Settlement Is Inevitable!

The author writes "Our court system is a bedrock of our society. It is a place where people come to resolve differences and disputes, seek redress and recourse for wrongdoing and request assistance and remedy in a myriad of circumstances and situations.

This perspective makes it easy for me to understand the motivation behind the push to enact 'Second Look' legislation in New York."
