Can I call a lawyer on behalf of someone else?
Yes, but if later someone asks the person talking to the lawyer what was said, there will be a fight over whether the conversation is protected by the attorney client privilege. So the lawyer will probably not discuss some things.
Can you date your client?
No Policy. When a company has no policy against dating a customer or client, that doesn’t necessarily mean that anything goes. Dating relationships between employees and clients can endanger the business relationship between the company and the client.
What happens when someone hires a lawyer to threaten you?
You have to understand this fundamentally: When someone hires a lawyer to threaten you, he’s not hiring someone to figure out the legal matters involved, he’s hiring someone to threaten you. Crushing you and making you bend is the first priority, the law is just a tool.
Why do people ask me if I’m a lawyer?
Me: And you can tell her I said, “Hi.” Okay, maybe it’s my fault. I was too polite. I’m always polite when people ask. I don’t go off on rambling diatribes when guys like Dave waste my time with dumb questions because they know I’m a lawyer.
What should I do if my boyfriend let his friend sleep between US?
As soon as the friend put himself between you two. You should have gone to the couch if you were that uncomfortable with him spooning you. The boyfriend could have had a serious problem the next day if friend would have forced himself on her. And the friend would just say you invited me to sleep with you two.
What should I not do if I Am Not Your Lawyer?
I will not give you my best legal advice. I will not make a phone call or write a letter on your behalf. I will not look over your lease. I will not “make a small change” to your will. I will not answer the phone at some ungodly hour when you’re stuck in the pokey. I will not do any of these things because you are not my client.

Can a lawyer attack you on the phone?
Attorneys are very uncomfortable about being attacked personally, and they’re not used to it. You have a lot of leverage over them by going after their license and their reputation, two things they guard dearly. They just won’t risk anything important on a bluff.
