Someone better explain to Ms Lawyer that she works for US, her clients.
Ileana,
Sometime back in round three of this thing when we were all arguing if our
by-laws and member application, (the whole membership process in fact), allowed
board members to vote "no", sometime in the middle of this debacle when it
appeared that procedures were not followed on a number of occasions we all
wondered if that left the board/club open to a whole mess. (I feared the
worst.)
You and I agreed an outside legal opinion might not be a bad thing and it
makes sense to me to choose someone from NY familiar with that kind of law.
(I
don't hire a tax attorney to do estate planning for instance, and one can
only hope that this lady is a specialist.)
Apparently, the fears were justified.
Reading Evan's first post when I saw that a portion of the settlement
agreement/proposal dealt with having our board take training in antitrust law
made
it crystal clear to me that a violation had occurred.
Next...when you seek counsel for anything, an attorney is going to want the
whole picture. Warts and all. How can they be expected to "fix" something
without knowing what other shoe may drop? So, the client goes under a
magnifying glass. It's not comfortable, but it's also not the time for finger
pointing and calling the lawyer names. Case in point, there was no disclaimer
in
the Review on the editorial page. So...we can expect this lawyer, if she is
to do her job, to look at everything and make recommendations.
This isn't a statement about puppy mills or personalities. It isn't about
supporting who voted their conscience and bashing those who in retrospect,
knew better.
"We" are in a mess, and it's about fixing it, learning from our mistakes and
preventing them from happening again.
(I don't know this attorney from Adam. I pray she's good!)
