You screwed up my firm name, which you actually invented.

It's Ivytalk, Steinmetz, Schlump & Goldstein. Goldberg didn't make partner, and Fein works for a competitor.

And you're wrong.

We represent the NBA!

BTW, I don't think beastiality is necessarily any more abnormal than homosexuality is. Both are equally inconsistent with the underlying basis for sexually motivated behavior. Favoring copulation with female dogs, for instance, has exactly the same potential for expressing your genetic material in the next generation as favoring copulation with human members of your own sex does.

Now, if you want to argue that homosexuality is more common than beastiality is you are probably correct. But I'm just talking about having a misdirected sex drive. The sex drive is entirely misdirected in both cases.

you were raped by a Mustang weren't you?

I'm taking on a new case involving issues on which IT is a highly-regarded authority, and he quite graciously pointed me to some cases to get me started. His guidance is greatly appreciated. The time he spent helping me would have ordinarily cost several hundred dollars, and by giving me a jump start, he saved my client several thousands of dollars.

I'm a highly regarded authority on confidentiality issues. Your use of an unsecured public message board as a communication medium violates several ethical principles.

An attorney should consult with a client before communicating with the client by unencrypted e-mail.[1] It is not necessary to obtain express consent but it is necessary to consult with the client about the risks of communicating by unencrypted e-mail before doing so. American Bar Association Formal Opinion 99-413 concluded that communication with a client by unencrypted e-mail does not violate the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. In reaching that conclusion the ABA cautioned:

The conclusions reached in this opinion do not, however, diminish a lawyer's obligation to consider with her client the sensitivity of the communication, the costs of its disclosure, and the relative security of the contemplated medium of communication. Particularly strong protective measures are warranted to guard against the disclosure of highly sensitive matters. Those measures might include the avoidance of e-mail, [footnote omitted] just as they would warrant the avoidance of the telephone, fax, and mail. See Model Rule 1.1 and 1.4(b). The lawyer must, of course, abide by the client's wishes regarding the means of transmitting client information. See Model Rule 1.2(a).

E-mail communications have become widespread but, from an attorney ethics perspective, it is probably not safe to assume that clients have an adequate understanding of the risks involved in communication by e-mail. In particular, it seems unlikely that clients will identify the risk that e-mail will be accessed by others who have legitimate access to a shared computer or network. Requests for informal advisory opinions, from attorneys whose clients have accessed materials on a legitimately shared computer, reinforce the concern that clients may not understand some of the risks.

Many e-mail attorney-client communications involve relatively innocuous information and do not present a great concern even if they are intercepted. On the other hand, any communication from an attorney that can be accessed by others may be of concern in some situations. For example, a client who is considering filing for dissolution could be significantly impacted if any communication from the attorney is received on a computer shared with the client’s spouse. Therefore, in order to be sufficient, consultation with an existing client prior to communicating by e-mail should take into consideration the nature of the client’s legal matter and the environment in which the client sends and receives e-mail. In some situations, similar concerns can arise regarding communications by regular mail or telephone.

Yes, I know, you read a website and now consider yourself an expert on the subject -- again.
