Throwing this out there to the forum who may have had similar experiences. What do you think a fair contingency fee for a lawyer to charge for representation in a civil suit? I'm looking at an offer from one now who wants 40% if the defendant denies liability, 33% if they admit liability, and...

Guess those lucky pants were not so lucky after all. The fact that this case was not thrown out of court, that this person is even being considered for a position on the bench, and the fact he is allowed to basically terrorize the owners of the dry cleaner just has me shaking my head. Even...

assuming the truthers evidence is half as good as they claim it is, and the 9/11 comission report has been proven false and the nIST report proven to be a fabrication, what chrages can be filed against the disinfo agents who worked on those? can the members of the 9/11 comission be charged...

Marsden to act as lawyer for Saddam I wonder if Geoffrey Robertson will join the prosecution team.
