I see the appeal, but I'm definitely for not wasting any more time than is necessary on these parasites.

If I were practicing, I would be suuuuper hesitant to do that in any half reasonable jurisdiction. Bar associations (and judges) take client fees pretty seriously and attorneys are already obligated to review everything (even if it's a fiction we all turn a blind eye to).

I feel it. To be entirely honest, it was already probably sent by an underpaid secretary or paralegal. Now it's just more apparent that they have too large a caseload.

If it impacts the case, you can see about having them hand it off to another lawyer, but that is definitely something to be strategic about (especially depending on the nature of the work).

Most attorneys are willing to pick up a case or contract work with a sort of finders fee to the first attorney that depends on how much work was done before the handoff.

Not sure if it'll work for you, but I'd try an honest conversation as a lot of the times, attorneys are aware that certain cases/clients aren't the right fit or they may be unable to handle the caseload.

Yeah, this guy is trash. Vibe businessing needs to go.

Yes. At least the attempt.

Yeah, I get that, I just also am not sure they're doing such great business online either, they had serious issues even before and after the meme stock craze.

Mostly just ticked at people enshitifying functioning businesses.

Edit: To your oversaturation point, definitely one in my immediate area was more than enough. They also closed one down around thirty minutes from me which is kinda rough for that town and the employees there.

Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. I'm just saying these fuckers are parasites and I'm in favor of bringing back the original meaning of "poison pill" for these moneyed trash bags.

How about, and hear me out here... How about, we jettison Ryan Cohen into the sun.

Genuinely, two out of the three GameStops near me just closed for good. How is that the sign of a company that could manage a hostile takeover of a major industry player from the dotcom era?
