A group of dinner guests were blaming all of Americas troubles on lawyers when a woman said, They arent all so bad. Why, last year a lawyer gave me $1000.
I dont believe it, the host responded.
Its true, I swear it, said the woman. I had a complicated personal injury case and what with the lawyers fee, the cost of expert witnesses, the expense of the appeal and so on, my bill was $41,000. When the judgment only amounted to $40,000, my lawyer simply forgave the difference. |
