Fresh air justice.source
















You are the Lawyer and the the Prosecutor
the Plaintiff and the Defendant.
You are the suspect on the case
and the victim of the crime
You are the witness of the the justice
and the silent truth in the court

However, you are not the juror in the jury duty
the admissible evidence  on the trail
or the ruling of the sentence.
and you are certainly not the Judge.
there is just no way you are the Judge.

Lawyers telling stories

The intent of this blog is to provide some general information about law and some legal issues. It also intend to help international lawyer who are interested in the American law some tips about the US law school. Therefore, I looked for similar blogs that are run by law students or lawyers who are posting about different interesting topics.

 1- 3 Geeks and a Law Blog, is a blog run by three geeks, Toby,Greg and Sophia. They post regularly about topics that are related to law firm environment. What I found interesting is that they got the idea while they were having lunch when Sophia jumped in saying ""guys, we should start a blog! I can get it set up in 15 minutes,'' and she did. The blog also have some guest blogger. Toby, Greg and Sophia sat a rule to the blog which is writing about what interest them. "if the topic is of interest to you, then it is probably interesting to others."





a welcome From The Law Student

  2-Three Years of Death, is a blog run by a 3rd year law student, Kitty. Kitty posts about her journey through the law school. Even though she is studying different degree than the one I am seeking, the classes are the same which means that the feelings, stress and experience that she is having will be similar to what I will have soon. I like what she said about how to get through " I've learned the only way to get through, is to enjoy my life outside of school!" which I will do too :) Thanks Kitty.






Butterflyfish

3-Butterflyfish1, is a blog run by a lawyer who started studying law while she is a wife and a mom. Butterflyfish writes about different topics. She has an archive of her law school experience, she graduated in 2009. For me, what is so special about this blog is that I will be in similar situation as she was doing my Masters in law with two kids.


Reading these blogs will not only give you a hint of what life in law school is like but also will enhance your legal knowledge.

Law Does Not Protect Ignorance

Michigan Supreme Court, Lansing, MI
All rise please, this blog is now in session. If you are not familiar with this expression, then you absolutely need to read this blog, and if you are familiar with it, you will find many interesting legal related topics in this blog and you will learn new legal expressions and terms.

This is an educational blog intent to provide legal information in a simple way. First, it provides fundamental information about law for non-lawyers. In addition, it explains some steps to study law for international students coming to the US. It gives also some in-depth topics that interest international lawyers and scholars. 

The civil procedure is one of the topics that will be covered in this blog. For example, what jurisdiction does the federal courts have over civil cases ? is any case movable to the federal court or not ? 

Sleep well, drink a lot of water, and be prepared for a journey in the law field. Do not hesitate to comment, suggest or ask during the trip because your inquires will never be overruled.
