Serial Client

Hoh! Counsel!
The judge granted the motion so why did he award costs against me?

It's the timing
The timing of the request for amendment
I've explained this to you already

No, but I don't get it
Why should I be paying when this guy has not been coming to court?
And

The court awarded costs against him last month too, remember?
I've told you costs are discretionary

Counsel, this is unfair
Do you know how hard I work?
He's owed me this money for four years!

I understand. I understand
But please, don't go posting about this case online like the last time

Hmm
What about Facebook?

I'm not really a tech expert but I'm sure that also qualifies as online

Anyway, I have this other case
Trespass to chatter

Trespass to what?

Like trespass to chattel
But the tortfeasor rudely interrupted my conversation

Tortfeasor?
I see you already have your cause of action all figured out
I hope you've figured out my fees too?

So you'll take it? Can we do a success fee?

I've already told you that I don't work like that!

Oh, I beg

You relax
Send me the brief facts
I'll assess if there's even a case there
One of these days I'll add a funeral fee because these cases will just kill me

Counsel Counsel
I will send you the details
Don't worry
I will sort you something small so you can start working on it

I hear you
I hear you
Anyway I have to go back inside the court
I have another matter to attend to

Counsel! Counsel!
