Noticed there are at least a few other self-identified lawyers on here.. Roguish Lawyer, Counsel, I feel like I recall one or two more... I'd be interested in your practice areas. I work for the gov but not military.

You know that sound that crickets make?

You can almost hear them, but on the internet, wow!

Lucky you, Medic! Since I never wore my earplugs, I hear the damned crickets ALL the time now! :D

Maybe because SF guys frequently need the assistance of a good lawyer! Lucky me, one of my old "team buddies" is a damned good litigator... not just a lawyer - and despite what TV may show, those guys (litigators) are few and far between imho.

So... come on, self-identify! Don't be like my SPED kids in Evening School. Be proud, shout it out loud! :D:D

Who came up with "the Verified Bill of Particulars and a demand for discovery and inspection" after counterclaims and cross claims? Why sue, counter sue, and deny each and every allegation contained in pargraphs...of the Verified complaint herein...blab, blab, blab....

I was speaking with a retired Superior Court Judge for the Great State of New Jersey recently and the conversation turned to Posner; the good judge was kind enough to share his three decades of insight on the bench, with the following remark concerning a Judge's prejudices which Posner refers to in his book, so, when asked about criminal cases, his viewpoint was, “they’re all guilty”…

Oh boy. You all SEE why I tell people I meet, especially guys, that I'm a palm reader?? Not sure why anyone else who's a lawyer is on this board. I'm here because some of the people I most admire are QPs.. And, let's face it, you guys are just damn cool.
Plus I find you guys to be knowledgeable, your board is well organized/is not cluttered up with nonsense, and I tend to agree with at least a lot of you politically. Seriously, though, I think there's something we can relate to about the QP way of..analytical thinking/problem solving? Or maybe I'm making that part up.

I joined the board before I was a lawyer and I'm grateful the QP's haven't kicked me off even after I became one. :D

I recently hung a shingle and am a solo practitioner. Mostly personal injury, although as a solo it seems like I only spend about twenty five per cent of my time on lawyering.
