem legal work is a fountain of youth, then. There’s nothing like reasoning through a nice meaty choice of law issue to keep the synapses firing! I’m working on choice of law in insurance coverage where multiple states have a connection to the accident.

The Advantage of being a Generalist

Recently I have been researching a number of questions for a personal injury attorney-client. As a per diem attorney I enjoy being a generalist and gaining experience and knowledge in many different areas of practice.
