James Morgan, Attorney Forces you to pay $1.49 for an answer . After you've entered your information you have to pay an additional $49 to actually get an answer. And you're immediately signed up for a monthly membership at $19.99/month unless you call and cancel. Louisville, KY Internet

*Consumer Comment: Nothing special

I found the site online and proceeded to type my question to get a legal answer. After spending about 15 minutes typing out the question they ask for $1.49 to get your answer. After you enter your card information they then tell you that an additional $49 is needed in order to get your answer and they also sign you up for a monthly $19.99 fee that you have to call and cancel. Total ripoff/scam.

There is a common practice. When you deal with lawyers, just keep the following steps I invented:

  • Your lawyer says your divorce will be completed in six months. Figure on eighteen months – and double the estimated price.
  • Your lawyer says he has an airtight defense against a coming lawsuit that could wipe you out. Fine and well. Just in case he doesn't, do you have an assets protection program?
  • Your lawyer says you will win the lawsuit you filed hands down. Fine. Just don't start spending the money before you collect it. (He did mention that collecting a judgement can be harder than getting a judgement ... didn't he?)
  • Your lawyer says the will he wrote can protect your wishes when you are dead. Right. Consider giving away property while you are still alive, or putting it into trusts that are directly accessible by the beneficiaries.
  • Your lawyer assures you the jury will acquit. Consider Brazil. Consider how the family will get along if you are behind bars for two years.
  • Not all lawyers are "can-do," though. There is also the "can't-do" lawyer, who has a reason why you can't do what you intend, no matter what you intend. The can't-do lawyer is on a permanent bummer. These lawyers can be a cheap source of information. Since they always point out the problems right away, you can get to work on non-legal solutions. At the least you are better prepared to handle a can-do lawyer.
  • In business can't-do lawyers can be a valuable resource. Flip open the rolodex. Call the can't do lawyer first. Think it out. Then call the can-do lawyer to do the work.
