• Disbar the Connecticut 5

  
  Defending People — Authority: 562
  No, not really. I don’t care whether they get disbarred or let off. A lawyer can’t pay a nonlawyer for a referral. This is an uncontroversial proposition. In Connecticut, paying a nonlawyer for a referral can even be a felony. So when five Connecticut lawyers signed on to pay totalbankruptcy.com $65 per ...

• What the…..

  
  The Agitator — Authority: 658
  ….so any attorneys want to explain to me what happened in this video? Is this as blatant, outrageous (and, I’d hope, illegal) as it looks? I mean, it is Maricopa County. But damn.

  You’re in business – you have competitors. They make a similar product, similar price – how can you separate? How about great service, great follow-up, great pro-activity?
