ESL Blogs

Today I feel like I want to be useful for the society, for EC, for the whole world. So, guys… as my field is law, I would like to give you some information, not to get into troubles, alright? Firstly, let me say that the main rule you should follow, when entering the law world, is to be careless CAREFUL and ATTENTIVE. You never know, who wants to use you, bully you, who is not trustworthy and who might cause that sooner or later you would go belly-up. However, people make the same mistakes over and over again just because "they didn't know" but remember please that not knowing is not an excuse, exactly like  the famous quote says: Ignorance (of the law) is no excuse.

Unfortunately many people are lazy to read. Not just here on EC, when it comes to longer blogs  (oops, pardon my digging side :-D ) but also in real life, which might cause them serious problems. Before signing any documment, please, be sure you have read the whole text and you have understood it. Later it might be too late to regret. Don't hesitate to ask and better make idiot of yourself and ask about each and every detail you don't understand several times than to sign something you disagreed with or didn't understand. Don't forget that contract can't be also signed under the unclear, disadvantegeous conditions or under duress - under the pressure. I am not talking here about some business contracts but about common things you come across in your daily life such as employement contract, dismissal (firing, sacking), housing contract, land contract, etc. I guess, I don't have to mention that all these documments should be in one place easily located at your home.

I do hope you are not yawning yet, so let me spice it up with something more interesting. Like some of you know even marriage is a business as you and your partner share and purchase things together, you know? However, many people don't know that it isn't just about property you buy but also about debts. So if your partner is broke, you are also down on the bottom with him/her because you are both responsible for your bad economical situation, no matter who caused it - at least according to our law. Just think long and hard before getting married, if you know your partner well enough to rely on him/her and trust him/her because to feel love is really very nice but sometimes brain is overshadowed and then... one would cry their eyes out.

As I work with dead people, ehm no I am not a gravedigger but I deal with the property after someone's death, I can tell you that reactions of some individuals will never stop shocking me. I won't talk here about greedy characters or figths between the siblings but about those, who left this world, those who died and now I have their files on the table. Some people had debts, they didn't care and borrowed more and more, others had many kids, were married more than once also didn't care to get their last will written. Others had property, lived with the spouse but had no idea that instead of spouse their kid they haven't seen for ages will inherit everything etc. I would be able to write novels about it… sad novels... just because people didn't bother themself to take action. I know that we don't plan to die but it is about fixing personal things.

Well, I know I came up with just few things, maybe important things, maybe something you don't care about, however if I should sum this little bit up, I think we should get our life in order, don't sign naively things we don't understand, be responsible for own actions, think long and hard before taking important decissions, use our instinct and brain… and maybe then our life won't be that messy … or do you want this?
