All those "pileon" copycat law firms are giving lawyers their bad name...Interesting about Berman however....wouldn't think he would take a case unless it had merit...

Roger, were you able to find out what the situation is if one had GNET before Jan 2000, and it turned to INSP....

Do shareholders have to join the suit, or does it affect everyone that holds stock?

Here's a picture of Berman...can't get the article, they want you to order it...BUT you can access the lawyer jokes....here they are....

Top Lawyers

What do you have when 100 lawyers are buried to their necks in sand? Not enough sand.

OK, OK. We've all heard the lawyer jokes, but can you blame us? Every one of these quips, jests and ruthless jabs at the legal profession came from the law community—from court reporters, judges and, yes, attorneys. But let¹s face it: It is no laughing matter when you really need a legal expert to get you out of a bind. Perhaps you need to be freed from a sticky situation, or you want assistance in sorting through a mind-numbing but binding document. Or maybe someone is out to get your money, or your driver¹s license is in jeopardy or your high-flying dot-com has just nose-dived. If you have to make that one phone call for help, you want to be sure whoever¹s on the other end of the line knows his or her stuff.

To read our compilation of the top 92 vote-getters practicing law in King County, pick up a copy of the January/February 2001 issue. For our list of our favorite lawyer jokes, read on.

³Shut up," barked the devil, jabbing him with his pitchfork. "Who are you to question that woman's punishment?"
