Dear So and So

[derailed]

On behalf of my profession, I'm sorry. Too often, people only have interactions with the worst among us. There is no excuse for the way you were treated, and it is not right.

The problem seems to be that we only have interactions when we are in a position of weakness. Some rare representatives of your trade may take advantage of that.

This had to do with one supercilious dolt who happens to have been available when I was too inexperienced to know how to shop for a proper attorney to protect my interests.

I have had many wonderful interactions with those who practice law in the years since. This one buffoon happened to be an attorney, and happened to continue the ruination of my life, but he's not All lawyers.

Now I know to find a bike lawyer, and where to look for one if I need one. Thank goodness for the internet.

I have needed to let this rant out for many years, and someone else's recent crash post brought it back to me. Thanks for the opportunity to vent, but please don't take the topic as any kind of statement of mistrust or batch-labeling.

Thank you.

No worries. Feel free to vent - I didn't take your post as judgment on all lawyers

It's one of my issues. I just really hate to hear about other lawyers taking advantage of folks in those kinds of situations. It's a very sad fact of life that just shouldn't be. And all too often, that's the only experience people have. I'm very glad that you've had other, better experiences - I just really wish those who acted as that attorney did would not longer be permitted to practice.
