Howdy T-burg folks! I've been set back a bit with health issues, but Otis & I will be in the area playing catch up with clients Thursday & Friday (22nd & 23rd). Possibly Wednesday night if the need arises. Shout out by phone or PM if you need to meet up & we'll figure something out. Ciao!

Attention four legged friends!

To all of my friends, colleagues, and clients:

As you already know we are dealing with an extreme situation with COVID and the mixed messages we receive from sources offer little comfort and no solutions. For the foreseeable future, I cannot meet with you at my home, nor at my office, which is directly behind my home. As a "country lawyer" it is not unusual for folks to just show up without an appointment. Please don't do that until further notice. Phone or video calls only, for the time being, but I am sure this situation shall pass and we can resume...

For clients with open civil cases, I cannot offer any prediction about when your situation can be resolved as at the moment, it will be up to how each individual court can, or will, act. NY courts are currently shut down on every level: state, county, city, town, village, but there are a few exceptions that relate to emergency situations.

Documents requiring signatures will be delivered to your mailbox, either by me or by USPO, I will not greet you or enter your home, or we can exchange them at my street mailbox. If they must be notarized, well, that may be a bit different, but we can work that out. It's quite likely that I have regular clients' signatures on file.

For more information you can contact me by phone at 607-592-4585. While I do respond to text messages, that is not preferred. A one minute phone conversation can turn into a half-hour sentence-by-sentence exchange by text. Not a great idea.

OK, it goes like this: FB keeps hounding me to buy eyeballs. So do a lot of others...you know, yellow pages and print advertisers and such. And a few have asked "What's up with your web page and related issues?" So here are the answers:

I run my own private server. It's a Linux box upstairs in my house, adjacent to my office, and I own my own domains. Why? Because when I discuss and share legal information, maybe your information, I don't want it stored on "the great Internet cloud". Of course it gets passed router to router but eventually it ends up here & I keep it at home and protect it. If you want to throw your personal information out to yahoo or google that's your choice. I won't.

My server died a year or so ago and I had to replace it. I just haven't had the time to get the web page back up. I work 24x7. Hopefully, sometime this summer, I'll be able to steal a day or two to upgrade my Linux OS and get the web site back online, as minimal as it always has been.

I have a different kind of business model, and it works for me. My main goal is to ensure that friends, family, neighbors, and clients are well represented, regardless of their ability to pay. That's my promise.
