On CT Probate Court Reform and Taxing Legal Services

By Ryan McKeen
I love those new light bulbs, you know, the spiral kind.  Their packaging tells me that I can save $120 a year or something if I replace my old fashioned light bulbs. Having changed out my bulbs – they’re not kidding, I do save money on my monthly electric bill.
The problem is to [...]

I’ll Take Superior Court Probate Mediation For $1,000, Alex

I hope that you have had a happy and safe holiday season.
Here at A Connecticut Law Blog, I’m ready to hit the ground running in 2009. The Pats aren’t in the playoffs, truck day is still 5 weeks away, and I’m feeling energized.
This post comes from a merger of two ideas. First, as Rick Green [...]

Telephone & Cable Installation Fees For Connecticut Nursing Home Residents

Residents in nursing homes may often change rooms for a number of reasons including roommate disputes.
Now they’ll have a few less things to worry about.
On October 1, 2008, PA 08-115 went into effect which prohibits telephone and cable operators from charging an installation fee when a resident changes rooms within a facility.
The problem with this act [...]

Monogramming Dentures: Not A Fashion Statement, A New Connecticut Law

Connecticut has laws about everything and as of yesterday we have more laws about more things.
I’ve taken great pleasure in writing about ”interesting” Connecticut laws in this blog. Fortunately, there is no shortage of material.
I’m pleased to write that this past legislative session generated more laws. Earth shattering news, I know.

Yesterday, John McCain suspended his campaign and asked Barack Obama to postpone the first Presidential debate.

This had me thinking, if John McCain were a Connecticut resident, what could he decline to do?
For starters: jury duty.
In Connecticut, a person 70 years or older can choose not to serve on a jury if called. Conn. Gen. Stat. [...]

Seniors And The Law Day In Connecticut

Our legal system is important. If you think of society as a house the legal system is the foundation.
One of the purposes of this blog is to inform the public as to how our legal system in Connecticut impacts everyday life. I like to think that law is everywhere and it is. From scenic roads to [...]

Sarah Palin: A Historic Choice

I’ve blogged about the lack of women serving on the Supreme Court.
I’m happy that John McCain has selected a woman as his vice-presidential running mate.

Looking Out For Fido (Leaving Things In Your Will To Your Pets In Connecticut)

I like to generate content in this blog. Those are my best entries but sometimes the practice of law eats into the time I have to write the original content that I enjoy bringing you.
So sometimes in this blog, I’m like Pompey. Pompey was my pet parakeet. Not only was he the best parakeet ever….he [...]

by Attorney Ryan McKeen
Sometimes, I get contacted by bloggers who want me to link to his or her site. As you can see, I don’t link to many sites on this blog.
For me, I treat linking to someone’s blog like recommending a restaurant to a friend. I don’t want to send my friends to places that are [...]

    I'd like to thank you for reading this blog, my firm for supporting my blogging efforts, and my team of editors (my mom) for correcting some of my mistakes. I get a number of requests to add blogs to my blogroll. I have no problem doing this if I like your blog. By like I mean, I do not add links from ads that pose as blogs. Thanks again. I hope you enjoy my efforts.
