ShareWith the beginning of Spring I thought it was a good time to discuss New York’s Boating Laws. Not such an easy topic. Our statute is complicated. The one thing I can say without a doubt, wear your life jacket at all times. It’s not only the law, but it can save your life. Next week, part 2, “Personal Water Crafts”, aka Wave Runners.

ShareWe had a great show last night. Thanks so much to Ken Small and Tim Sarraille, of BronxWorks for being our guests. The topic: the 2010 Census, and why it is so important that the residents of the Bronx be counted. From a legal perspective, the forms can be controversial, but neverless should be completed!

ShareOn “Open” this morning I was able to tackle some of the common misconceptions surrounding Living Wills. The best tip I can give: If you do decide to have one, make sure you couple it with a Health Care Proxy!

ShareWe had a great show last night on BronxLegal. We discussed the current topic: legalizing medical marijuana. On the show was an organization that stands for promoting policies that help reduce the harms and misuse of drugs. The organization also stands fordrug prohibition. Thank you so much to Tony Newman, the Director of Media Relations for the Drug Policy Alliance, for coming on the show.
