A fascinating incite into the workings of the law within the State of Georgia.The Jewell item particularly caught my interest since I was sitting in the departure lounge of Gatwick Airport waiting for a flight to Atlanta,when the news of a bomb explosion was announced.I distinctly remember American passengers being nervous.As the IRA had been bombing us for twenty years it didn't seem to concern me unduelly.Richard you site is well presented and covers issues that affect thw whole free world.Simon at TheRainbowBank

Whoa, this is terribly interesting! It seems like there is all of ethics material that is discussion-worthy floating around these days. In this day and time, anyway. Thank your for the Law Firm perspective. I especially enjoyed the article on what it means to defend someone that is guilty...Ooo, I feel a discussion rising...!

Good blog.
Getting thrown in jail for starting a food fight shows you how barking mad the law has become.We have seen also of late seen the rise in serious white collar crime.The average jury however is not qualified to make decisions on the subject,yet the results of their crimes are often horrendous.What is the solution?
