During this time of uncertainty we want you to know that Thurman Law Firm is still here to help you with your legal needs. Unfortunately, in this time of crisis our problems don’t just go away and in fact sometimes they multiply. These last few weeks we have continued to serve and meet the needs of our clients all while maintaining crucial social distancing practices. Social distancing practices are important for everyone to follow and that is particularly true for those ...who in charge of taking care of our most vulnerable. Large numbers of Covid-19 outbreaks in local Nursing Homes have been getting a great deal of attention recently in the news media. If you have a loved one in a Nursing Home that has had a Covid-19 outbreak or has faced other abuse or neglect during this time and have concerns or questions please give us a call. We are currently working with our friend and fellow attorney David Terry on some of those issues. We thought we would share with you a recent blog that he wrote. https://terrylawoffice.com/st-louis-nursing-home-abuse-law/

Medical Marijuana License process is a boondoggle Senator Doug Libla from Poplar Bluff has taken up the fight for our client and many others in the state capital. The people of the state of Missouri overwhelming passed a constitutional amendment allowing medical marijuana sales in this state. The amendment set out the basic parameters and the State had to develop the details for obtaining a license. A great opportunity for Missourians, a system designed to give Missouri... people and businesses a chance to enter the market. Instead what we have experienced is, as Senator Libla describes as a boondoggle. Conflicts with the scoring company and inconsistent scoring of answers has led to shutting out many Missourians and not in a fair way. We have, or will, file a total of at least eight appeals and consulted on others for good homegrown companies and business people that have been unfairly denied a license. Stay tuned as Senator Libla fights this in the legislature and we fight it in the courts. See Senator Libla’s interview with KY3 in the comments. https://www.ky3.com//Missouri-State-Senator-calls-medical-

When a family member dies, his or her estate needs to be collected, managed, and distributed. Probate and estate administration involve gathering the assets of the estate, paying the decedent’s debts, and distributing the assets that remain in the estate in its most simplified form. However, due to the complexities of the law involving estate administration, a named executor (a responsible party to manage the estate) should be familiar with the necessary fiduciary duty of pr...obate management. Our probate attorneys have years of experience with the handling of all the necessary filing requirements, probate of wills, the post-death administration of trusts, and the successful closing out of estate matters all while making sure any unnecessary delays are avoided.
