Making It Legal:
1.I’m eager to get started right away. So am I. Is your initial deposit for fees as forthcoming as your desire to get started?
2. I just need something simple. I know you’d like something simple, but when you’re entering into a strategic alliance with an out-of-state company to market and develop intellectual property to children, there are a couple of issues that need to be handled delicately. A one-page agreement won’t protect you.
3. I need this done yesterday. No, you don’t. Unless someone is about to hang on Death Row, or you’re going to run up against an inviolable statutory deadline, it’s not an emergency. Not that I’ll sit on it, but working until 3am because you woke up yesterday and decided you needed to sell your business today is not my problem. Your failure to plan is not my emergency.
4. This wasn’t my fault. There are at least three versions of a dispute: yours, theirs, and The Truth, which lies somewhere in between. It’s exceedingly rare that someone has been an angel from heaven and the other side Hades Incarnate. If I don’t know your downside, it’s hard to advise you properly.
5. The last lawyer was an idiot, but I hear you’re terrific. I’m not a gambling woman, but I’d bet odds in Vegas that you said that to the last lawyer, too. If you’ve hired and fired more than one other person before me for the same project, you’re probably no better than my philandering college boyfriend who left a trail of broken hearts. And unpaid debts.

Great post. I’ve heared all this phrases. Or something very close.
