Teens & Winter Driving
The holidays are over, but winter weather is not. Above freezing daytime temperatures with rain can be deceiving, especially for inexperienced teen drivers. As the temperature drops at night, wet roads turn into icy roads and can also lead to black ice in the morning while teen drivers are making their way to school.
Bar Association thankful for Berrien County bailiffs
Herald Palladium Letters to the Editor November 16, 2016
Editor,
As Thanksgiving and the year-end holidays approach, the lawyers of Berrien County express their thanks and appreciation for the Berrien County Courthouse bailiffs. Our profession has the unique opportunity to see their hard work at our courthouses in St. Joseph and Niles. They treat us and our clients with courtesy and kindness, even under stressful times. They assist with paperwork, locate people and files, and keep the busy court dockets organized for efficient adjudication. They manage conflict and delicate personal matters by displaying respect to everyone.

Additional Insurance Coverage Options Keep You Protected
A basic no-fault insurance policy has state mandated coverage in three parts: personal injury protection, property protection, and residual bodily injury/property damage liability insurance. It does not pay for vehicle repairs, replacement of stolen vehicles, or “mini-tort” liability. Your policy is also limited by the amount of coverage you choose to purchase.
