For many people in Louisville, and really all across America, summer brings something special to mind: baseball.
Louisville is a city with a great baseball tradition, focused around its most popular export: the Louisville Slugger.
The local bat factory has a rich history and is a family-owned company founded in 1884. Currently, John A. Hillerich IV is the CEO and President, the great-grandson of Bud Hillerich. Bud was the baseball fan that introduced the family woodworking business to the game in the 1800s.
I highly recommend taking a tour of the Louisville Slugger Museum, if you haven’t done so already. The manufacturer boasts the number one bat in Major League Baseball, with the famous Louisville Slugger logo burnt into each product.
At the factory, experience history in the making as you stroll through the actual areas where the bats are made.
It’s hard not to notice the factory when you pass by, as the world’s largest bat leans on the building, standing at 120 feet.
After watching the beginning of a bat’s life, why not watch them at work? Nothing says Louisville summer like a day at Louisville Slugger Field. Here, you can fill up on peanuts, cracker jacks, or whatever baseball food you enjoy while watching the Louisville Bats. [Read more…]

Last Will
A last will is used to distribute property to beneficiaries, specifically last wishes, and name guardians for minor children. [Read more…]

Filing bankruptcy can help many people recover from very tough financial situations. In many cases, people can become financially stable after bankruptcy, with time of course. As we’ve often mentioned, bankruptcy is designed to help an honest person get out of debt.
Unfortunately, there are situations where bankruptcy is abused.
A recent CBS Sports article about former Arkansas Razorbacks coach John L. Smith demonstrates how being honest up front can save you from headaches later. [Read more…]

Molly Burchett’s report “Bankruptcy Filing By Mental Health Agency A Loser For Kentucky” shows that bankruptcy can strike both businesses and individuals and depicts a tricky situation the state and public are now facing.
Rather than paying the Kentucky Employee Retirement System, Seven Counties Services Inc. (one of the state’s largest mental health agencies) will file bankruptcy, according to the article. This creates a series of problems. Most obviously, the state will lose money to the Kentucky Employee Retirement System. [Read more…]
There are several big misconceptions about bankruptcy and the individuals who file bankruptcy. One of those misconceptions is the “why.” Many outsiders (individuals who have not filed bankruptcy or not had someone close to them go through it) believe that individuals who file bankruptcy are simply irresponsible. They think individuals who file bankruptcy spent lavishly and lived beyond their means with no thought as to how they would pay the money back later on. Believe it or not, most bankruptcy filers do not fit that description.Sure, there are probably some who do, but the vast majority had other reasons for filing bankruptcy. Here is a look behind bankruptcy: [Read more…]

In response to tough economic times, it seems like our television airwaves are being filled with commercials for bankruptcy lawyers and debt management professionals. If you’re struggling under the weight of your debt, you know that it’s very important for you to make the best possible decision to alleviate that burden. However, what is the best decision? What exactly is the difference between debt management plans and bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy is a court action that involves an attorney and may result in either a repayment plan or a complete erasure of certain debts. Not all debts can easily be absolved under bankruptcy; for example, in most cases, student loans will not be eliminated. [Read more…]
