zipp51 Posted August 4, 2002 Posted August 4, 2002 In April in Fayetteville, N.C., Shirley Brigman Turriff, 63, was sentenced to six years in prison for embezzling $1.1 million from the law firm for which she had been office manager (Anderson Johnson), which had hired her shortly after she had been convicted for embezzling from her first employer. Anderson Johnson was fully aware that she was an embezzler when it hired her because one of its lawyers had defended her in that earlier case. [Raleigh News & Observer, 5-1-02]

piaqt Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 You Know You Need A New Lawyer When...- When the prosecutors see who your lawyer is, they high-five each other.- During your initial consultation he tries to sell you Amway.- He tells you that his last good case was a "Budweiser."- During the trial you catch him playing his Gameboy.- He asks a hostile witness to "pull my finger."- Every couple of minutes he yells, "I call Jack Daniels to the stand!" and proceeds to drink a shot.- He frequently gives juror No. 4 the finger.- He places a large "No Refunds" sign on the defense table.
