BATNA – “Best Alternative to Negotiated Agreement”
I was just introduced to the term BATNA – or “best alternative to negotiated agreement”. In short, as a prelude to negotiating a deal, you evaluate what your best alternative is if you can make no deal at all. This helps you determine the lowest possible offer that you will accept. Now, as you dig […]
Have you received a medical bill for services relating to a workers compensation covered injury? (in Indiana)
If you live in Indiana and have received a bill for medical services relating to an injury covered by workers compensation, please call me. Legally you should not be getting this type of bill. (Unfortunately, we can’t do cases for people outside of Indiana.)
A free alternative to Home Title Lock?
Back in 2018, I made a blog post about Home Title Lock, a company I had heard about on Sirius/XM radio. The gist of my post is that based on my experience, I thought the company was exaggerating the problem of fraudulent deed recordings. Since then, I’ve been contacted by a couple of reporters who […]
Legal Fees in Perspective $2,750 vs $2.75 million – Bill Cosby
A news story today that Bill Cosby still owes $2.75 million in legal fees. We have no idea how much he paid over time, but there is no question that Bill Cosby was not a poor man going into his criminal case, I would expect that the unpaid balance is less than half of what […]
You can’t run a national economy with half of your workers stuck at home and not producing – OR CAN YOU?
Here we are about a month into the recognized part of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, and we are looking at at least a month and a half of “social distancing”, and ironically, the more successful we are at social distancing, the longer the economic disruptions will last before there is “herd immunity.” […]

According to news reports, Peloton is offering to swap a Flywheel bike for a refurbished one. Buyers of Flywheel bikes who bought them new need to know that their bikes had an […]
Skype Unauthorized Charges
I have repeatedly had problems with Skype imposing unauthorized charges on my credit card. Once you sign up for anything with Skype it is crazily difficult to cancel and make it stick. It is worse than the old America Online. I googled “Skype” plus “Unauthorized charges” and it came up with 121,000 hits. Skype is […]
Congratulations to Ron Burdge on $500,000 RV verdict
My friend, RV and Lemon Law lawyer extraordinaire, Ron Burdge, won a $500,000 jury verdict against Winnebago in July 2019. I am not taking RV cases now, and a big reason is that these cases take years to resolve and can involve commitment of hundreds of thousands of dollars into the litigation. That money either […]
Facing a Serious Illness? – Get a Power of Attorney
I had clients, a husband and wife, whom I represented in a large business case. While the case was pending, when there was a chance to settle the case, both clients became unavailable due to health reasons. If they had planned ahead and executed a durable power of attorney, one of their children could have […]
