Imagine a place where the glamor of designer aprons collides with playful yet precise kitchen timing, all while remaining as adorable and as functional as a well-baked soufflé. Welcome to Jillie Willie. Jillie Willie’s owners Lisa Zarkos and Paul Raphel have what they term “back-country chic” style, which is reflected in the design of those knitted, designer aprons they sell on their website. Their culinary offerings are also fashionable and unique, such as smile-inducing color-coded Golden Potato Bags with plastic twist ties.
They have also created interesting, bright, playful but functional kitchen items, such as these bright yellow and teal flexible chopping mats or these narrow decorative LED light tubes for bottles that light up the room by simulating candlelight. But they’re also selling practical things like this iconic cherry red can opener that is accented with white and will slice right through cans and bring a dash of color to your kitchen.
Much like you need to put together different ingredients, at just the right amount and at just the right time, within all that is baking or cooking, conceptually, you also need the right elements in order to be successful in a legal malpractice case in New York. While it is certainly advisable to get a legal opinion on the subject of the merits of your case from an experienced legal malpractice attorney, one such element is timing or the “statute of limitations” element.
The statute of limitations is the legal time frame in which to bring a particular lawsuit in New York. Many people have heard of “Statute of Limitations” but may not understand its meaning or importance. The statute of limitations is how long people have to bring legal action against another party for their improper acts.
The failure to commence suit within the applicable time period can be fatal to any future lawsuit. If you fail to commence a malpractice lawsuit within the applicable statute of limitations time period, the law will bar you from bringing a lawsuit in the future for that incident; it’s as though that incident never happened.
Without the proper timing, in baking, cooking or the starting a New York legal malpractice case, there will be no legal “rising effect.” Which is why this article is a particularly fitting read after stumbling upon the greatly titled piece written by Robert X Greco, titled Understanding New York’s Statute of Limitations for Legal Malpractice.
