QUESTION: why does everyone say: "i have a good lawyer" or "i know a good lawyer" - GoFuckYourself.com

MetaMan · 09-05-2006, 04:48 AM

i would sure hope you are not using a BAD lawyer.

i find it funny that people always need to explain they have a GOOD or the BEST lawyer, no you probably dont, and it does not scare anyone when you say you do.

does anyone else find the absolutley hilarious?

I find bringing up lawyers to be amusing. I can count on ONE hand the number of times I've had to file suit against people in this industry, and that's since 1996. People threaten legal action of tiny amounts like $15,000 -- it's almost laughable. They have no idea what they're talking about. It'd cost more to litigate than their suit is worth.

I've never said that in my life.

Mr.Right - Banned For Life · 09-05-2006, 04:56 AM

Like when someone knows a good tradesman

i dont know how good our attornies are, but they always get the results we want

TSGlider · 09-05-2006, 06:09 AM

It's a bit of a joke, isn't it? Like saying, "I'll be back," or "Here's looking at you, sweety," something one says to feel for a moment like they're in a hollywood movie. It may have held more weight back when law schools weren't churning out billions of lawyers per year.

notabook · 09-05-2006, 06:14 AM

Your statement was frivolous and defamatory and I'm going to SUE YOUR ASS. Anyone know a good lawyer?

uh, I actually video taped myself wiping my ass with someone's threat of a lawsuit and sent it to them.
I wonder if I still have that laying around.

pussyluver · 09-05-2006, 07:20 AM

I've met plenty of bad attorneys and even hired a few. My ex is an attorney. So whip-dee-fucking-dooo. Not to worry, she won't be representing me in any litigation.....

KRL · 09-05-2006, 07:35 AM

There are actually more lousy attorneys than good ones and most are just after your bucks win or lose.

ajrocks · 09-05-2006, 07:57 AM

Its because lawyers are like assholes, everyone has one.

wyldblyss · 09-05-2006, 08:00 AM

I avoid my lawyer like the plague. All I know is that even mentioning his name will mean a very large bill popping up in my mail box lol. It has to be something pretty important to get me to contact him hehe

Klen · 09-05-2006, 08:02 AM

I wonder when will come day when all lawyers will shooted in sun hehe

hmm no not at all, i think alot of people who have LESS money use the line as if they are going to scare anyone off.

everyone knows the people with the best lawyers do not make threads, they take you to court before you can take a shit.
