Replaced Texan, who already was a Super Moderator (just one step below an Admin) has agreed to step into the role of Administrator. We needed a bit more assistance in helping people with problems they encounter and also in technological aspects of the board. With her prior experience with chat boards, RT brings a lot of knowledge that will be very helpful.

Thank you RT and good luck.

I'm just happy to be here. Hope I can help the ballclub.

Thanks leagle!

Lawyers Who Need Lawyers
 
Today's paper has a story about lawyers hiring lawyers.

Here's an excerpt from "In a Complex World, Even Lawyers Need Lawyers" by Jonathan D. Glater:

While courting a new business client, a lawyer at Pillsbury Winthrop made an uncomfortable discovery. The potential client wanted to sue a subsidiary of another company that the firm represented.

What the lawyer did next may be just one more sign of the times. He called his own lawyer - the general counsel at the firm.

Law firms, it turns out, are finding that they need their own lawyers to advise them on how to practice law. "

This doesn't seem to be a particularly new thing among smaller firms. Is it just now hitting BigLaw?

I think small firms have the greater issue with loose cannons. I've worked in 2 big firms, and they both had a central guy for conflicts issues, malpractice, etc. Everyone but the top rainmakers would go through them on any issues. Big guys sometimes got cocky and tried to sidestep, but the bulk of us plebes toed the line.

to hate plaintiffs lawyers. After the settlement check for $13.86 from the CD antitrust litigation. I think I'll go off to iTunes to spend it.

Don't forget to add your 37 cents for the visa and mastercard settlements. And the buck for the state farm settlement.

Absolutely, which is why the 15c I got in the interest settlement hacks me off even more (not to mention I got less that puppy). At least $13.86 is Real Cash Money, which is rare. I'd need six citibank cards (don't think they haven't tried) just to buy on song. With this? 14 on the nose. Hey Ya!
