Boy, ain't that the truth.

Sometimes bad lawyers create bad clients.

But usually bad clients create bad lawyering.

Clients come in and ask me "what will this divorce cost." I say it depends on what you and your spouse do. If you decide to cooperate I can get you divorced for under $2,000. If you decide to fight, you can spend as much as you want to, but if you want to fight seriously, count on $30,000 and up, maybe way up. They all say sure, we'll cooperate. But do they?

Let's just put it this way. If all my clients and their opponents were rational, reasonable people, I wouldn't even be close to being able to retire in a year or two. As it is, hammock in the sun here I come!
