Bruce Law Firm August 2017

AUGUST’S BEST DEALS Back to School = Big Savings

To Strategize Divorce, Learn the Law You don’t need to go to law school to learn about divorce law — that’s my job — but a few of the basics can really help with your divorce. Like it or not, the law will govern your divorce. Learn it now, and you’ll benefit down the line. First, understand that there’s nothing new in your divorce case. There may be intricacies that apply to your specific situation, but odds are the law has contingencies to cover every single aspect of your case. A judge will decide whatever the law does not outline. Most of the disagreements, if any, will likely involve tussles over establishing facts (such as the value of an asset or the amount of someone’s actual or potential income). We like to avoid disagreements — they take time and, as you’re probably aware, time really is money — but if they come up, it’s good to understand how they’ll be addressed and what does (and does not) matter. Keep a notebook and write down questions you want to answer as you learn a bit about divorce law. Write down the answers, too. It’s good to be able to refer back, and writing them down helps you remember them. You’d be surprised at how much of this information you can learn by yourself, although again you want to avoid painstaking legal research that won’t help much. My advice? I have a webinar with all the basics you need to know for a successful divorce. Get the information you need in under an hour at brucepa.com/florida-divorce-law-guide . Does a friend or client have divorce questions? our divorce strategy book can help!

August is back-to-school season, and that means you’ll find plenty of items on sale — everything students and families need to start the new school year right. Retailers, both online and off, are vying for your dollar this month, and they know just how much families love to save. Here’s a sample of the items you’ll find on sale in August. Laptops Finding the perfect laptop for yourself or your kids might take a little research, but it’s research that will pay off in the form of big savings. You’ll find discounts at most retailers that offer laptops, including the manufacturers themselves. Apple, HP, Dell, and others typically offer incentives on top of discounts (such as gift cards), so it’s in your best interest to look around to find the deal that works for you. Storage Containers With millions of college students getting ready to head off to school, many retailers are taking advantage of the fact that these kids need a place to store all of their stuff. You, too, can take advantage of these sales to stock up on storage bins and boxes for just about any purpose, from food to clothing storage. In addition to storage containers, you’ll find many home organization products on sale, as well. Vehicles According to USAA, August is a great time to start shopping for a new vehicle. New-year model cars and trucks are trickling onto lots around the country, and dealerships are slightly more motivated to get rid of last year’s stock. Use this time to do research and browse dealer selection. For even more potential savings, USAA suggests visiting the dealership on a Monday or Tuesday and later in the day.
