Note that I have established this site largely as a public service; I get little business from it, and it was largely established for lawyers who were constantly asking me for materials that I had published or otherwise disseminated. However, there are some articles of interest to the general public, particularly the nutshell series of articles. My only caution and condition for downloading or reading these materials is that I keep the copyright (though you are free to otherwise use them), and that YOU DO NOT RELY ON ANYTHING IN THEM. For one thing, many of the articles are dated by now, and the law changes too quickly for me to keep them all up-to-date. Secondly, they ARE NOT LEGAL ADVICE. Rather, they are in the nature of a periodical article. Legal advice consists of applying the law to the facts, and (a) I don’t know your facts, and (b) I HEREBY EXPRESSLY REPRESENT THAT THE LAW MAY BE OTHERWISE THAN AS STATED ON THIS WEBSITE or in any of the article found on it or found below. Fair enough? So proceed at your own risk. Having said all that, I would nevertheless hope that the articles may proved helpful, should you use them as a basis for asking questions of your lawyer or other professional advisor.
