Wait, WHAT? I just found out that YOUR lawyer is dating MY lawyer! How is that allowed to happen? Is it even legal?

    Oh, so you haven't been informed yet, I see. Hmmmm, how awkward. Pretend that I never posted this.

    If they are each representing opposing parties in a lawsuit, I would think that would be a conflict of interest.

    I don't know if it's legal, but I do know that your lawyer has been picking up the check.

    Legal or not, it's totally unethical. I would definitely worry about a conflict of interest. Now, if they dated in the past, that might be another issue altogether.

    Exactly! Will you come with me when I report them to the judge?

    Of course, I will. :)  And, if I were you, I would also file a complaint with the Bar Association.  No more drinks for them!

    That's because your lawyer is a solicitor. That's an English lady lawyer without her briefs.

    I've had mine so long, I'd probably just keep my mouth shut and take the chance ;)

    Hello Randy:

    SOME people are able to SEPARATE their personal lives from their business lives.  If your lawyer can't, I'd find a new lawyer..

    You're only trying to throw me off the scent in order to prevail in the lawsuit.
