October is #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth, highlighting the importance of regular screenings and early detection. When breast cancer is missed or diagnosed too late, the consequences can be significant. If you believe this happened to you or a loved one, we are available to talk.
This year’s focus is lithium-ion battery safety. Charge on a hard surface, use an original or manufacturer-approved charger, and unplug once fully charged. When a fire involves a defective product or unsafe property condition, our personal injury team can help.
Ask for a lawyer in a police interview and the law only forces them to stop if you're in custody, measured by whether a reasonable innocent person would feel free to leave. A 'voluntary' label doesn't erase that test. Call us: 518-274-5820.

Days shorten and deer are most active in late October and early November. In New York, over 40% of deer crashes happen between October and December, primarily after dark. Use caution on tree-lined roads at dusk.

E-bikes and scooters are everywhere on campus now, quick, quiet, easy to underestimate.
A light, a helmet, a little care at the crosswalk. The work we do often starts with a crossing that went wrong. The easier version is the one where no one gets hurt.

The movies make it all closing arguments. The real work is quieter: the call returned on a hard day, the document read one more time, the client who leaves a little less worried than they arrived. That's most of it — and we wouldn't trade it.

Before it's a case file, it's a person, someone facing something they didn't expect.
The work has always come back to that one fact: behind every matter is a real person, and the job is to stand in their corner.

The first 24 hours after a serious accident shape more of what comes next than most people realize.
Worth knowing before you ever need to know it.
