Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 20, 2012

It’s just a put on… lawyers don’t leave any bones.

Or the politics profession…

Must be a divorce attorney ….

I’m not sure what’s better the comic or the comments, but so TRUE.

Lawyers are proof that some humans from the Tyrannosaaurus rex.

@JohnnyDiego -That’s why it’s useless to become part of a class action suit.But you’d better believe the lawyers made plenty of $$$ in the process. Win or lose, they always get paid.

I’d have to conclude that this was a pretty smart blonde; probably an attorney, herself.

Don’t forget to keep track of billable hours.

I’ve always believed that in all phylogeny there is no precedent for the ontogeny of a lawyer. Guess I was wrong. Thanks, Mr. Miller.

Ih my experience as a surprised member of the “class” in a few class-action suits, I have come to believe that the law firm’s actual customer is not the people who were cheated, exposed to dangerous products, or whatever, but in fact the companies that did the deed. In return for a fee that, while hefty, is still pennies on the dollar compared to the company’s actual liability, the law firm gets the people who were wronged to accept pennies on the dollar, thus immunizing the company against its true liability. Win-win for the law firm and the company; only the victims—who, of course, must settle for the class-action payment or spend (by their standards) a fortune to fight bring an individual suit—lose.

Lawyers aren’t professionals, they still have to practice . . . ☻

“ok. so my journey is a lemon. what’s my payout if i join the class, and what is yours projected to be?”Click.

Naked kid. Really?

As Shakespeare said, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” Or maybe Danae’s new religion could ban them….

I just got a check for $70 as compensation in a class action suit against AT&T. Something about slow Internet connections. I guess the lawyers made out like bandits on that one.

Hate lawyers, but…when I’ve needed one and was able to find an honest one, they have been invaluable! They do good work when they care.

I’d make the lawyers and nukes comparison, but I’ve already said it a few times before.

Years ago, my friends agreed to a “friendly” divorce, share and share their assets, no fuss, no muss. Then she was advised to get a lawyer. Soon they both had lawyers. Keeping it simple, when they were done, they had a divorce, and the lawyers walked off with over 70% of their joint assets. so the ’toon’s about right?

Wonder what’s goin on at the Hollywood agent cave? They’re a lot faster than anyone behind a bar.

Steal their Food….No, we don’t do that…We are much smarter….We grab their oil and other natural resources…

Yep – all true. Dont forget lawyer is olde englishe spelling for LIAR

The problem, of course, is because lawyers aren’t compensated based on performance. You win, you get paid. You don’t, you don’t.

I know 4 lawyers. For many years. They’ve ALL been helpful – NONE has been greedy or dishonest. Am I THAT rare?

Unfortunately, it is 99% of the lawyers that give the rest of us a bad reputation.

Yep, pretty much.
