Now that's what I call chutzpah

Don't you hate it when there is a good story, but you can't tell it? This is one of those situations.

Let's put it this way, once upon a time I had a client. This client was for referred to me by [classified agency]. I worked for this client. I did very good work in concert with another attorney for this client. We got this client more than they could hope for given the situation that they were in when they were referred to me and this other attorney.

So what was our thanks? The threat of a malpractice suit. To this day I'm still not sure what the malpractice would've been, but this client was threatening me with a malpractice suit.

Today I got a phone call. It was the same client, the one who would threaten me with a malpractice suit, asking if I would be happy to represent him in another action.

Talk about chutzpah!

LOL. I'm so keeping your info in case I ever need to sue anyone - partly just so I can torment you after.
