Bigfoot has become more important in our family’s life. It now seems amazing that we ignored him and his escapades for so many years. Our four-year-old grandson, Andrew, changed all that. He discovered Bigfoot this year. It wasn’t done in the wild forests of Alaska or Northern Georgia. It happened at home. On an iPhone. With his “Mimaw” providing a YouTube guide to Bigfoot. I’m not sure about the order of sightings. Alaska, British Columbia, Georgia. Again, I’m not sure. Whatever its beginning, we’re now firmly planted in its mystery. We even have a prominently placed bright yellow backyard sign that meets visitors with the customary caution: “WARNING – BIGFOOT AREA – STAY ON MARKED TRAILS.” Andrew can now [...]

He is risen. Three words. Three words that turned mourning to joy. Three words that kindled a fire that’s endured for over two thousand years. Our last year, for many of us, has included times of darkness, doubt and mourning. It’s now Easter 2021. May the promises of Easter – resurrection, renewal, and rebirth – bring us a new year of life. We wish you all a Happy Easter from Hackard Law. [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewsv8jZeXIw&ab_channel=HackardLaw[/embed][...]

Just about everyone is happy that 2020 is almost over – it’s been an incredibly rough ride for just about all of us. In between the Covid pandemic, waves of shutdowns, and social upheaval, it’s safe to say we have nowhere to go from here but onward and upward. Thankfully, we have the Christmas Season to celebrate. Christmas is my favorite holiday for lots of reasons, but the main one is its deep consolation to mankind. In the cold night sky a star burns brightly, and in a humble manger below, our Savior is born. “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God is with us.”) (Matthew 1:23) We’ve undergone many challenges this year, and we’ll be ready for new ones[...]

I’m Mike Hackard. I’m part of a plaintiffs’ litigation law practice. This practice is rich in helping clients, neighbors and friends deal with overcoming the familiar barriers, challenges and trials of estate, trust, and catastrophic injury litigation. While there are many similar fact patterns, there are others less commonplace. This Christmas season brings a few of the less commonplace to mind. We all have our Holiday or Christmas reflections. Maybe rituals. Each year is different in some way. Each Christmas season, I’ve made it a point to reflect upon the life lessons from Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. I’ve read the book many times, seen it presented in plays, and watched several film versions of the story. It [...]
