Hello friends! 👋🏾

I have transitioned to working full-time with a non-profit in the last few months and am no longer able to handle other legal matters.

That being said, Shaw Law & Associates, LLC is closed at this time.

Thank you for your support throughout the last year and a half, stay safe and stay warm!

Parents, we encourage you to try to work on better communication during the Coronavirus pandemic so as to ensure the best interests of the child are always at the forefront of your relationship.

Don't let you and your ex spouse's differences add to the stress. Children often feel the need to take on and solve the issues between their parents which result in the development of negative emotional coping mechanisms that will continue to affect them long after the virus has been contained.

Some brief DO's and DONT'S:

DO communicate civilly with the other parent
DO attempt to adjust your schedules accordingly
DO allow your child to spend time with their other parent whether virtually or physically, if safe

DON'T disparage the other parent or paint them in a negative light for not seeing the child
DON'T encourage the child to harbor ill will towards the other parent for the same
DON'T assume that parenting schedules are not subject to enforcement due to court closures. They are still hearing cases on an emergency basis.

As always, please stay civil, stay safe, and stay positive. ~

Unfortunately, this was expected. Ideally, one would hope that the Federal government would enact legislation to provide additional funding or enable those shutout from completing the application to receive some form of debt relief in an effort to further protect small businesses.

If you are looking for additional resources to keep your doors open during these trying times, don’t hesitate to reach out to me to discuss your options.

We’re literally all in this together, yet this too shall pass.

Short and sweet read. It is ALWAYS important to read whatever you sign, before you sign it (unless it’s a greeting card, but you still might want to read those too!).

It is very easy to get yourself into a contractual arrangement that benefits one party (not you) and makes it very hard for one party (you) to get out of the deal without suffering the consequences.

Additionally, it’s important that you understand what you’re reading. Reading and deciphering Legal language is often time-consuming and frustrating to the untrained eye.

Before you make a big decision and potentially sign away your rights or miss out on some money, give Shaw Law and Associates a “holler”.

Others do not bother demanding for contracts and appointment letters because they think all that matters is getting the job
