A French Consul, A Doctor and Icy Bridges

Legal experienceBy Russell HarrellNovember 12, 2021

Apalachicola, Florida is a seaside city in the Florida panhandle.  With a population of approximately 2,410, one might not expect it to be the location of an event of lasting import but it is.  In the nineteenth-century, the town was a bustling port city.  Due to the importance of the city in international trade, many…

What’s In a Name? Naming a Baby or a Company … There is Much to Consider

Legal experience, ContractsBy Russell HarrellNovember 10, 2021

When I was a kid, I met a jovial gentleman whose parents legally named him “Fat Boy”.  When I giggled and told him I did not believe him, the gent proudly produced his drivers license and that indeed was his name.  He explained he was born a big baby and that is what they named…

Don’t Be a Nore. Poor Communication Can Lead to Lost Opportunities and Legal Problems

Legal experience, ContractsBy Russell HarrellNovember 5, 2021

What is a nore? To my knowledge the term only refers to a bank of sand in the Thames estuary in England. Historically it has proven to be a nasty little obstacle for ship navigation.   However, I have given the term a new meaning.   I use it as shorthand for those who ignore and fail…

Corpo Speak vs. Contractual Language

Legal experience, ContractsBy Russell HarrellNovember 2, 2021

I remember a time when it was fairly easy to figure out what line of business a person was in.  It was quite easy to do because they would tell you if they were a butcher, a baker or a candlestick maker. In today’s world making such a determination can be more difficult due to…

Rambling Through Reykjavik – A Discussion on Products Liability Law

Legal experienceBy Russell HarrellOctober 8, 2021

I will never forget when I took my first breath of Icelandic air.  I landed in Kaflavik airport early one morning on a very cold day in March.  When I exited the terminal in route to my rental car I was hit with a freezing burst of artic air.  It cut through my coat like…

Why Marriage Matters in the Law

Legal experience, Insurance claimsBy Russell HarrellOctober 8, 2021

Years ago, I remember a television interview where a hipster explained why he and his longtime girlfriend lived together rather than being married.  He said “man, we do not need a piece of paper to prove our love”.  Perhaps the dude is correct when it comes to conveying the couple’s amorous feelings to the world. …

In the Law – The Truth, Not “Their Truth” Prevails

Legal experience, FraudBy Russell HarrellOctober 3, 2021

Some years back, my wife and I were approached by a lady from abroad while traveling through an airport.  The lady mistook my wife for a popular actress.  When she approached us and said she was a fan, my wife graciously informed the lady she was mistaken.  However, I do not think the lady believed…

The Artist, Bananas, and Fraud

Legal experience, FraudBy Russell HarrellSeptember 28, 2021

To quote the late great football play by play radio announcer, the voice of the Georgia Bulldogs, Larry Munson “get the picture”.  February 1964. A cold day in Goteborg, Sweden.  Art connoisseurs are enjoying the opening of a new art exhibition inside the warm halls of a gallery.  The new works of artists from several…

Don’t Fly a Biplane into a Spitfire Fight

Legal experience, Insurance claimsBy Russell HarrellSeptember 22, 2021

The Battle of Britain was indeed one of the greatest turning points in world history.  The heroic pilots of the Royal Air Force saved the day and prevented the British Isles from being invaded by Germany.  Much has deservedly been said and written about this pivotal point in saving the free world.   In addition to…

All Exports Great and Small

Legal experience, ContractsBy Russell HarrellSeptember 16, 2021

The State of Georgia is an exporting powerhouse.  2019 marked a record year for Georgia’s exports to the world amounting to $41.2 Billion USD.  Despite the difficulties caused by the pandemic, Georgia again ranked in the top 10 states for exports in 2020 with $38.8 Billion USD worth of goods leaving our shores for customers…
