NC Law Blog is an online legal magazine by and for North Carolina lawyers. It is sponsored by the North Carolina Bar Association Center for Practice Management. The mastermind behind this blog is Erik Mazzone who helps lawyers learn how to run a law firm, which is NOT something we are taught in law school.

Recently, I began writing for the NC Law Blog (www.nclawblog.com). I say “recent” but I believe I have been contributing for about three or four months.

Generally my posts related to family law; however, the blog covers all aspects of NC law. Most of the authors have years of experience in his or her respective legal field. It is an interesting collection of information for attorneys and non-attorneys.

As I sit here typing up my submission for this month, I wanted to highlight this great resource. In the future, I will start reposting some of my blogs from this blog; however, I encourage everyone to check out this interesting and helpful resource.

Most breakups have a degree of hurt feelings, anger, and drama. Do you want your attorney to make these issues better or worse?

Yes, it feels good to know that your spouse was given a hard time for something that he or she did, but ultimately, does that get you any closer to your goals? Does it help you pay the bills? Does it help your kids?

As attorneys we are to zealously represent our clients, and you need to decide what that means to you. At our law firm, it means that we help our clients reach their goals in the most cost effective manner possible with consideration given to the client’s future. We do consider ourselves peacemakers, not pot stirrers.

Sometimes peacemakers cannot achieve peace, and the case must go to court. Does that mean we take a nuclear approach? No, we don’t. Quite frankly, most judges do not even appreciate that kind of approach. We get our job done in a respectful manner because that is the best way for our client to achieve their goals and embrace their new future.
