make sure you name all of your joints (ie. jntRigLfShoulder)
when paining weights, move your joints (or controls) and paint what you want to be affected white. do not use the Replace option, unless you have holds on joints. 0(black)=no effect 1(white)=total effect.
once you have one side done nicely, return your model to the bind pose and you can mirror skin weights (option box).
