After studying at Greendale Community College for four years to get back to his law career, Jeff Winger wound up becoming a teacher in Community. The character, played by Joel McHale, served as one of the primary characters on Dan Harmon's NBC comedy. Jeff was one of the founding members of the study group, along with Annie, Shirley, Pierce, Troy, Abed, and Britta. Out of all the main figures, though, Jeff had evolved the most by the time the series ended.

In order to get back to his old life as a defense attorney, Jeff had to get a real education. And while at...

The phrase “thinking like a lawyer” encapsulates a way of thinking that is characterized by both the goal pursued and the method used. People who have learned to think like lawyers usually also talk like lawyers, often to the considerable annoyance of their families and friends.

Latin Lawyer 250 – Strange times: the outlook for Brazilian exploration and production of oil An explosive combination of two external factors completely out of oil companies’ control – the controversy between Saudi Arabia and Russia over the increase in oil production, combined with the covid-19 outbreak – have led to the most significant drop in oil prices in 17 years. By Paulo Valois Pires, partner at Schmidt, Valois, Miranda, Ferreira, Agel Advogados These two events were crucial factors behind a significant drop in the oil barrel price, generating on the one hand an excess of supply and on the other, a profound reduction in demand due to the downturn of economic activity.

The fatality inquiry investigating the deaths, which completed its seventh day of hearings on Wednesday, was shown a silent, 20-minute surveillance video recorded inside Leaves and Limbs Sports in Antigonish around 4 p.m. on Jan 3, 2017. "He appeared to be calm and composed," said Dr. Faisal Rahman, a senior psychiatrist at St. Martha's Regional Hospital in Antigonish, upon seeing the video. Two hours later, the mentally ill retired corporal killed...

The lawyer for a teen suspected of killing another during a fight on the Atascocita High School football field says he would have turned himself in earlier if it hadn't been for the novel coronavirus. Jaqwaun Pradia, the target of an arrest warrant issued March 15, has been riding out the pandemic with his mother, who helped in securing his surrender, his lawyer, Tyrone Moncriffe, said. The 19-year-old turned himself over to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office on Monday morning and has since been booked into the county lockup on a $250,000 bond. “We had planned to turn himself in, but with the virus — we wanted to wait for a safe time,” said Moncriffe, who court...
