RedskinzOwnU Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 This may be of some interest to skins fans since it relates to the law firm representing the Redskins in the trademark dispute. Quinn Emanuel is the well-known litigation firm that won the case. After receiving a firm-wide e-mail about the victory, one first-year attorney at the firm responded with an unprofessional rant that questioned the morality of the decision. It appears that he has severely embarrassed himself in the process. You can read all the juicy details by following the link. http://abovethelaw.com/2009/05/quinn_emanuel_redskins_reservations.php If this belongs in the tailgate, please move accordingly.

DButz65 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I started reading this and got about ΒΌ of the way through.... then realized how much of a douche most lawyer's are or can be :hysterical: These guys have horrible grammar to boot heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinzOwnU Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 I would say that this particular lawyer's grammar is bad. But, he is clearly not cut out to be a lawyer by demonstrating such a complete lack of discretion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKM311 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Wow. I would hate to be a Partner of that firm. You can't fire him, but boy you can stand him either. That guy seriously needs to get a grip in life. I understand he has his views in life and no one is asking him to change them, but there was no need for all those responses. You have a job. DO IT!

Stugein Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 ...he is clearly not cut out to be a lawyer by demonstrating such a complete lack of discretion. I would agree and just add that anyone who would use the term "for reals" in a professional communication is not cut out to be a lawyer. How embarrassing for the firm.

BuryYourDuke Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Absolutely hysterical. This guy/girl is without a doubt the stupidest attorney on earth. You can feel the gooey idealism dripping off the posts...it makes me feel yucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 As a sit and read the communication between the two, i cant help constantly thinking "This new guy would be having such a better day/week if he would have just kept his mouth shut. He must really have loved his opinion." Its just another instance of better to say nothing and let people wonder as to how smart you are... then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Mad Mike Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I think the guy must be pretty sharp to have been hired as a lawyer at age 12. That is his age right? I don't know any adults that talk like that other than to get a laugh.:doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skin Deep Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I pretty much "get" what they're getting at, and they could very well have a point somewhere. But is this really the place to take up this debate?? I mean seriously....on company email in front of all your colleagues?? I started to feel embarrassed FOR the person.

GibbsFactor Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I would have so loved to have seen that. And to all the associates out there, stop sending internal memos and correspondences to Elle and ATL. Really, it's internal firm business. The IT departments get tasked with tracking your dumbasses down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
