The First Steps In Preparing For Divorce Court

Posted on November 10, 2011 by admin

So you and your wife have officially decided to get a divorce.  Now that the decision has finally been made, what do you do next?

First, tell your children.  Share the information and be honest with them.  Start interviewing attorneys if you plan on using one, even if just as a co-counsel or legal coach.  Order information from the National Brotherhood of Fathers Rights to get a head-start on your ex-wife, and move your money around to where only you can get to it.  Now is the time to protect your assets!

Prepare other financial situations.  Know the family budget, file a Lis Pendens Lien on the family home (“Lawsuit pending,” which can help keep your wife from instantly taking the house through divorce court), and find out what property is considered community property or separate property.

Be the first to file divorce in order to classify as the Petitioner.  This will assist you in playing on the offense, not on the defense, during divorce court and can help tremendously when it comes to making points to the judge in your favor.  If your ex-wife beats you to the punch, you’ll want to file a counter petition.

Stay put in the house–don’t leave!  This puts the ex-wife at a huge advantage at keeping the house if you up and leave.  Work with her fairly, encourage mediation instead of court proceedings, and try to be cooperative with her.  Even if your case does end up going to court, you’ll look like the bigger “man,” per se, by stepping up and trying to handle the situation in the most responsible manner.

These are just a few of the things you can do to take the first step in your divorce.  Remember, this is just the beginning of what tends to be a long, drawn-out process through court, so have your paperwork and information together, respond quickly to deadlines and court dates, and be ready to fight for your father’s rights!

Marine Oil Water Separators

Posted on November 9, 2011 by admin

SkimOil,  built to order BRUTE Marine Oil Water Separators

Oil water separator equipment has been a shipboard requirement since the 1970’s, but recently it has become evident that oil water separators have not been as effective as had been assumed.  Actual and alleged improper operation (sometimes called a Magic Pipe) of this equipment by shipboard crews has resulted in criminal prosecutions of engine room crew members in the United States and to a lesser extent in Europe.

Oily bilge water is almost an unavoidable product in ship operations. Bilge water that is generated in proximity to shipboard equipment (such as in the engine room) often contains oil.  Direct discharge of this water would result in undesirable transfer of waste oil to the marine environment. By international agreement under the MARPOL convention, most commercial vessels need to be fitted with an oily water separator to remove oil contaminants before bilge water is pumped overboard.  Overboard oil discharge is illegal.

The international shipping community in general, began requiring new ships and ships replacing separators (over 400 tons) to meet the new IMO MEPC 107(49) requirements in January of 2005.  This regulation requires removal of not only free oil as the previous regulation did, but also what is called “fluid C” or what is generally accepted and defined as “emulsions”.  SkimOil’s BRUTE  marine oil water separator is a rugged yet simple oil water separator, built from the ground up with quality components, in an ASME code shop to very tight standards.  New controls  technology make reliable automatic HOA operations a reality. These BRUTE separators meet all IMO/MEPC 107 (49) requirements  (USCG ABS/BV certified)  with a tough, simple, efficient and well built (in USA) marine oil water separator system.

Oil content monitors are now required to track results of separation.  This new requirement significantly raised the price of a bilge separator and limited the separators to choose from.  The BRUTE Series 107 marine oil separator, brings the toughest, most  practical and economical system available today to meet this new requirement.  The BRUTE separator filter exchange program makes it easy to replace and dispose of spent filters.  The filter media used is generic and readily available throughout North and South America.  

The new IMO MEPC 107(49) requirements do require that the oil content monitors are able to detect EVEN emulsified oils, reducing possible “illegal discharge of oils” over and above the 15 ppm limits.  Even for those not mandated to comply with IMO/MEPC 107 (49), the BRUTE 107 Series separator system provides a level of insurance against “illegal-over limit discharges”.

SkimOil Inc, works with companies who have problems dealing with, handling or disposing of oily / dirty water, providing workable alternatives for their maintenance, pollution control, operational and special waste disposal problems.  SkimOil oil skimmers and oil water separators are used in over 40 countries across the world.  SkimOil Inc BRUTE marine oil water separator systems are built to specifically address individual problems, needs and requirements,  by using existing specialty, unique and innovative equipment or technologies, modified, configured or otherwise packaged into SkimOil systems built to fit your specific needs.  It is clear that the best choice for a safe and approved marine oil and water separator is SkimOil Inc BRUTE #BBOWS 107 Series separator systems.           

For more information about marine oil water separators by SkimOil Inc., please call (314) 579-9755, email at info@skimoil.com or see the separators online at: www.BRUTEows.com

The 20% Success Rate Of Settlement Letters In Divorce Court

Posted on November 9, 2011 by admin

Spiteful ex-wives are typical when it comes to divorce court.  Many women feel they have been used, neglected, or whatever else angers her about your marriage, and this can create a little hostility when things start heading towards the courtroom.  But sometimes, you can find that silver lining, and you can actually end an entire courtroom battle with a few simple letters to your ex-wife. 

It sounds too easy.  But the success rate I have found–about 18%–has shown that this inexpensive, appropriate manner of settling divorce issues has some proven results.  Though seemingly few, it’s a great chance to take in order to avoid paying outrageous attorney fees, court fees, and other fees necessary to get your divorce agreement heard in court.   

Judges love it when couples are able to negotiate and mediate their issues outside of the courtroom–with all the divorce hearings these judges deal with, the last thing they want is another bickering couple in their courtroom hashing out emotional details of their marriage without dealing with the real problem at hand.  And by being the bigger man and sending settlement letters to your ex-wife throughout the court process, you will show your judge that you are willing to keep things friendly and out of the courts.   

If you send one settlement letter near the beginning of the divorce proceedings, you may not get a response from your ex-wife.  But don’t give up.  Every few weeks, during court proceedings, you’ll want to send another letter.  And keep doing it–you never know when she’ll finally give in.

I don’t know about you, but a 20% chance of avoiding divorce court altogether at the cost of a few postage stamps sounds like a chance worth taking to me!

With so many attorneys practicing law in Riverside County California, how do you find the right Riverside County divorce attorney or Riverside County divorce lawyer who can help you with your particular divorce case and/or child custody case?

First, an experienced Riverside County divorce attorney or Riverside County divorce lawyer should have experience and legal expertise in the field of family law. Family law covers a variety of topics such as divorce or dissolution of marriage, paternity, domestic partnerships, child custody and visitation, domestic violence, restraining orders, spousal support, child support, guardianship, adoptions, community property, division of property, and more. Some Riverside County divorce attorneys may specialize or have more experience than others in specific areas of family law. For example, some Riverside County attorneys are certified by the State Bar of California or an organization accredited by the State Bar of California as a specialist in the field of family law. Currently, Riverside County has approximately a dozen Certified Family Law Specialists (CFLS) registered with the State Bar of California. These Riverside County attorney’s have made efforts to become State Bar certified in the field of family law. In other words, of over 4,000 Riverside County attorneys in California, only a dozen are Certified Family Law Specialists (CFLS). However, just because a Riverside County attorney is not a Certified Family Law Specialist does not mean he/she is not qualified and/or experienced to handle a Riverside County family law, divorce and/or child custody case. In fact, there are many well-qualified Riverside County attorneys or Riverside County lawyers who do not hold State Bar certifications. If you are searching for a Riverside County divorce attorney or Riverside County divorce lawyer and you do not know what to look for or where to begin, narrowing down your search to only those who practice family law in Riverside County may be a good place to begin.

Further, an experienced Riverside County divorce attorney or Riverside County divorce lawyer should have success representing clients on child custody and divorce cases in Riverside County. He/she will likely be familiar with the judges, processes, and procedures in the Riverside County family court which an attorney outside of Riverside County may not have. However, just because an attorney or lawyer is not located in Riverside County California does not mean he/she is not qualified and/or experienced to represent you on a family law, divorce, or child custody case in Riverside County. Ultimately, if you have a child custody and/or divorce case in Riverside County, you will want to investigate any prospective attorney’s background and experience and choose the right divorce attorney or divorce lawyer you believe can help you with your Riverside divorce case and legal need.

Fathers Rights and Paternity–Establishing Parentage

Posted on October 28, 2011 by admin

Establishing yourself as the father beyond a shadow of a doubt is often necessary in custody or child support issues. Many times the mother or the state is trying to prove a man is the father for reasons of child support. But there are situations where you may want to prove you are the father so you can claim your rights as a father. This is going to be very important to you if you are an unwed father who wants to take part in your child’s life, and the mother isn’t interested.

Claiming Your Rights

Claiming your rights is the main reason you would want to pursue paternity case if this is your situation. If you aren’t worried about it because your name is on the birth certificate, you may want to start worrying. That means nothing when it comes to rights as a father.  It means you can pay child support but doesn’t mean you can see the child. You can expect to be at the whim of the mom if you are a single father. If she doesn’t want you to see the child, you won’t.

Take the Right Steps

If your goal is to have a place in your child’s life, there are things you can do to see that your paternity is firmly established. You deserve the right to have part in your child’s life whether you were married or whether you only had a vacation romance with the mother.

This is just a few tips to establishing parentage, and be sure to check my other articles for more further, in-depth information to help you with your paternity issues!

Top 8 Arguments That Don’t Work In Ri Family Court! Judges Have Heard It A Million Times !

Posted on October 25, 2011 by admin

Top 8 arguments that typically do not work in Family Court in Rhode Island (RI). I also seriously doubt that  they work anywhere else! Article by a Rhode Island divorce and family law lawyer. This article applies to all family law cases including divorce, child custody, child visitation and paternity cases

#1.  If I allow him visitation,  he is going to kidnap my children.

This argument typically does not work because the judges have heard it a million times before.  This argument is based on rank speculation. If the judge did not allow visitation solely based on an unsubstantiated allegation of hypothetical child kidnapping then it would be too easy to deprive a person of visitation. Furthermore, courts cannot issue orders based on hypotheticals.  All that the court can do is issue an order. 

The Rhode Island Family court is  usually willing to issue an order that the party cannot permanently remove the minor child from the state of Rhode Island.  In some instances the court will issue a restraining order against out of  state travel for significant periods of time without prior consent.

If there is evidence that the person may take off with the children then this argument might be taken seriously. 

#2.  The child is so young that the child needs to wake up in my house Christmas morning to open the  Christmas presents. 

This argument typically does not work  because the judges have heard it a million times before.  This is an argument based on emotion. Judges typically believe that the parents  should alternate Christmas visitation.  However some judges may be sympathetic to a very young child  between the ages of 3-7 waking up at the house where they live on Christmas morning.

#3.  Even though the drug test was negative, he must  have taken supplements or drank a lot of water because he  is still using drugs.

This argument typically does not work. The Rhode Island Family Court has a drug testing facility.  The judges believe that the testing procedure at that facility is accurate and therefore must rely on it. 

This argument is usually based on rank speculation.  Unless a person has actual evidence that the person is cheating the drug test than this argument will usually fall on deaf ears.

#4. He doesn’t even know how to change a diaper.
 
The judges figure that he will figure it out. Every new parent must learn how to change diapers.

#5. He is seeking visits to get back at me, he does not really want visitation.

This usually cannot be proved and frankly the judges are sick and tired of this argument.

#6. I just use drugs occasionally and its only marijuana.

Drug are drugs to  family Court Judges! Any Illegal drug use is grounds for taking the children from the parent with physical custody and placing them with the other parent. Drug use could also lead the Court to order that all future visitation with the minor children be supervised visits.

#7. The only reason he wants visitation is so his parents can visit with the children

Unless you can prove that he does not spend time with the children and his parents spend all the time with them during visits then this argument will not work!

#8. He has not paid his child support so he should not have visitation with the child!

The Courts are not willing to punish the children by disallowing visitation because a parent is in arrears in  payment of child support. Nonpayment of child support is not a reason to suspend visitation!

Rhode Island Attorneys legal Notice per  RI Rules of Professional Responsibility:

The Rhode Island Supreme Court licenses all lawyers  in the general practice of law, but does not license or certify any lawyer / attorney as an expert or specialist in any field of practice.

Advantages of being represented by a Personal Injury Attorney

Posted on October 24, 2011 by admin

Personal injury refers to an injury to your body, emotions or mind but not to your property. For example, if you fall in a grocery store by slipping on a banana peel, personal injury would refer to your physical harm, that is, bruises or broken leg but not to the damage to your watch.

A Personal Injury Lawsuit is basically a legal case where a company or person is sued by another person for compensation to cover mental and physical damages. There are mainly five kinds of such injury cases, like:

1.    Bodily Injury - The injury of the victim is due to behavior of another person, company or property owner.

2.    Injury to Reputation - It refers to the situation where the reputation of the plaintiff has suffered harm and it led to actual economic or physical damages.

3.    Product Liability - It refers to the injury due to the assembly or design of a product. This includes breach of warranty which is the seller’s failure to fulfill the terms of a promise or making false claims about the product’s type or quality.

4.    Economic Injury - In some cases, personal injury is due to economic damages like the negligent behavior of a person can reduce the value of your property and this is considered to be an economic injury.

5.    Intentional Injury - In this case, the injury is done on purpose and usually, battery and assault comes under this classification.

]]>

The Requirement of a Personal Injury Lawyer

A personal injury lawyer can help you in filing a lawsuit depending on whether the injury is accidental, intentional or a result of a faulty product. Since the goal of both yours and the defendant’s insurance companies is to make a profit, the help of an experienced lawyer is required. They will not only help you in building your case in a strong manner but will negotiate with the insurance company, on your behalf.

The Advantages of Hiring Attorneys

There are a number of advantages of being represented by a Personal Injury Attorney such as:

-    The first advantage is that the attorneys are well aware of the personal injury law. They are also capable of considering the feasible claims to which the individual is entitled. Getting injured does not give someone the right to compensation. Contributory negligence is acknowledged by many states which means that in an automobile accident, the victim somewhat contributed to it and hence, they are not entitled to compensation.

-    Since, experienced and skilled attorneys have dealt with numerous such situations, they are aware of the worth of the injuries. They also know the details that might reduce or improve the compensation’s quantity to which you are entitled. They also prevent you from the hands of the insurance cover adjusters who might misrepresent the worth of the personal injury to which you are entitled.

-    Since the injury lawyer understands personal coverage law in a better manner, he might help you in obtaining more compensation, if it deems suitable.

-    When you are represented by an attorney, the insurance coverage adjusters are likely to provide much more compensation. If you are backing out for the lawyer charges, keep in mind that due to their efforts, you can receive more than sufficient claims for personal injury and it might offset the lawyer charge.

-    If a case reaches court, the insurance coverage business might spend a great deal more than intended. If you are representing yourself, it is likely that you would not be able to visit court but your attorney can easily visit court. This will make the adjusters more reasonable while offering a compensation for your personal injuries.

Though hiring an attorney to file your case does not always ensure larger settlement, you are likely to get a settlement that would reflect your case’s true value. Whenever, you suffer from any sort of personal injury and want compensation for it, make sure you avail a personal injury attorney so that you can have the benefits of having an attorney at your side.
