<p>Spot on, Romani. </p>
<p>No argument started, cobrat, unless you did it. Simply said I didnt believe it. And not snide at all- simply blowing the BS whistle. But your calling attorneys slackers or incompetent, or relating it to attorneys who might fall asleep in the courtroom, now THAT is argumentative. And insulting. There is ZERO evidence of that here. As HImom said, the attorney would go over this with the client. Collegetime’s article speaks to this. But of course some firm attorneys in the past would have discussed the specifics of some case’s non-disclosure clause with you. Of course they would… :-" </p>
<p>Unless you were in on the negotiations re: this case you have no idea if they felt the terminology was too stringent or not, and why, or whether they did challenge the wording. The linked article (thank you collegetime for the good link) addresses that. And its not believable that you would have any idea what some attorney you worked with at some point in time would think about the verbiage of this clause in this case. </p>
