LegalView.com Announces Its New, Free Legal Encyclopedia
LegalView is a new, easy to use, free legal-information resource, for ordinary people seeking information on legal issues and controversies. This new site provides general legal resources such as a legal dictionary and legal encyclopedia, in addition to information about specific legal issues such as mesothelioma and unsafe drugs.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) July 11, 2006 — LegalView.com today announces the addition of its new Legal Encyclopedia, based on Cornell University’s WEX Encyclopedia. The encyclopedia joins the Legal Dictionary, Legal Directory, and massive legal bookstore as part of a free “everything legal” service bringing legal information and legal resources to ordinary people.
LegalView provides two types of legal information. First, the general legal resources, allowing people to look up legal terms and legal definitions, and to seek legal information through a wide range of legal resources; LegalView’s directory includes many thousands of links to useful online resources, for instance, from legal publications and blogs, to lists of expert witnesses and paralegal services. It also contains a bookstore, with information about tens of thousands of law-related books.
Secondly, LegalView provides information about specific legal issues and legal controversies. For instance, LegalView’s mesothelioma area contains articles about this tragic disease, providing asbestos-related legal information, links to books about mesothelioma, recent press releases and newsfeeds about the subject, and more.
LegalView has information about almost a hundred such legal issues, from class action lawsuits, to unsafe products, from well-known legal controversies such as those related to Vioxx and Bausch and Lomb’s ReNu, to lesser known issues such as Benzene contamination. In each area articles written by LegalView.com’s staff explain the issues in simple terms, while additional, extensive information is provided in the form of press releases, newsfeeds, useful Web sites, government-related articles, and so on. Many of the legal issues also have associated videos, in which an attorney discusses background and details related to the issue. These are often confusing subjects of interest to many people; LegalView tries to cut through the clutter and confusion to help people find the information they need.
LegalView’s new Legal Encyclopedia contains information about many general legal terms and subjects, such as employment discrimination, affirmative action, and even the Geneva Conventions, currently a particularly topical subject. It joins the Legal Dictionary, which defines literally hundreds of legal terms. Just what does In Personam mean? What is a blawg? If your lawyer uses the term Stare decisis, what does he mean? These and many other questions are answered in LegalView’s legal dictionary.
The Legal Encyclopedia is just the latest addition; in the months to come LegalView will be growing, adding many different forms of law-related information, with the aim of helping people understand the law and the legal issues that affect them.

The Brayton Purcell Summer Fellowship at the East Bay Community Law Center
The East Bay Community Law Center (EBCLC) is pleased to announce the awarding of the third-annual Brayton Purcell Summer Fellowship at EBCLC. The partnership between the law firm of BRAYTON PURCELL LLP and EBCLC is part of a three-year commitment from the firm to provide summer employment opportunities for talented students from UC Berkeley School of Law and to deliver free, high-quality legal services to underrepresented Bay Area clients.
Berkeley, CA (PRWEB) July 15, 2009 — The East Bay Community Law Center (EBCLC) is pleased to announce the awarding of the third-annual Brayton Purcell Summer Fellowship at EBCLC. The partnership between the law firm of BRAYTON PURCELL LLP and EBCLC is part of a three-year commitment from the firm to provide summer employment opportunities for talented students from UC Berkeley School of Law and to deliver free, high-quality legal services to underrepresented Bay Area clients.
The ten-week Fellowship, which runs through Friday, July 31, 2009, supports Tania Valdez, a rising second-year student from Berkeley Law. Ms. Valdez studied Sociology, Women’s Studies, Chicana/o Studies, and Spanish during her undergraduate career at Colorado State University. Some of her activities in her first year of law school included being an Article Editor on the Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law & Justice, a founding member of the Women of Color Collective, a student representative for an asylum seeker in the California Asylum Representation Clinic, and an active member of the La Raza Law Students Association.
Ms. Valdez is interning this summer in the Immigration practice at EBCLC and is working mainly with low-income, HIV-positive clients. Under the supervision of Linda Tam, who directs the Immigration practice, her work covers a variety of legal issues, including applications for U visas, lawful permanent residence, and asylum. Ms. Valdez will receive a ,000 stipend made possible through a generous grant from BRAYTON PURCELL.
All Berkeley Law summer applicants to EBCLC were considered for the Fellowship, with a preference given to candidates who demonstrated through academic, employment and/or life experiences a commitment to serving low-income, minority, and underrepresented individuals and groups.
Brayton Purcell serves clients nationwide and has law offices in Northern and Southern California, Salt Lake City, UT, and Portland, OR. The attorneys at Brayton Purcell handle challenging cases involving tough issues-ones that champion consumer rights, community health, and the protection that real working people need every day. They strive to reduce hazards on the job, bringing to light problems with asbestos, beryllium, and other dangerous substances. The firm attorneys have repeatedly won multimillion dollar verdicts and settlements for their clients. These include the largest awards for asbestos victims in California and Utah. Brayton Purcell also obtained the largest awards in Oregon and Washington for individuals with asbestos-related diseases other than mesothelioma. The law firm of Brayton Purcell has been doing this work for over 26 years, combining compassionate service with tireless advocacy.
Since 1988 the East Bay Community Law Center has served as the community based component of Boalt Hall’s clinical program. Today, EBCLC is the East Bay’s largest provider of free legal services to the poor and a nationally-recognized teaching clinic. Each year more than 100 Boalt students train and practice at EBCLC under the supervision of 18 full-time staff attorneys in one of five practice areas that address legal issues related to housing, income support, HIV & health, immigration, community re-entry, homelessness, and consumer debt. EBCLC’s work makes the lives of East Bay community members more secure, productive, healthy, and hopeful.
For more information about the Brayton Purcell Fellowship at EBCLC, please contact Tirien Steinbach, EBCLC Executive Director, (510) 548-4040, ext. 373.

Types of Class Actions are Varied and Diverse
Types of Class Actions are Varied and Diverse
Last year, the Class Action Fairness Act of 2005 (CAFA) became law. The primary purposes of the Act was to assure fair and prompt recoveries of legitimate claims, to establish more liberal procedural requirements and to set forth new standards for class action settlements.
In general, the class action rule is in effect to improve the legal system’s effectiveness by permitting large groups of people with similar claims to join together into a single lawsuit. These large groups can be comprised of consumers, small businesses or injured people. One or more of the affected then represents the harmed group in court, and if those representatives meet specific criteria, they are granted permission to prove and settle not only their own claims, but also the claims of each individual of the larger affected group as well.
Antitrust Claims
Antitrust actions are typically brought when consumers suffer financial losses because products and services are illegally overpriced. This overpricing can occur due to companies fixing prices at artificial levels to secure higher profits and/or to force out competition, forming agreements that allocate markets or customers among competitors to eliminate or reduce competition and through bid rigging.
Consumer Actions
Consumer class actions are generally brought when consumers are injured by a company’s systematic and illegal practices. Examples include illegal charges on bills, illegal penalties for late-payments, and failure to comply with consumer protection laws.
Consumer Product Claims
Legal actions are often brought about because of defective products that cause harm or injury to large numbers of individuals due to faulty labeling, design defects or defective manufacturing. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer, designer, distributor, or retailer to ensure that the product does not cause harm and they can be held liable.
Breach of Warranty
Warranties on personal items, appliances, automotives and many other consumer products exist to protect consumers regardless of whether the product specifically states the coverage. When this assurance is false or the quality is misstated class action lawsuits are often brought against the liable party.
Employment Claims
Employment class action lawsuits are typically brought on behalf of employees of a large company for claims ranging from systematic workplace discrimination, illegal hiring and promotion practices, wrongful termination policies and practices, unpaid unemployment benefits and unpaid overtime.
Employee Benefits
These class actions by employees of a single employer generally address violations of Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and involve discriminatory practices or violations in employers plan design. In some cases company health plan benefit payments violate discrimination laws.
Insurance Claims
Insurance companies that misrepresent policies, do not pay valid claims, deny coverage to classes of individuals, fail to make prompt investigations or payments are all vulnerable to class action lawsuits.
Medical Devices
Medical devices that malfunction cause serious injury or death and the manufacturers of these devices are liable to the group of people and their families who suffer because of the defect of the device.
Product Liability/Personal Injury
Product liability and personal injury class action lawsuits are generally brought when a defective product, unreasonably dangerous product, unsafe environments or negligent practices kill or seriously harm and injure people.
Pharmaceutical Litigation
Pharmaceutical liability claims of prescription and over-the-counter medications are brought when drugs that are intended to help people causes side effects, injuries, serious harm or sometimes death in a large group of people. This can occur because clinical trials were not large enough to determine increased risks, when drugs are prescribed to the wrong patients or when drugs are regularly co-prescribed with other drugs and cause adverse reactions.
Securities Class Actions
Securities class actions are typically brought on behalf of a group of investors who have been injured as a result of a company’s improper conduct, such as misstating earnings, concealing or misrepresenting risks, or otherwise engaging in activity detrimental to the company. Other securities actions are brought as direct result of a financial advisor or broker’s, or group of advisors, repeated misrepresentation, negligence, dishonesty or fraud.
In addition to these industry class actions there are many other potential class actions that can be entered into the legal system if a large group of people have suffered or been harmed by the same person, company or entity in the same manner. A law firm that handles these types of cases can provide the guidance necessary to proceed with a class action lawsuit. Most fees are paid by the class action settlement.

Mesothelioma Lawyer Attorney.com Launches Industry First Directory of Mesothelioma Lawyers, Mesothelioma Attorneys and Mesothelioma Doctors
Mesothelioma Lawyer Attorney.com today launched the industry’s first directory of mesothelioma lawyers, mesothelioma attorneys and mesothelioma doctors, designed to help victims of mesothelioma find qualified legal and medical help.
Los Gatos, Calif. (PRWEB) August 27, 2007 – Mesothelioma Lawyer Attorney.com today launched the industry’s first directory of mesothelioma lawyers, mesothelioma attorneys and mesothelioma doctors, designed to help victims of mesothelioma find qualified legal and medical help.
Mesothelioma, a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos, causes malignant cells to develop in the lining around the lungs, heart, and abdominal cavities. Most people who develop mesothelioma cancer have worked careers where they inhaled asbestos dust, or have been exposed to asbestos particles and fibers in other ways, such as by home renovation or by washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos.
The mesothelioma lawyer, attorney and doctor directory also provides members of the legal and medical field the opportunity to reach and aid more victims of mesothelioma. The directory’s top ranking on Google, MSN, Yahoo and other major search engines, ensures that mesothelioma lawyers, attorneys and doctors listed in the directory are seen by the website’s 3,000 daily visitors.
“Thank you for helping me find a good mesothelioma attorney,” said recent website visitor George Trent. “After a short phone consultation, they came all the way out to my house in New Jersey and showed me exactly how they were going to help.”
If you or someone you love is suffering from mesothelioma cancer, you have certain legal rights that you need to know about. One way to take a stand against the asbestos industry, that put their profits ahead of your health, is to take legal action against them. You are entitled to financial compensation for your pain and suffering, but if you hesitate, you may lose your chance for justice due to your states’ statute of limitation laws.
