Russian oligarchs' taste for British justice helped London lawyers rake in a record-breaking 5bn of profits last year.
When the lawyers have totted up all the hours spent on the four-month long High Court battle it is expected to rank among the most expensive cases to have been fought in London courts. And Abramovich vs Berezovsky is just one of a slew of oligarch battles making their way through London's legal system, and turning the lawyers involved into multi-millionaires.
Mark McAteer, national editor of Legal Business magazine, said the Russian legal battles have helped push the profits at top 100 law firms in the Capital to more than 5bn for the first time ever.
Litigation for Russian clients has been a massive source of revenue for a number of firms – both big firms and boutique firms, he said.
McAteer said Russians prefer to have their cases heard in the UK because they approve of the system of usually having a fair playing field and we have

labour
The changes, if approved by Parliament, will be the biggest economic reform, but it is likely to meet stiff opposition in Parliament and from labour activists.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is preparing to launch India s biggest overhaul of labour laws since independence in a bid to create millions of manufacturing jobs, at the risk of stirring up a political backlash that could block other critical reforms.
Three officials at the federal labour ministry told Reuters that the ministry was drafting a bill for the upcoming parliamentary session that proposes to loosen strict hire-and-fire rules and make it tougher for workers to form unions.
The changes, if approved by Parliament, will be the biggest economic reform since India opened its economy in 1991, but it is likely to meet stiff opposition in Parliament and from labour activists.

#Landlord and Tenant Law - Real Estate Center
What is Landlord Tenant Law?
Landlord Tenant Laws regulate the relationship between one who owns real property (i.e. land, houses, buildings, etc.) and those to whom he or she gives certain rights of use and possession. Landlord tenant laws grew out of the English Common Law, and contains elements of both real property law and contracts, though most jurisdictions have added a number of more modern considerations, as well.
Residential and Commercial Leases
Many jurisdictions vary widely in their application of landlord tenant law based on the type of tenant. A residential tenant is one who seeks to take up personal occupancy in the premises for purposes of using it as a home. A commercial tenant is usually a business that takes up possession of the property for purposes of carrying on some form of commercial, retail, or industrial pursuit. Given the different values associated with each type o

#President Ford Signing ERISA of 1974
President Ford Signing ERISA of 1974
Statement by President Gerald R. Ford Upon Signing the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
September 2, 1974
Dramatic growth in recent years has thrust private pension plans into a central role in determining how older Americans live in their retirement years.
From 1960 to 1970, private pension coverage increased from 21.2 million employees to approximately 30 million workers. During this same period, assets of these private plans increased from $52 billion to $138 billion. And they are now increasing at a rate of $12-15 billion a year. It will not be long before such assets become the largest source of capital in our economy.
Yet, this same growth in pension plans has brought with it a host of new problems. Many workers have ultimately lost their benefits - even after relatively long service - because when they left jobs, they thereby gave up ri

#President Obama Backs Two-Year Law Degree - Law Blog
Barack Obama
Associated Press President Barack Obama at the University at Buffalo on Thursday.
President Barack Obama on Friday said he supports the idea of shortening law school to two years, taking sides on one of the most divisive issues confronting the legal education world.
The president floated the idea in an apparently off-the-cuff remark at a town-hall meeting at Binghamton University during an upstate tour to promote education tuition reforms.
The idea of lopping off a year of law school has gained currency with practicing lawyers and some scholars as law schools struggle to convince students that getting a law degree is worth the burden of debt.
“This is probably controversial to say, but what the heck? I’m in my second term, so I can say it,” said Mr. Obama, a graduate of Harvard Law School. “I believe, for example, that law schools would probably be wise to think about being

Becoming an attorney through an online law program is possible, but it's also complicated. Blend Images - Jon Feingersh / Brand X Pictures / Getty Images
Would you like to earn an online law degree from the comfort of your own home? It’s not easy, but it is possible. Earning an online law degree poses several unique challenges. No online law school is accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA); however, forty-nine states require that law school graduates earn a degree accredited by the ABA in order to take the bar exam needed to practice law.
California is the one state that allows graduates from distance learning law schools to sit for their bar, assuming the examinees meet certain requirements.

#Law and Order: SVU Cartoonifies the Rolling Stone UVA Rape Debacle
Law and Order: SVU aired their take on the UVA rape case last night, in which a seemingly credible young woman says she was gang-raped by a hockey team at New York's fictional Hudson University. In the end—spoiler alert—her story (sort of) falls apart. In between, we got a mixture of smart observations about how rape allegations are handled in the media, and SVU's trademark corny, cringingly ham-handed and caricatured version of real events. Brace yourselves.
The episode begins with Detective Olivia Benson watching America's Worst Crimes, a super classy TV show which reenacts the young victim, Jane, getting gang-raped and interviews her in a room that is definitely not dark enough to hide her identity. The mayor's wife is watching the show too, and soon enough, the fictional NYPD is beating down the doors of AWC, trying to find the victim. (The real NYPD was so badly mishandling sexual ass

The Juris Doctor degree (J.D.) is conferred upon law students who pass a three-year J.D. program. In the United States, the degree usually requires at least three years of full-time coursework, and some schools offer part-time evening programs to accommodate working professionals.
The common coursework includes family law, criminal law, tax law, constitutional law, contract law, torts, civil procedure, and business law. Most schools offer a focused "track" program allowing law students to selectively focus on a particular field of law. These elective courses may be taken only after the mandatory coursework is completed. Typically, this is accomplished during the third year of law school. Most schools have legal clinics that offer focused instructional training combined with some real-word applications.
To obtain a law degree or J.D. you must have received a four-year undergraduate degree, and pre-law classes are not required. Most states require that practicing attor

#Law: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions): Raymond Wacks: 9780199214969: Books
Law underlies our society - it protects our rights, imposes duties on each of us, and establishes a framework for the conduct of almost every social, political, and economic activity. The punishment of crime, compensation of the injured, and the enforcement of contracts are merely some of the tasks of a modern legal system. It also strives to achieve justice, promote freedom, and protect our security.
The result is a system that, while it touches all of our daily lives, is properly understood by only a few, with its impenetrable jargon, obsolete procedures, and interminable stream of Byzantine statutes and judgments of the courts.
This clear, jargon-free Very Short Introduction aims to redress that balance, as it introduces the essentials of law and legal systems in a lively, accessible, and stimulating manner. Explaining the main concepts, terms, and processes o

Rental car laws vary from state to state, so it is important to understand the laws that apply to the state you are planning to visit and rent your car in.
It almost goes without saying that all drivers who will be driving the rental car will need a valid driver's license. This does not include learner's permits. Foreign nationals may use their international driver's license, if they have one. If you wish to use your license from your home country, you will most likely also need to produce your passport and additional identification. Make sure to check with the rental company before you arrive in order to make sure you bring what you need.
In New York, anyone over the age of 18 may rent a car, as long as they have a valid driver's license and insurance. Any extra costs for insuring you as a younger driver may be passed to you in the price of the rental itself as car rental companies are permitted to charge different rates depending on the age of the person renting th

Twelve U.S. states recognize common-law marriage: Alabama, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Montana, New Hampshire (but only for inheritance purposes), Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas and Utah. The District of Columbia also recognizes common-law marriage.
Unless all four of the above statements are true, there isn't a common-law marriage. Just like in a conventional marriage, when a common-law marriage exists, a couple must go through the same formal divorce process to end the marriage.
Family Law Free Advice states that if a couple move from a state that recognizes common-law marriage to a state that doesn't, the new state will usually recognize the marriage. That means that if a couple lived in Montana, where their common- law marriage was recognized, and they move to California, California will most likely recognize the couple as being married.
