Law Firm Serves Up Legal Help at a Drive-Through

Over the weekend it was reported that a law firm in Connecticut opened the first drive-through law firm. Now, dropping off documents for clients of the personal injury firm is as easy as getting a Mc Vale meal.

Law.com reports:

The Kocian Law Group has opened a drive-through office in a building that once housed a former Kenny Rogers Roasters.

Attorney Nick Kocian tells WVIT-TV that clients can use the drive-through at the law firm's Manchester, Conn., site to drop off and pick up documents.

He says it's more convenient for his clients. A paralegal works at the window, handing out documents and answering questions.

Consultations and meetings with lawyers will still be scheduled for the office.

Rating Cut by Fitch on Wealthiest U.S. State

According to EconomicPolicyJournal.com, the state of Connecticut is expected to borrow nearly a billion dollars to close a budget gap in the fiscal year beginning July 1^st. This move comes after boring money last fiscal year to cover their $947.6 million deficit. As a result, Fitch – a well-regarded international credit rating agency – has downgraded the states credit rating AA+ to AA.

“The downgrade reflects the state’s reduced financial flexibility, illustrated by its reliance on sizable debt issuances during the current biennium to close operating gaps in the context of already high liabilities,” Fitch said.

Connecticut is the wealthiest state on a per capita basis with personal income of $54,397 in 2009, according to Department of Commerce.
