All in the Family
To Practice or Not to Practice? With a Loved One, it's all Relative.
Attorney Ronald J. Resmini has three sons, and each was ushered into the world with a ritual that perhaps only another lawyer could fully appreciate.
Thirty-two years ago, the proud dad, who heads his own law firm in Providence, had the name of each son - R. Jason, Adam J. and Andrew O. Resmini - painted on the doors of three separate offices shortly after each baby was born, establishing actual offices for what were then bawling infants.
"Within six months of their births, their names were on the doors," the elder Resmini says. "They're still there."
Was it an expression of supreme optimism? Or utter foolishness? "It was kind of wishful thinking," Resmini admits. But it worked. Resmini urged his three sons to earn law degrees because he knew how useful such a degree can be, whether one actually practices the law or not. Today the three sons work with their father in a firm where four out of the five practicing attorneys are Resminis.
"I love having the kids around," Resmini says today. "No matter how much we get on each other's nerves, there's nothing like it."
Working together with family members in the law - whether as practicing attorneys, law school instructors and/or administrators - presents exceptional challenges, putting happiness both at home and at work in jeopardy. It is a course of action that some say is fraught with peril - and others say is nothing short of ideal.

Update Rhode Island Tort Law & Personal Injury Practice By Ronald J. Resmini
Chapter 2 Negligence #85
In Ouch v. Khan Khea,963 A 2d 630 (R.I. 2009) two automobile passengers brought a tort (def> a tort is a wrongdoing that results in injury to another person or damage to another's property) action against the defendant/driver, who belonged to the same street gang as the passengers, alleging that the driver's negligent operation of an automobile during and after an incident in which shots were fired at an automobile of a rival gang members constituted the proximate cause of their gunshot injuries. The plaintiffs argued that the defendant, as the operator of the vehicle, had a duty of care - a duty that defendant breached they contended - by driving toward and past a danger (rival gang members). However, the court ruled that, although the defendant unquestionably owed plaintiffs a duty to operate his automobile in a safe manner, the driver did not have a duty of care to the passengers to protect them from the intentional criminal acts of rival street gang members.
