		<title>Leaving It To the Court to Decide</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This story has been told by judges and family division masters in Montgomery County many times but it bears repeating. A couple stands before the judge in a highly disputed child custody case. The judge turns to the mother and says, &#8220;Ma’am, do you love your child?&#8221; To which she replies, &#8220;Of course I do!&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Are You Really in Good Hands with Your Insurance Company?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For sure, car insurance and car insurance companies are a necessary evil. You would be foolish, and in this state illegal, to operate a motor vehicle without insurance. In the event of an accident, and in particular a major accident, you need the insurance coverage to pay for your property damage to your car and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Can I Change My Name Back in My Divorce?</title>

		<title>Two Powerful Women</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am struck by the fact that the two most recent appointments to the judicial bench, at least to me and my little practice, have been powerful women. At the national level, Judge Sonia Sotomayor will be sworn in this Saturday as the Supreme Court&#8217;s 111th justice, third woman and first nominee by a Democrat [...]]]></description>

		<title>When Will I Become Jaded?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sure it will come at some point. Listening to all of my esteemed colleagues, who have been practicing far longer than I have, moan and groan about the system and about judges in particular, makes me wonder when I will become equally jaded.

		<title>Should You Settle Your Case?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Like most legal questions, the answer is generally it depends. My practice concentrates on two primary areas of law: family law (divorces, child custody) and personal injury law (automobile accidents, slip &#38; falls). Settling the case means different things in each discipline but generally it refers to resolving the issue without have the court make [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twittering Lawyers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jeff Richardson publishes a great blog on the intersection of two of my favorite themes: the iPhone and lawyering. While I disagree with his position on the use of Twitter by attorneys, it is easy to understand why he feels that way. One can easily be distracted by the pull of these social networks.
