The ABA Techshow was recently held at the Chicago Hilton located at 720 South Michigan Avenue. Even though the ABA got a discount on the normal room rate, it still cost attendees $199 per night.
While I was at the conference, I started speaking with someone who was attending who could not have afforded that rate. He [...]

April 22, 2009

I wrote earlier about using pipl and other sites for finding information about potential jurors and others — including discovering what federal and state political contributions they had made and which parties or candidates received their contributions.

You can browse the site’s archives by its 17 separate specialities, such as, for instance, cardiovascular/cardiothoracic, gastroenterology, neurological/neurosurgical, obgyn, and orthopaedics. You can also browse the archives by the name of the institution where the surgery [...]

Here’s an instantaneous way for lawyers (and others) to find someone’s age - - and it’s free. You can also immediately find their telephone number and address
