ITEMIZED LEGAL FEES
A
client who felt his legal bill was too high asked his lawyer to
itemize costs. The statement included this item:
"Was walking down the street and saw you on the other side.
Walked to the corner to cross at the light, crossed the street
and walked quickly to catch up with you. Got close and saw it
wasn't you. --- $50.00."
SETTLEMENT NEGOTIATIONS ON THE COURSE
A
golfer hooked his tee shot over a hill and onto the next
fairway. Walking toward his ball, he saw a man lying on the
ground, groaning with pain.
"I'm an attorney," the wincing man said, "and this is going to
cost you $5000."
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry," the concerned golfer replied.
"But I did yell 'fore'."
"I'll take it," the attorney said.
