Unreasonable Attorney’s Fees

 

My subject title may be redundant but anyone interested in attorney’s fees and overbilling should read this:  http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/03/26/dla-piper-warns-employees-against-offensive-humor-in-e-mails/

I have to call out the Firm memo at end of the article.  Simply put, it is not good.  In addition to its awkward and wordy prose, it reads like shameless PR and focus group intellectual vomit.  If that wasn’t enough it also comes off as a strange form of admission.  Specifically, and this is a serious question, what would be funny about the emails if there wasn’t some truth in them?
