What are some specific reasons couples break up?
After 20 years, he still won't hang up his coat or help with the dishes, and she fails to recognize him as the center of the universe. Really, I think the primary reason they break up is that they've lost (or never acquired) the ability and openness to communicate to each other what each wants and needs, and/or the desire to provide it.
Does a pre-nup always lead to a good marriage?
Not in my experience, no. In fairness, though, someone with a “good marriage” isn't likely to come to see a porce attorney, so it could be that my perspective is a bit skewed.
Are you married . . . happily?
I live with my long-term partner…happily.
What's the best way to clean up a messy porce? Is it Febreze?
Febreze just covers up the odor. Seriously, the answer is doing your research and hiring a great attorney, of course.
As a porce lawyer, what do you love about Valentine's Day?
As a porce lawyer, the phone rings constantly.
What do you hate about it?
The phone rings constantly.
Have you ever had any cases hinge upon Valentine's Day?
See above.
Have you ever gotten a Valentine's Day card from a lawyer you faced off against in court?
No. Is that bad?
Our Insider mascots, Svetlana and Gomez, are considering tying the knot. Any advice for them (keeping in mind that they are finger puppets)?
Are the finger puppets on the same hand?
