You have to love HR

Best day of my life was calling an attorney an "ambulance chaser" in a roomful of attorneys during a deposition.

Always brings a smile on my face, I wouldn't refer to him as Mr. X only that ambulance chaser, the room loved it.

Really "ambulance chaser" is only an insult applicable to personal injury attorneys. Most of them are prohibited by their state's ethics rules from actually soliciting accident victims in hospitals etc. It isn't like in the movies. Anyway, if one of the people I sued called me an "ambulance chaser" (I've never done 1 single personal injury case in my career). I would just shrug it off and let them have what they think was a zing in on me. Hey, whatever makes them feel like they have a little power in the situation.

My dad tells me all the time of how he told off the opposing attorney for one of his divorces while he was on the witness stand and the people in court laughed. I don't remind him that the opposing attorney managed to get a verdict whereby my dad lost his house, his cars, hell...everything...lol. He feels like he won by making some smart ass comment to the attorney. My bet is that the attorney didn't give two shits.

Did he win?

no scumbag personal injury lawyers never go to trial, they just look to settle.

Typically, they are at the bottom of their class at the worst schools - and couldn't win a 2nd grade spelling bee.

so, he got money from your insurance carrier without having to go to trial.

to a lawyer that is a win. lol.

sorry to say, but at the end of the day he cashed his check and didn't give a shit what you called him.

and even if personal injury lawyers tend to be at the bottom of their classes, they have to take and pass the same bar exam as everyone else in law school. Trust me, it is quite a difficult exam. So, I would imagine they are still far above average intelligence, even if they aren't as polished as one would expect from a lawyer.

Just sayin' =-)

The problem is you can take the bar a ton of times, the percent passing ultimately is pretty high. He got nothing
