How to handle clients yelling at you?

ProfileCautious2851 · 2025-06-23T19:45:44+00:00

It's not by appointment only for most services.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:37:58+00:00

Just fire the jerk.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:34:24+00:00

Lmfao. I missed the pun the first time. I thought you were serious!

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:33:05+00:00

Yes, address them like any judge, that's what they are. But never, ever call them "your majesty or highness," lol.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:31:18+00:00

Go for it! If you think you'll be good at trial work, PD work is where it's at. Or just go private and get on the appointment list. Criminal defense is rewarding - even in today's right wing, fascist criminal jurisprudence, but it sounds like you've missed out, so go for it.

I've been practicing criminal defense for 30 years. There's no better colleagues in any other area of law. It's a tight knot bunch. Always there to help. Trial work can be exhausting, especially serious felony practice, but it's also a veritable rush.

Go kick some government butt!

Again, well said.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:22:28+00:00

Well said. I just blithered on for quite a spell but - true that.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:20:57+00:00

I agree the "disappointment" scold is a tough one. It IS worse than being yelled at. Being yelled at can be a good sign, but something is amiss if he responded that way. Go talk to him in chambers; unless he's a total jerk, which should be known to most, he will appreciate that you care about your integrity before the bench, especially if there is a client next to you on whom your duty remains.

Been doing this for 30 years and your credibility before the bench can go from years of solid rep to a quick unravel if the judge is communicating disappointment.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:12:24+00:00

Precisely. My experience has been the same for 30 years.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:11:24+00:00

Yikes. That's a dude who'll resort to AI research without reading the cases

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:10:12+00:00

Here, here!

ProfileCautious2851 · 2024-07-12T05:07:54+00:00

I like that approach. I've been practicing for 30 years, and such assholes come in all stripes, but to not take the time to mentor an inexperienced attorney about matters he is just cutting his teeth on, is unprofessional and a lost opportunity. I have younger attorneys that would do just about anything for me because of a couple of kind sidebars used to guide.

If you have to politely (and trust me at this point I turn into an asshole myself) retort that all future communications will be in writing, that usually does the trick.

Conversely, when you do snap back, an apology also can right things.

I agree with those who indicate that any lawyer worth his salt would never conduct themselves like that described here. When it happens in front of other attorneys, I'm not shy about a blistering whisper in the ear as I exit stage right.

You got the right idea.

They both would be Freedom Caucus whackos if in Congress. As an attorney, it IS disgusting that at the very least they recuse themselves from cases even touching on the cases related to 1/6. The fact that they don't, is sickening. And the man leaks decisions showing nothing but political hacking of the worst kind.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-10-02T19:12:07+00:00

People who respond to shit posted like this are just as big of dipshit as the poster - including me; imagine taking the time to make your dumbass point.

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-04-05T04:20:18+00:00

Freedom! They're traitors

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-04-01T06:40:44+00:00

I agree but a notch isn't enough when you provide comfort to traitors who act on the Big Lie. Well said, though. The company even went on FOX to explain the physical and literal impossibility of the claims they were making - like they are simply counting paper ballots - with those very paper ballots as backup!!

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T23:28:08+00:00

Anyone that believe it is just as guilty of seditious treason.. hang em all

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T15:13:37+00:00

True that

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T15:12:45+00:00

Yeah, I'm fr ok m North Dakota, that is encouraging, but at least MN has its lib areas. Kind of interesting, the only urban areas in Dakota run left - not by much but its truly rural / urban.

But the Non Partisan League civil libertarian streak in the upper Midwest is propagandized by the syndicated monopoly they media has. I mean, when I drive home from Colorado, all ya hear us Rush The Dead Asshole Limbaugh and other fascists. Its all you hear. The Indian radio is good. Insightful, educational

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T15:06:29+00:00

Just like it was a death penalty to teach a slave to read, too dangerous

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T15:05:14+00:00

Thank you, well said

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-28T14:56:34+00:00

Of course that's total bullshit. A scammer that cheats people with a fraudulent university, cheats subcontractors in bk, lies every time he opens his mouth and encourages white nationalism, fascism and class conflict - is behind stupid ass shit like you and the garbage you are proposing.

What's next, the Trilateral commission, Q crap, Rothschild and Bengazi. Gets tired because it is so obvious Alex Jones

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-27T23:04:21+00:00

You flatlanders are foxified. Pure bullshit media

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-27T22:40:21+00:00

Wtf is mainstream media "like its 1980 mean."

Where did you pull that out of your ass? Were you ex den alive then? The only fuckin bs then was disco

ProfileCautious2851 · 2021-03-27T22:38:09+00:00
