Everything Old is New Again - Welcome to Our New Law Blog

We've been quiet lately but certainly busy, converting our old web site into our new law blog, or blawg. In the new format, the archives are also categorized by subject matter so that you can use our tips, links and discovery resources more readily in your own law practices. In addition to the blawg, our old "web links" are now visible on the left and right columns of the site. We've also added a number of forms to aid you and your associates on preliminary conferences, compliance conferences and motions in the individual counties of New York City where we are available every day to cover your per diem court appearances. Finally, we've added a "My Yahoo" RSS link on our front page so that you can add our updates to your "My Yahoo" page and follow us on a daily basis.

We hope you use and enjoy these improvements, and as always, we welcome your feedback and your business.

. . . looking up old web sites . . .

is easier than you might think. Go to the Internet Archive at www.archive.org and use the Way Back Machine search engine to locate old editions of websites you are interested in.

While you're at the Internet Directory, browse some live concert downloads at the Live Music Archive or read a book at Project Guttenberg.

. . . confirming whether an aging witness is still alive

Issue: Your case involves an aging party or witness (for you or your adversary) and you want to know if they are still alive to testify at a deposition or at trial.

Solution: Go to the Social Security Death Index maintained by ancestry.com and enter the person's name or social security number to see the results. Their records are not complete but they are a start.
