You're bolstering our case, J. Thanks, but we don't need the help.

Kind of reminds me of the short guy who challenged Abe Lincoln to a duel. Being the challengee, Abe had the choice of weapons. He chose sledgehammers....in six feet of water.

Haha, excellent. I hadn't heard that one, but I'll add it to my repertoire of Abe Lincoln illustrations.

Sorry for the delay...stepped out of the house to head out to work tonight (big law firms are sweat shops and operate 24 hrs)...actually, the big firms certainly hire attorneys to do pro bono work, but again, I don't expect legal aids to know this...but see, because you think you have all the answers and figure things out so well, you assume that my time on the forum was during work hours....I happen to work evenings.
It is good to be analytical, but you appear to overanalyze things.
Wrong again about why I reach the conclusions that I do.
1. Of course big legal forms do pro bono work! My guess is that the type of pro bono work you described doesn't go to the younger attorneys who most likely must get in a huge amount of billable hours so they can keep their jobs and make partner down the road.
2. I would be SHOCKED if one could be a young attorney at a big BIG law firm and have enough hours in the day to post on this forum regardless of when they were actually at the firm or posting.
3. I am not a legal aid. The court-appointed work I do allows me to work with others who are least able to help themselves. My billed legal fees come from other areas of the law.

You may have to simplify this a bit, Newman.
