HERE COME DA JUDGE!
good one. good atty
Good choice. Good firm, good lawyer.
'Good firm' is meaningless. What we need is a good jurist.
Good firm is not meaningless. It means her peers, respected lawyers in her community, think well of her and invited her to associate in a respected group with an established reputation built over time.
Thanks for a member of the firm speaking up @ 2:47. But your post amounts to bullshit. Who takes the time to congratulate himself for being 'respected in the community'?
@3:32
That would be people who are actually ya know......respected in the community of professionals in which they exist
@ 3:32 I dunno. But seems better than someone who takes the time to post a self-defeating, pointless comment.
