PUT DOWN THE PHONE
With an endless supply of entertainment, technology and communication abilities at our fingertips, it seems almost impossible to detach ourselves from mobile devices for any significant period of time.

Medicaid and Reverse Mortgages: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
You or your parent may want to live at home as long as possible. But, that sometimes isn’t financially feasible due to the cost of in-home care.

Riparian Rights and Ownership in Michigan
There is something about water. There are those who own the waterfront, and the rest who want access to it. Unfortunately, they often clash.
