We know times are tough lately. The employment climate in the U.S. is something that we write about daily here at FindLaw.

And as jobs are cut, many legal aid positions are also going away. Legal aid departments are being slashed across the country, The Wall Street Journal reports. So we're proud of the fact that FindLaw can help fill this void. We are a free legal information website, after all.

We are constantly empowering you, our loyal users, with the information to make informed decisions on your own.

So for those of you searching for help with a legal issue, here are some areas of our website that could help:

We can all agree that email has become increasingly important to our day-to-day lives, both on a personal and professional level. There are an estimated 3.146 billion email accounts worldwide! Here at Findlaw.com we understand how important email is to you. We're addicted to checking our accounts on a daily basis too!

We send out 2 million email newsletters every month. More than just staying up to date (legally speaking), email provides a direct and regular way to get the content you want. Here's a look at 5 reasons why we think FindLaw's email newsletters are so great:

FindLaw's Legal News app is a way to get all the latest legal news you love...on the go. Did we mention it's also completely free?

That's why we've revamped our Elder Law and Aging sections. We want to make it easier for you to find information on legal issues affecting aging Americans.

With age comes wisdom, but that doesn't necessarily mean legal wisdom. Enter FindLaw's Learn About The Law. Trust us, it's just what the doctor ordered.

Here at FindLaw.com, we write a lot of blogs. Tons. Between the consumer and legal professional channels, hundreds are produced every single week.

Our blog posts run the gamut: From everyday legal issues to absurd fact patterns. And luckily for us, you like to share our content. Here is a look at five of our most shared FindLaw blog posts of late:

1. Fake Doctor, 81, Offers Door to Door Breast Exams -- Is it the fake doctor aspect? The fact that he was 81? Or the door-to-door approach to breaking the law that inspired so many people to share this legally weird post with their friends? You decide!

2. Man Set Taco Bell on Fire Over The Meat In His Chalupa -- When hunger strikes, best not to strike a match. One Georgia man was so upset about his inadequate fast food order he took to arson to show his anger.

3. Top 10 Legal Facts Every Blogger Should Know -- Anyone can blog these days, but do you know your legal rights when it comes to limiting and protecting your content? Read up!

Americans love to sue each other. We sue over just about anything and everything.

But did you know you can sue for alienation of affection? How about loss of consortium? (Hint: they both relate to sex.)

Don't worry if you don't know about these legal causes of actions. Most people probably can't define legal consortium either.

If you ever need information on a strange case, we've got your back. Here at FindLaw, we don't just deal with the marquee lawsuits. We cover a broad array of legal issues and doctrines here, people. 

If it's a law, we got a corps of in house attorney writers digging up stuff people haven't yet heard about... but will someday.

Let’s face it, you’re busy. And while you want to keep up with all the legal news around you, what you really want is to keep up with the legal news that’s important to you. Meet FindLaw Legal Pulse. Legal Pulse is the dynamic new way to get your news.

Much more than just bringing you news, Legal Pulse covers a broad range of law-related content including: Supreme Court decisions, legislative updates, FindLaw blog posts and even a real-time Twitter commentary stream featuring attorneys from around the country. Both legal professionals and consumers alike can enjoy their daily dose of news just how they like it!

Who says technology makes things easier? Ok, well lots of people, but lawyers do not necessarily fall into that category. Ask most lawyers and they will tell you that keeping up with all of the trends and complexities associated with technology can be a job in itself.

Whether marketing, networking, or promoting a law firm, the rapid development of online advertising is making it harder for attorneys to differentiate themselves from the competition. Attorneys should therefore be open-minded about exploring other forms of media to attract clients -- and that's where FindLaw Answers comes in.

The strike of a Louboutin stiletto can only signal one thing here at FindLaw: Tanya Roth

Our beloved Hyper Local blog editor turns the halls of FindLaw into a veritable runway of the latest high-end fashion finds five days a week. Combined with her enviable collection of vintage finds, she has certainly nailed the laws of fashion.

Luckily, Tanya's love for cheap Mexican food can fuel her weekly trips to San Francisco's Saks Fifth Avenue where she has her "shoe guy," Dave, on speed dial.

Tanya is a "valley girl." Silicon Valley that is. This third-generation Bay Area native is an interesting case study in who comes to work for FindLaw.

Check out some of these other facts about Ms. Tanya:

Law school is enjoyable but demanding. You'd think after three years of hitting the books and participating in internships, externships, mock trials and everything in between newly-minted esquires would be ready to hit the ground running.

Wrong.

Very few attorneys, new or old, actually know how to manage a law firm. I know coming out of law school I knew nothing about legal fees and everything about famous (and mostly deceased) Supreme Court Justices. Sure our research skills are stellar, but very few attorneys know the business side of running a law practice.
