Here is another reason why you should keep a close watch on your (big) law firm's billing practices: lawyers cheat! If you don't believe me, check out this story:
Today's WSJ carries a story about bill padding at the Chicago office of law firm Holland & Knight. Apparently the junior partner in charge of a trial blew the whistle on the senior billing partner, who was inflating the bills.
Actually, if the client had followed my tips in this earlier post, I think he or she would have spotted the fraud without the junior partner's help.


Spendid Hash Browns you are incorrect about the prediction date of peak oil saying it was back in the 1970's.
