🏡 Does a $90,000 estate need probate? It depends on which side of the Red River you’re on.

In Fargo, a $90,000 estate made up of bank accounts with no named beneficiary can skip probate. In Moorhead, it can’t. North Dakota’s limit is $100,000, and Minnesota’s is $75,000. 👀

In our latest blog, attorney Kathryn Nekola explains when probate is necessary and how families can collect property without it when it isn’t.

Got served with legal papers? 📬 Don't ignore them!

Being served with a Summons and Complaint can be overwhelming, but how you respond matters. Failing to respond properly or within the required deadline could result in unintentionally admitting allegations or waiving your right to contest them. ⚖️

Liam Waugh, Civil & Commercial Litigation Attorney at SW&L Attorneys, explains why it's important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to understand your rights and options.

🚛 How much should a semi slow down on snow and ice?

Guidance in the commercial driver’s license manual says about one-third slower on wet roads, half the speed or less on packed snow, and a crawl or a full stop on ice. ❄️

Wondering if this could apply to you or someone you know? Our team is happy to talk it through.

One of our clients brought in this candy covered pumpkin, and we couldn’t wait to share it. We’re so lucky to work with the best clients.

🚨 What does a truck driver have to do when the roads turn icy?

A federal safety rule says drivers have to slow down when snow, ice, or fog make it hard to see or hard to grip the road. If it gets bad enough, they have to stop driving until it’s safe again. ❄️

The trucking company is expected to make sure that happens too, even if it means a late delivery. 🚛
