Miami criminal law attorney David Bauer of The Bauer Brofsky Law Firm wrote an article called “The Misclassification of Independent Contractors: The Fifty-four Billion Dollar Problem”. It was published in Volume 12 of the Rutgers Journal of Law & Public Policy.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/15/2016 -- In the article Bauer discusses the problem many employers face when misclassifying workers as a means of skirting employment acts, avoiding liability, and saving on the costs of labor. An example used in the article involves a dishwasher working at a family restaurant who was being paid less than minimum wage and was not receiving any overtime. Bauer's article cites studies, employee rights, and the inability to entirely stop independent contractor misclassification, among other things.

Miami criminal law attorney Bauer Brofsky Law Firm recently discussed estate planning tips and working with a reputable attorney in creating a will, dispelling myths associated with the topic and the importance of having an estate plan in place as well as a case involving probate and dubious wills.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/15/2016 -- One of the estate planning myths discussed was the importance of having an estate plan to distribute property upon death regardless of how little property an individual property may own. Because of differing state laws an estate may not be distributed in a way that a person deems fit or agrees with. The importance of hiring an estate planning attorney and discussing an estate plan regardless of a person's age was also discussed.

The probate case involved a woman who ended up receiving significantly less than the original sum she was entitled to when her husband passed away upon fleeing to Florida and then subsequently passing away. The man had filed for bankruptcy and also left behind a series of wills that were not probated and had questionable validity, reinforcing the need for an estate planning attorney.

Miami criminal law attorney Bauer Brofsky Law Firm recently highlighted some of the new controversial changes happening in regards to gun control, specifically a bill being passed through the Florida House Criminal Justice Subcommittee called HB 163.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/09/2015 -- HB 163 aims to allow Florida gun owners to openly carry a firearm in a public setting as long as the individual has a permit, contrasting with existing state laws that make carrying an open firearm illegal. The bill was passed with an eight to four vote and remains highly controversial among Democrats and activists seeking tighter gun control laws amid a surfeit of shootings throughout the United States, most recently in Texas.

Supporters of HB 163 are citing the second amendment to the United States Constitution, stating that should the bill pass, their rights will be vindicated and restored. The bill will also promote public safety, per supporters. Those who are against the passing of HB 163 believe gun owners should be required to attend firearm training. Property owners should also be given the option of not allowing an open firearm within their place of business or their home.
