In case you thought lawyers were professionals...

I had to reprint this letter from opposing counsel I received today. I have been laughing out loud about it all day. This attorney is NOT getting the fact that I am replacing an attorney who has just left, and of course her last month things got behind because she is well "outta here" and not keeping up which happens. Well I guess he is not waiting for me to learn the case since I just opened the file for the first time Friday and this is the letter I got today. He is still referring to me as the OLD attorney's name. Somehow this guy thinks this passes for professional talk. What do you think?

Dear.... I have not heard back from you regarding my proposal to use an AME on all specialities. Neither have I seen you take any action to get the Panel QME process back on track. You have been adequately noticed of the 5/31/07 MSC on the issue of total disability. You can ignore this if you want, but I would suggest you GET OFF YOUR BUTT and make some decisions on this case. I will oppose any motion to continue for any alleged failure to secure evidence. You have plenty of time to do so. Very Truly Yours....

Funny thing is I just sent him a letter on Friday addressing his issues...but this was too funny. Just think he had to go to school to learn to talk like that.

LOL!

I have to know if he says anything to you when he realizes that he spoke just a tad too soon!
