Ileana - Exactly. If someone finds themselves in a kettle of fish, they want someone who will get them out by any means necessary, whether they deserve to be in the kettle of fish or not. They probably will be willing to suspend their normal righteous indignation about immoral, devious, unethical attorneys when it's their hide that is about to be cooked. Their posture is then more likely to be, "Whatever. Just make this go away." Or, "Whatever. Just get me out of here." Not speaking from first hand experience, of course. tom elkins Firethorn Temple http://www.firethorntemple.com -----Original Message----- From: showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of InquestGSD@xxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2009 2:31 PM To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Not a problem I've always thought that most people are a bit schizophrenic on the subject of attorneys. Most people bad mouth them and make sweeping negative generalizations about the profession until they need one. Then they want the toughest, shrewdest attorney that they can find. tom elkins Tom, I wouldn't called that schizophrenic, but I think I understand your point. I love Yorkies, but if faced with a home invasion, I want a German Shepherd or a Doberman. Don't see anything wrong with that.
