In one of my cases, opposing counsel is a young L.A.-based attorney with his own web site. I decided to check it out recently, because at the beginning of the matter I had and called him on it due to his posting of testimonials from judicial officers, that made it appear as if judges were endorsing him to the public (Kit's eyes have probably grown wide and she is shaking her head, no, no . . .).
Good news - the testimonials from the judges are gone. But I did notice this blurb in his "Our Attorneys" section (there is only one attorney, by the way):
He was one of several trial attorneys involved in prosecuting the 1994 Northridge Earthquake litigation cases in 2002 wherein he represented over 30 households that were defrauded by insurance companies in the wake of the 1994 Northridge Earthquake.
I think that's fantastic . . . since he's only been licensed to practice law since 2004. He can time travel!
Oh, and dude, it is obvious that you held out your twee, little Coolpix and snapped the shot of you that you're using on the website. Next time, ask a friend to pose you for a more professional look.

I read the first sentence and totally knew who it was. Ha ha!
hahahahahahah
Oh sorry Digi..........didn't realize you were serious !!
I hate to speak ill of another of God's creatures...but wow, what a poseur.
Free advice, Mr. Opposing Counsel: I could care less where you've traveled. Cut it out of your bio. The fluency in Spanish is relevant, but you might want to mention it in Spanish...if you're planning on marketing yourself to folks who need that skill of yours, you might want to add a Spanish section to your site. 'Cause if I can't read English, I'm not going to read through your bio to find out if you speak my language.

Maybe he should photo shop in a bushier moustache....make him look more like a grownup?
You can see the camera in the reflection. Terrible website.
Kit's eyes did not grow wide...they were squinty and rolled heavenward because I was LAUGHING MY ASS OFF!!!!
What a freakshow - hope it gets surreptitiously passed on if not to the CA Bar, then to the judicial officers in question. Hee hee hee!!!
How much would it cost have a briefcase sized poster emblazoned on your kit, showing his webmug and his Est, in (whatever year he created time travel), followed with an expiration date? May as well throw in a *Do Not Open......EVAH! No Such An Emergency Exists!* (at least on this planet)
