  • Roadkill, it’s what’s for dinner

    Ok, I’m sure there’s no need to apologize in advance for grossing anyone out, because most of us were ecstatic in 2016 when the Washington legislature passed a law allowing people to take fresh roadkill home for dinner. Now, our state is one of about…

  • Check Scam Lands in Kennewick

    Last week, a small-money check scam landed in Kennewick… on my kitchen counter. It started off fairly believable, then turned sideways right before my daughter got the check. By that point, we were laughing out loud at the whole situation. Literally. LOL. It started a…

  • Candy before tacos

    Candy before tacos

    Candy before tacos may sound a little backwards, but not if you are running a 5k through Richland’s Candy Mountain Preserve like we did last week. In fact, tacos were the perfect prize at the finish line, waaay better than a finisher’s medal! Humble beginnings…

  • My Dog Doesn’t Bite

    How many times have I heard someone say, “Oh, you don’t have to worry, my dog doesn’t bite”? Saying this seems to come as naturally to a dog owner as does peanut butter with jelly, or biscuits with gravy, or Jim Halpert with Pam Beesly.…

    One of the realities of driving on highways and freeways in the Tri-Cities and the inland Northwest is sharing the road with the large semi trucks that keep our stores stocked. Some people call them 18 wheelers, others call them tractor trailers, but in Washington…

  • Tri-Cities Scholarships

    Anderson Law is committed to giving back in as many ways as possible, including awarding scholarships annually to high school students in the Tri-Cities and surrounding areas who are seeking higher education. There’s just one small problem: we need applicants to click right here and…

  • The Role of Law

    The Role of Law

    Lately, the role of law in society seems to have been put in question. Law is commonly defined as “the principles and regulations established in a community by some authority and applicable to its people, whether in the form of legislation or of custom and…

  • The Tri-Cities Wind

    The Tri-Cities Wind

    The regular Tri-Cities wind might be an “act of God” that causes car accidents, but that’s probably not the end of the story. In fact, just like driving in the snow and ice, driving in high winds could be an assumption of the risk on…
