It isn’t about WHAT is being done, but rather WHAT SHOULD LEGALLY BE DONE.
You are part of a profession where mistakes by unqualified people happen on a daily basis. I suggest you double your malpractice insurance. Lawsuits based on a contingency recovery are a dime a dozen and cost nothing to file.
Run along.
“ Lawsuits based on a contingency recovery are a dime a dozen and cost nothing to file.”

You might be correct about that 20 years ago with lawsuits brought against a big business like Walmart.
But not anymore.
Lawyers want their fees and the depos aren’t free either.
Of course you could file Pro-Per and represent yourself. But as the old saying goes, “you’ll have a fool for a client.”
My brother is my legal counsel………I assure you, things aren’t the way you think they are nor are things the way they were.
Juries are unpredictable…….Attorneys have realized this decades ago and stopped the “I only get paid if I win” mindset.
They want up front money.
Judges are unpredictable too. So if you think a bench trial might be the solution, it’s not.
Another T.V. Show hoax is collecting your Lawyer Fees from the losing Defendants…………….that doesn’t happen anymore either. When it did happen, it was more for larger suits between multi Corps where fees can reach hundreds of thousands.
If you sued me, you’d be suing a huge Metropolitan City.
Good luck with that. After about 3-5 years and tons of cash, y’all might reach a settlement.
Hope I don’t forget to keep up with it. Oughta be interesting.
