IS MY SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY INCOME AFFECTED BY WORKER'S COMPENSATION INCOME BENEFITS?

YES

CAN I STOP OR REDUCE THIS REDUCTION TO MY SOCIAL SECURITY?

YES

Marketing for Public Relations and Top of the Mind Awareness

Hello Friends

Marketing is important and can be fun!

One idea that we use at our law firm is 100% in line with what all marketing companies suggest, build relationships and keep top of the mind awareness (TOMA); is through a company called Send Out Cards.

You may want to share this idea with your office manager.

We have replaced many of our basic "new caller" and "client letters" with color picture greeting cards. It costs less than letter head and office envelopes.

This can be automated and yet still look very personal and professional.

No need to worry.

Did you know....

The Offical Code of Georgia: O.C.G.A. § 33-9-40 Prohibits insurance companies from increasing premiums or cancelling policies where insured is not at fault and uses Medpay or UM (uninsured and underinsured motorist)coverage.

The insurance company can refuse to renew on these grounds,but cannot cancel policy.

TITLE 33. INSURANCE

O.C.G.A. § 33-9-40 (2006)

JUSTICE AND DECENCY IS

Justice is not the will of the few and it's not the will of the many.

Justice is not politics.

Justice is the law.

And the law is man's feeble attempt to set down the
principles of decency.

Decency!

And decency is not a deal.
Or an angle,or a contract, or hustle or a campaign or a trick or a bid for sympathy.

Decency is not the beast that bays for money, power, dominion, position, votes and blood!

Decency is what your grandmother taught you!

Decency is in your bones!
