Yeah, good luck with that.

Of course I've met many lawyers who probably thought they had "superior legal minds"... <_<

Hilarious.

Did his "superior legal mind" articulate why he deserved $25 million in compensatory damages for a standard wrongful dismissal claim after less than a year's employment?  :hmm:

QuoteBefore his career in the law, Mr. Berry worked for several years as a software engineer in Silicon Valley. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Law and began his legal career at the "big-law" firm of Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman. He quickly discovered that the emphasis in "big-law" firms on generating billable hours rather than on applying creativity and intelligence to devising unorthodox and cutting-edge legal strategies left Mr. Berry wasting his talents. Mr. Berry became a lawyer to fight for justice and to use his powers for good. He started this law firm to lend his abilities to clients who need the highest legal talent possible.
