Q: What is a deposition, and will I have to testify at a deposition?

A: First, a deposition is a question and answer session where you will swear (or affirm) to tell the truth. The questions and answers are recorded by a Court stenographer, who will later transcribe all of the questions and answers into a booklet.

If you are bringing a lawsuit for injuries you or your loved one suffered then you will be required to testify about your knowledge of the events and your knowledge of the injuries. You will also be asked questions about how those injuries have affected you (or your loved one) and what treatment you’ve received to treat those injuries.

The attorney(s) for the people you have sued will be questioning you, usually in my office. Sometimes, because of an inability to travel, we can accomodate the injured victim and conduct the deposition closer to their home. Naturally, I will be there with you every step of the way.

Prior to your ‘deposition’ you will meet with me, either on the day you are scheduled to be asked questions, or on a scheduled day before the deposition. During that meeting, I will prepare you extensively about what you can expect will be asked of you by the other attorney(s). By the time we have finished our meeting, you will be aware of practically all the types of questions you will likely be asked by our adversaries.

During the deposition, if you have any questions or concerns, we can take a break and discuss them in the privacy of my office.

Once your deposition session is finished, you can expect to receive a copy of the booklet that contains all of the questions and answers asked and given. You will also receive special instructions about how you must review the transcript for any errors, and what to do if you find factual or typgraphical errors.

On another date, I will have an opportunity to then question the ‘defendant’ (the party that you have sued) to determine from them what happened and why. You are welcome to attend the defendant’s deposition with me, however there are some instances where I will advise against being there, and in some instances I will encourage the client to accompany me.

About Wills
No one wants to think of the possibility of death - that is, his/her own death. But it is important to make sure that your family and other loved ones are provided for if anything happens to you. If you don’t have a will then now is the time to give it serious thought. If you have made a will and you want to make amendments then do so now because it will be too late to make those changes if something should happen to you.

Always make sure that your wishes are properly documented because the court will look at your will as the final proof of your wishes regarding your assets on your death. Remember - if you don’t have a written will the courts will assess what is to happen to your assets and they will order the disposal of your assets in the way they believe is best. The problem is that this may not be according to your wishes; so make sure you look seriously at the making of a will at the earliest.

What is a Will?
A will is a document containing your instructions and wishes as to how your property and assets are to be distributed after your death. Any person, of any age, should seriously consider a will at the earliest. A will should not only be for people who have reached an age where death is not far away. People die at all ages and a will is needed especially if you have assets and property to be allocated to those you wish to benefit.

A will is the expression of the person’s wishes concerning how their property is to be distributed. It is a written statement, signed in compliance with the various formalities covered by legislation. It is a legal document containing the names of the people you want to benefit, as well as details of your possessions at the date of your death. The people you want to benefit are called beneficiaries.

Your property or possessions will include everything you own, such as your home, land, vehicles, bank accounts, benefits of insurance policies, furniture, boat, investments such as shares, personal jewellery, artwork, and so on. A will is the only way you can ensure your assets will be distributed according to your wishes after your death.

What is a Valid Will?
A valid will is a will that is accepted by the court and put into effect by the court granting what is known as probate. Probate is approval or acceptance by the court of how your assets are to be dealt with.

A valid will must have the following features:

• It must be in writing - handwritten, typed or printed.
• It must be signed with your signature at the end of the document.
• It must be witnessed by at least two other people present at the time of signing. They need to acknowledge they were present and must sign the will as witnesses in your presence. They don’t have to be together at the same time of signing.

If your will is not made in this manner then the court may not accept it and it would be unenforceable (the courts will not enforce it). The court has discretion to grant probate (probate is confirmation that the will is valid and accepted) and your possessions could be disposed of as if you hadn’t made a will at all. When the court exercises this discretion, it has to be satisfied that the document sets out clearly how you wanted your assets to be allocated or distributed.

About Completing a Will
Most people know that they need to put together a will sometime before they die. Unfortunately, the majority of people don’t have a will. They don’t think about writing up a will until they are past the age of 50.

Writing a will doesn’t need to be expensive. Once it is done you can rest easy, knowing that your wishes will be followed after your death. Most wills can be composed quite simply. Others are more complex and involve more people, substantial assets, and cash. These wills should be discussed with lawyers who specialise in this area.

While a will is not critical if you do not possess much (e.g. property for distributions), you may have personal items such as jewellery, manuscripts, or trophies that you want to be left to specific people. Having a will clarifies this and saves any arguments later on.

If your estate, possession and property are valuable, you should ensure that a will sets out your wishes and instructions clearly. It might be inconvenient for you to set up a Will while you are alive, but it could save arguments and fighting amongst your beneficiaries.

Why Make a Will?
If a person dies without making a will then the rules according to law will apply. If you die without a will the term is; you have died “intestate”. If you die intestate then the court rules on how things are done, how your property is distributed, and who the beneficiaries would be. It may not be according to your wishes, so dying intestate is not a good position to be in as far as your beneficiaries are concerned.

Because most of us don’t know when we are going to die, we should approach the drafting of a will as if we haven’t many days left on this earth. This is important because it saves arguments amongst family members and beneficiaries after your death.

The following are a few examples of what could happen if you died in testate. You may not be particularly happy about some of them.

• If you die without spouse or children, but are survived by your parents, then your parents will generally receive all the assets of your estate.
• If you die and are survived by a spouse, then the whole of your estate will generally pass to your spouse.
• If you die and are survived by a spouse and children, the estate will most likely be divided between your spouse and children, as determined by the courts. The split of your estate between your spouse and children can cause problems for your spouse, who may have to sell a family home in order to pay out the shares to the children.
• If you die without spouse, children or parents, but are survived by brothers and sisters, then your estate will be divided equally amongst those brothers and sisters.

There are a number of reasons why you should make a will as soon as you can.

These are:

• To protect your loved ones.
• Making a will is one of the only ways to be certain that your lifetime’s work and assets, built up over the years, are passed on to the people you want. It provides security for your family and those you are responsible for. Most of your life would be spent building up your assets. These may consist of home, car, insurance policies and other investments, etc. You will want those assets to go to the people you choose, rather than to someone else.
• Smooth transfer of assets.
• Having a will enables your assets to be transferred smoothly on your death. You need to prepare a detailed list of your assets, as well as your personal goals before putting your plan in place. Your ultimate plan will involve investment advice and planning, so that there is a provision for the orderly transfer of your assets.
• To secure your children’s future.
• If you have children (under adult age), you may wish to nominate guardians and make arrangements for their upkeep and education.
• For a second marriage.
• If you are currently in your second marriage, you need a will to protect the members of your new family. A marriage generally invalidates any will made prior to the date of marriage, so unless you have a new will including reference to your new family, your new family may not get the protection you want.
• De facto relationship.

If you die without a Will your partner could stand to lose assets and mementos that rightly belong to him/her. A de facto spouse does not have an automatic entitlement to your estate if you die without a will. Strangely enough, a divorced former spouse can still inherit your estate because a divorce does not automatically cancel a will.

Is your car making you pucker up like you have eaten a lemon? A spoonful of sugar will not make it all better. You need to brush up on the latest lemon laws in your state. It seems you may have gotten a dud of a car, a car lemon for lack of a better term. So you can brush up on the latest lemon law or you can consult with one of probably many lemon law attorneys available in your state.

Let us suppose you live in California. Research the latest lemon law California has to offer by perusing through the statutes in the state of California’s Civil Code. If that does not get you yawning, nothing will! To save yourself from the boredom of reading through all that legalese, you can also consult with some lemon law lawyers. Or, read on for a summary of these statutes to see if you have a legal leg to stand on. You will have to decide if you need to start making lemonade with that car lemon.

One of the statutes of the California Civil Code states that you must make a realistic effort to have your new car fixed to conform to basic warranties from the vehicle manufacturer. There is a limit of a year and a half or 18,000 miles on the car’s odometer, whichever happens first, for the problem to be rectified, before being considered a car lemon.

Of course, as with anything else, there are other provisions to that rule. First, the malfunction must have been repaired two or more times without success, with the result being that the car is dangerous or unsafe to drive in a way that might cause severe injury or casualties. Or, secondly, your car is still not fixed satisfactorily after four repeated attempts by the manufacturer. Finally, another reason that your vehicle could be facing a car lemon law is if your vehicle has been out for repairs for more than a month or thirty straight days.

The above information is just a sampling of the lemon law California has on the books. There is more to it than that, but is should give you a good start in understanding where you stand with your dud of a car. To be sure that you are in compliance with any CA lemon law, make sure to get some legal counsel.

You will discover that you can request a refund of the purchase of the car from the manufacturer. The car manufacturer can also substitute your dud of a vehicle with a new equally comparable vehicle. They would be responsible for all the taxes and fees that go with the purchase of a new car including the costs you incurred in rental and repair fees.

One thing lemon law lawyers might tell you is that if you request the manufacturer to make restitution through a new vehicle or a refund before you file any civil suit and they refuse, you may be entitled to twice the compensation from the manufacturer should a civil trial find in your favor. However, before you go through legal counsel, just save a little money and do your research on your lemon laws. It’s a tough job wading through all that car lemon law stuff, so pucker up and get busy making your own lemonade from that car lemon.

I’ve holidayed in some French alpine ski haunts such as Meribel, Les Grands Montets, Samoens and Le Tour, however in my experience through all our ski holidays Chamonix France has to be our number 1 place to go for ski holiday in France.

The place of birth of European alpine history and home to the stately Monte Bianco - at 4807m Europe’s most eminent peak - Chamonix town touts a superior historical snow record, a protracted snowboarding season (December-May), peerless steep telemarking, and views horizons to die for. Indeed Chamonix Mont Blanc France has an world reputation because it has more or less the most prominent, stimulating, and elating snowboarding on hand anyplace in the universe.

Chamonix Haute Savoie is huge and every bit as confusing, and this is before we reckon the adjoining skiing fields; for example Plateau de Beille, Isola 2000, Alpe d’Huez, Hautacam and Grand Massif.

The Cham Ski ski lift pass covers 7 Chamonix valley, and 16 territorial ski regions; on skiing upwards of 3843 metres, more than 300 bubbles, and 730 kilometres of skiing pistes - with the bulk of the snowboarding towns preceding 2040m. They supplies for each plane from initiates including professional skiers. See our snowboarding fields page for up to date look at all of the big domains: Auron, Brevent, Les Gets, Super Besse, Montroc and Les Arcs.

I’ve been wondering about mobile broadband lately, everything seems to be mobile broadband this mobile broadband that. What’s the big deal about? The debate appears to be whether mobile broadband will end up replacing fixed line broadband. To be honest I see no reason why it won’t, although there remains the conviction that fixed line broadband still offers a better quality signal. Maybe this is why mobile broadband operators have jumped in on the band wagon too and are also now competing with the major ISPs for fixed line broadband customers. The continuing trend in the mobile broadband UK market for operators providing increased broadband speeds at the same time as price reductions for both mobile broadband and fixed line broadband is great, but not something that can continue for much longer. We all want the latest and newest technology; this costs money and has to be leveled against what customers are willing to pay. We don’t yet have the capability, or is it just the funding to enjoy the level of broadband speeds and signal quality that our friends in the Far East do, but there certainly does appear to be glints on the horizon of this availability in the UK sometime soon. However, until this happens I continue to ponder the issue of quality between mobile broadband and fixed line broadband and whether one will replace the other.

As a product liability professional, it is important that you know what Finite Element Analysis (FEA) can do for you. If you don’t, your adversary might. Whether you serve plaintiffs, defendants or both, you’re probably already familiar with FEA.

Simply put, if a loss, injury or death is due to something bending or breaking, FEA can help explain the failure.

An experienced FEA expert can determine the stresses and displacements in the failed part. When compared to industry standards, earlier designs and competitive designs, this often identifies the cause of failure, and hence the responsible party.

As in any field, your choice of an expert is important in making your case. It’s not unusual for an inexperienced FEA analyst to generate incorrect results; this is both a warning to the wise and a strategy for dealing with the other side’s expert.

FEA results lend themselves to color plots and animations, making conveying the key concepts to the jury much easier.

He has analyzed hundreds of product designs and has served as an expert witness across many industries, including giving depositions and court testimony.
