It is a lie to the client and it is a dangerous lie. A lie that can end up with the client in state prison. If you are a potential...

The need for quality legal advice is particularly important in the context of employment law disputes where a successful plaintiff is entitled to recover his/her reasonable attorney’s fees. At the moment you become aware of an actual or potential employment law dispute, it is crucial that you receive advice as to whether or nor the claim is valid. If the claim is valid, then it makes business sense to pay it quickly rather than prolong the dispute and expose your company to the risk of paying significant attorney’s fees to the plaintiff. If the claim is dubious, then you need...

Rather than learning to keep to myself after that fiasco, I seemingly continued to feel obliged to help the weak, the downtrodden, and the oppressed because when I look back, that act of assistance in first grade, was...
