I recently heard the unfortunate story of a lady who was trying to fire her lawyer. He had her case for over two years and had done nothing with it. She was completely disabled as a result of the accident but even that didn’t get the lawyer motivated to move forward with her case.

Then I learned of how she met her lawyer. Shortly after her car accident, she received a call from a chiropractor offering her a “Free Initial Examination.” She was in pain and it sounded too good to be true, so she went in for a visit.

She agreed to go in for her free appointment. The chiropractor seemed nice enough. Then, in the middle of the first treatment session, the chiropractor asked her if she had a lawyer yet. When she answered “no,” the chiropractor insisted that she meet his friend, the lawyer, who just happened to be in the neighborhood and would be stopping by as soon as her session ended.

Apparently, the chiropractor and the lawyer had a secret agreement and since the lawyer couldn’t call the lady directly without risking being disbarred, he had the chiropractor do his soliciting for him.
