I thought Martha's vineyard was in Virginia (part of Washington's estate) until i was 20. For reference I'm from the south so never went and would see southern ppl wearing vineyard Vines sometimes and figured it had to be south of the mason Dixon line

It’s alright dear. I thought Martha’s Vineyard was Martha Stewart’s private island for the rich and well connected until I was 25

Does where you get your masters degree matter?

AITA. I was hired in 2019 by an individual to handle her wrongful termination case on an hourly fee basis. I usually work on contingency but this client made about 35k/yr and found a new job for less money right after she was fired. After paying around 17k in attorney’s fees she runs out of money and pays me 500 every few months but even that eventually stops. We end up winning a jury trial and appeal. My fees are more than the judgement. AITA for taking the full judgement to cover my fees?

One of my law school classmates had a neighbor shoot through his door and hit a court process server. Apparently, the neighbor thought he was an intruder because the server didn't announce himself.

I've been told that it's actually not common practice for a server to announce himself at the door, why not? I feel like it would avoid the situation. In no way am I victim blaming, I'm just curious as to why that's not common practice
