You think it as pandering, some think of it as being excepted.

As far as First responders, any business that recognizes their service, by thanking them, it’s always greatly appreciated, and earned. After all like my family they couldn’t and would not hide in their house when times aren’t safe.

Service 68-72 never treated badly when returning after 2 deployments, actually military service gave me a preference in hiring on discharge…

I've used them a few times in my life, some of the worst experiences of any "professional" encounters. I'd prefer a proctologist with 2xl hands and a dentist that used woodworking tools rather than dealing with a leach lawyer.

We need black pudding now.

I think the veterans who are treated badly for 40 years - are the ones who demand respect, but don't command it.

Love lawyer jokes.

I recall being involved with the defense of a con man who just made up the company that was backing the securities he was selling to friends and family. The Yale Law school lawyer convinced the judge that the law at that time did not cover imaginary companies and the securities backing them.

The conned victims were then told by the judge that they should have done their homework before investing with a con man.

This was when I was with Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners at the U of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

The work of the Yale Law trained lawyer was very impressive. The company underwriting the securities broker had hired the lawyer who was connected with one of the top Minneapolis law firms.

Personally I would try to get the most connected lawyer you can find and afford.

Really good law firms usually do not need to advertise.

The Mustang Ranch doesn't need to advertise.

Must've learned that defense from the B. Madoff wing of the law school!

My Dad would go up to Mustang Ranch as part of investigations into instances of arson of various houses of ill repute in Nevada. Probably looking to get tips on who was talking about what. Brothel owners would sometimes burn down their businesses after hours to collect on the insurance.

Right on!!

I would suggest to do a bit more research so you have a better understanding of what he does and the kind of help for the US military. I hope you will never need and “ambulance chaser” as you called it, when someone wreck your life in a split second, when not your fault.

If I ever get into serious trouble, I will settle for the slipperiest, bottom feeding lawyer.
