<strong>Solving</strong> <strong>Your</strong> <strong>21st</strong> <strong>Century</strong> <strong>Dilemmas</strong> <strong>With</strong> <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Help</strong> <strong>Of</strong> A <strong>Lawyer</strong>


When the law is mentioned, images of murder trails are what tend to come to<br />

mind. For most people, this is pretty much the scope of what it means to be a<br />

lawyer.<br />

But, homicides aren’t all there is to law. <strong>The</strong>re are many issues, especially family<br />

related ones, which may require the assistance of a lawyer. We’ll be talking about<br />

some of those issues here, and how they have become core problems in our<br />

current lifestyles.<br />

(1) <strong>The</strong> issues of divorce.<br />

Marriage today isn’t what it was a century ago. In the past, marriage was an<br />

institution that served to organize married life. Being mostly religious, the binds<br />

of marriage were showered with an element of sacred respect. Add to that the<br />

slow pace of life back then, and you had a pretty stable institution.<br />

<strong>With</strong> the institutions of marriage and religion playing a minimal role in today’s<br />

relationship culture, marriage has become more symbolic than practical. <strong>With</strong> the<br />

ease of starting and ending relationships, divorce rates have skyrocketed,<br />

reaching close to 60% in US territories for all first marriages.<br />

It’s a pretty appalling statistic… And because of that, proper law advisory services<br />

are required to solve issues related to spousal split-ups. After all, breaking apart<br />

isn’t all there is to ending a marriage. You have child custody, alimony, adoption<br />

custody problems, and property splitting.


(2) <strong>The</strong> issue of bankruptcy.<br />

We live in a society that adores use of leverage. Whether it be for consumerist<br />

reasons, or for business investments, the use of leverage has been a key<br />

component of driving 21 st century economies. Do take into consideration that<br />

without debt, we wouldn’t have finance sectors at all.<br />

<strong>Of</strong> course, debt has its problems. One may borrow or over-consume borrowed<br />

money, while lacking the ability to pay it back. This is especially a trouble that<br />

afflicts businesses, and is what is described as bankruptcy.<br />

It’s not an easy process where you simply go “Well, I can’t pay back, so excuse<br />

me”. Bankruptcy involves a lot of negotiations on your part with those who lent<br />

you money, in addition to paperwork. <strong>The</strong>se are all aspects which require the aid<br />

of an experienced lawyer.<br />

(3) <strong>The</strong> issue of estate planning.<br />

Being one of the most important sectors in the US economy (and the one<br />

responsible for the world financial crisis a few years back), planning estate<br />

control, especially for family, is very important.<br />

Ownership of real estate may belong to a business, or to an individual, but what<br />

happens if those legal entities disappear? Who gets the property?<br />

This is another issue, where having a lawyer is important. Proper planning of real<br />

estate control prevents future conflicts after the controlling party passes away or<br />

is dissolved.


Perfect. So where do I find a law consultancy firm to aid me with the<br />

previous issues?<br />

A perfect law firm specializing in all of the previous issues would be Island<br />

<strong>Lawyer</strong>s. As implied by the name, the firm operates mainly in the state of Hawaii.<br />

If you live there, checking out their services is highly recommended for you!
