Law Office of W. Andrew Arnold, P.C.,

Greenville Business Magazine has recognized Andy Arnold as one of the area’s Legal Elite in the practice of Labor and Employment Law.

Many a parent will grant a son or daughter the power of attorney to sign checks, sign contracts, make purchases, make gifts to others, and/or any combination of activities that are legally binding. Many times a lawyer’s power of attorney is a standard form, and unfortunately, most set a standard trap for the unwary.

I heard someone discussing the McDonald’s hot coffee case the other day, and like most folks, the speaker knew nothing about the real facts of that case. Regardless, this case still impacts the debate about reform of our civil justice system (i.e., tort reform). A new documentary, Hot Coffee, just released explores how the case has been misrepresented to advance the anti-civil justice agenda of big business, including the health care lobby. I thought this was a good time to help spread the truth about the facts of this case.
