Instead, he just sounded like a...an ambulance chaser with dollar signs in his eyes, drool on the side of his mouth and an itchy bank account. If helping people is his schtick, then help all the folks injured pro bono. Maybe he doesn't know Latin, either ;}swissmisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11091563100968996825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-69340143223721245722007-08-16T21:43:00.000-05:002007-08-16T21:43:00.000-05:00Anita ~ Thank you...I actually didn't want to use ...Anita ~ Thank you...I actually didn't want to use the term! LOL! There's a related term I'm certain you know about: running, or "using runners". That's more associated with chiro clinics. And a friend of mine actually met a chiro like this who tried to use her condition as a "work comp" thing and tried to refer her to an attorney. She was VERY uncomfortable and insisted her injury was NOT work related, did NOT want an attorney, etc. <BR/><BR/>I encouraged her to report the chiro to NICB...she didn't. <BR/><BR/>* sigh *Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-79707545033254690652007-08-16T21:01:00.000-05:002007-08-16T21:01:00.000-05:00Adoro, what you describe used to be called "ambula...Adoro, what you describe used to be called "ambulance chasing." (I got into big trouble once with a plaintiff lawyer for using that term.) It is part of the perversion of the system into a huge lottery where somebody always wins -- and the winner is almost always the lawyers, on both sides. The system has ceased to be about righting wrongs, or making injured people whole.<BR/><BR/>I prefer criminal law: at least it's a more honest type of robbery.Anita Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11305092097247290243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-28523141619595274722007-08-16T17:06:00.000-05:002007-08-16T17:06:00.000-05:00So, these 'contract' experts [attorneys] have let ...So, these 'contract' experts [attorneys] have let a contract [of a different kind] on a certain 'ex' insurance insider in the NW sections of the twin-cities metro area.<BR/><BR/>The old axiom still holds true ...
