What is the Boulevard Rule?

March 15, 2017/in Criminal/Traffic/DUI, DUPD University, Legal Minute Blog
This week, David C. Weigel describes the Boulevard Rule. Although this law may sound unfamiliar, it is a rule that most drivers deal with on a daily basis. This traffic law in Maryland states that any driver approaching an intersection from a smaller roadway must yield the right-of-way to the drivers on the through highway.
The driver approaching from the smaller roadway is known as the unfavored driver. The unfavored driver must yield until he/she can either cross the through highway safely or merge and get up to speed. In the personal injury context, the Boulevard Rule places a duty on the unfavored driver to avoid a collision by yielding to the favored drivers.

Taxable Estate vs. Probate Estate

November 6, 2013/in Legal Minute Blog, Probate/Wills/Estate Planning, Real Estate

This week’s Legal Minute features Davis, Upton, Palumbo & Dougherty LLC’s Managing Member, Mark J. Davis, Esq. Mr. Davis is no stranger when it comes to Probate Law. In fact, Mark is considered to be amongst the most elite Probate/Estate Administration attorneys in Southern Maryland. In this week’s Legal Minute segment, Mark distinguishes the differences between Taxable & Probate Estates – a necessary distinction when considering Probate.

Often times, major legal-decisions are obstructed by complex, hard to understand, judicial-language – i.e. “lawyer lingo.” For this very reason, many people are likely to hesitate in (even refrain entirely from) making critically important legal-decisions. At Davis, Upton, Palumbo & Dougherty, LLC., we strive to NOT ONLY provide you with a level of service & professionalism we – ourselves – might expect; we also make a point to EDUCATE our clients about the process from start to finish. In doing so, our clients experience a level of satisfaction before, during, and after we represent them.
