I’ve worked for enough of his kind for three lifetimes. At 35, yeah I’d do it. Now, I’d be hard pressed not to wish him a really slow form of ALS.
His kind should be barred from all courthouses.

At an early point in my career I was trying to build a referral network by going to local bar association dinner meetings. I walked into one and noticed it was packed. Every table was full, except one. There were 8 chairs and just one older woman. So I sat next to her.
She said “everyone in this room now hates you.” “Huh?” She explained she was married to a state court Judge who divorced her. She felt she got hosed, so she went to law school to find out what happened.
Eventually she hired a second firm to sue the firm that represented her in the divorce for malpractice. Eventually she hired a third firm to sue the second firm.
By the time I met her she was on the fifth-
Someone walks in your office and says “I want to hire you to sue the firm I hired to sue the firm that I hired to sue the firm that I hired to sue my divorce attorney.”
