Social Media & Your Personal Injury Case
When it comes to getting an insurance settlement for your injury, whether you were hit by another driver or broke some bones at your jobsite, remember to “tread wisely” on social media.

Steven Titus & Associates, P.C. Offers $500 Nationwide Scholarship
College isn’t for everyone. Though lots of jobs nowadays require four-year degrees, there are still great ones that don’t, ones that you learn the old-fashioned way: by doing them. To be honest, a lot of lawyering—especially tackling opponents in the courtroom—is also like that, but if you want to be a lawyer, you probably have to go to college. And that’s not a bad thing by any means.
Steven Titus, founding attorney of Steven Titus & Associates, P.C., thrived during his college and law school years, and because of that, he and his firm want to help one lucky and talented student pay for some expenses that come along with higher education. We are offering $500 as the prize for impressing us through our Find Your Path Scholarship 2018.

Coal Mining: High Risk, High Reward

In 2017, there were 15 coal-mining fatalities: five in Wyoming, eight in West Virginia, and two in Kentucky. In 2016, there were only eight.
Titus Recommends Client for Boot Camp, Challenges Wyoming System
Wyoming has a progressive program in place for first-time offenders. The state’s Youthful Offender Program, commonly referred to as Boot Camp, is a six-month program that emphasizes rehabilitation rather than punishment. When it comes to drug offenses, most people charged are non-violent and in need of serious help. Is prison the best place for them?
