TRICK OR TREAT! The editors of the Halloween edition of the Lawyers' Lawyer Newsletter invite you to enjoy frightening tales of shocking assaults by non-clients on an unsuspecting law firm; a lawyer's nail-biting escape from a disqualification motion thanks only to a less-thandiligent client; the slow motion nightmare of a lawyer's desperate and sometimes failed struggle for freedom when a client can't be contacted; and the gruesome results of an overly broad scope of engagement description.
