Smart Lawyers to Blame for Stupid Product Warning Labels
It starts innocently enough. Business makes product. Customer uses product. Product does what it’s supposed to. Everybody’s happy.

Typos in Your Already Sent Law School Application Will Terrify
Today we have a guest post from Anna Ivey, founder of Ivey Consulting.
Typos. In very important missives. That you’ve already sent to very important people. Argh.
Everyone has been there at one time or another, including lawyers (which can be especially embarrassing). And, as you might be acutely aware, it happens to future lawyers, too. When you’ve been staring at the same thing six hundred times while you polished it, trying to get it just so, your eyes can start missing the little things. The irony.
