first (dream come true)

Lexus owners simply can't drive.

This is news? A partner gets into an accident, negligently, and we smear him and give him negative press on ATL?

Don't ruin lives unnecessarily, I'm sure it's already bad enough for him. What did you want, a public apology? He's a litigator, he's not going to admit sorrow or guilt with a suit pending.

They don't even make those cookies out of real Girl Scouts any more...

4. He was hopped up on Hillbilly Heroin. I wouldn't say it's negligent my friend.

Oxycontin is a hell of a drug.

Ho-hum fender bender lawsuit. I thought the general policy of this website and its commetariat was to blanche at any mention of "TTT" auto torts?

You're right. This wasn't funny; it was tragic. And an accident. And ATL's making light of it is disgusting. Did he have this coming to him because he's a partner at a large law firm? Or because he took prescribed medication? Or because he drives a Lexus? Shame on you.

4: I'd use "recklessly" rather than "negligently", but I suppose that's splitting hairs.

I could tell this wasn't written by MysTTTal without even looking at the byline....the humor didn't suck.

I wish I had some OC right now. I am bored.

Riseo O'Donnell was kicked out of the Girl Scouts when it was discovered she liked eating the Brownies.

This would never happen in Texas because the women are 3500 sq ft and everyone drives the fancier Lexis.

13, lol

Welcome to the internet, people. We're all public figures when we do something that's newsworthy (just like in the old days of print).

Also, he's a cautionary tale. Too many people drink & drive that putting his name out there as a cautionary tale will make other people check themselves before they wreck themselves (and others).

Finally, why the hell is this guy still practicing? I'm surprised no criminal charges are pending for the DUI and that the state bar didn't initiate a suspension and investigation. I'm assuming he didn't report it, which violates his duty to disclose ethical lapses on a year's basis (it's on most bar's renewal forms).

Too bad Dave Gordon wasn't a member of that girl scout troop.

11, I could tell this was not written by MystTTal because it did not involve either racism or sexism

This isn't funny, amusing, or interesting. It's just a sad situation for all involved. ATL can do better.

Sotomayor ate an entire girl scout troop once, just because they were white.

8- "Ho-hum fender bender lawsuit" Did you read the whole story? The guy was doped up and crashed his car into a table full of girl scouts and the mother of one of the girl scouts had her leg amputated as a result.

I understand that you don't want to waste your time reading about two cars that collide in a parking lot and the ambulance chasing attorneys from 8th-tier law schools who are busy smearing the parties- indeed to post such an abominable tale would be an absolute insult to the thousands of talented and accomplished attorneys who visit this hallowed site every day.

But again, this story wasn't a ho-hum fender bender- if you were not laughing by the end of it, you haven't been practicing very long

19, agreed. But the girl scout picture is so cute, how could they resist?

The mother was asking for it.

There, I said it.

21-you're wrong. This is pretty much a run of the mill auto accident. No interesting issues of comparative/contrib., no interesting issues on the coverage side, not overly novel injuries, therefore, not news.

This makes me feel icky. Leave the dude alone.

These comments are not interesting. You people neither funny nor witty.

David Carradine was just found dead in Thailand. He hung himself.

This story involves a partner at a major law firm doing some incredibly stupid (and awful). Of course it's a subject of interest to ATL readers.

The real story is that this partner didn't blame the mother and her daughter for having been in the way of his car.

24 - You must be new to ATL. This blog covers lawyers, especially partners at big firms, especially when they do horrible or embarrassing things. It is not a blog devoted to substantive issues in negligence or insurance coverage law.

You must be a troll. I am going to try hard to ignore you now.

Note the sick irony of the girl scout's picture: she's standing on one leg. Ha ha?

Paul E.B. Glad...Seriously? E gonna B not-Glad after a fat settlement for the girl scout and the woman he turned into an amputee.

The real tragedy is the loss of consortium by the troop leaders husband. I mean, he could go an enjoy a good consortium, but amputee sex is pretty gross, (except in the Sopranos where is was awesome).

In any event, unless this poor guy has a latent stump fetish, I think its gonna be a tough sell in the coming years.

I'd sue the store, the architect who designed the plaza, girlscouts of america, and the doctor who prescribed the oxycontin.

The scary thing is this could happen to anyone. Who hasn't driven a car while on medication?

32-

E.B. not-that-concerned considering he is probably insured to the hilt.

Judge Halverson did this once with her Rascal and a frying pan. Took out an entire troop. All they found was some blood and a couple of crumbs.

this should not have been posted - it was a horrible accident and to mock someone over it is lame...find something worthwhile to post about.

37-- totally agree. there is no reason to post this.

This website is absolutely terrible. if you're going to joke about a woman's leg getting amputated and a small child being seriously injured, at least be funny. your blog is utterly worthless. get aids and die.

@37 - You must be from Texas.

this site is going down the tubes. all the law students was one thing, but posts like this and the refusal to take down some of those posts yesterday about the secretary's email is too much. time to check out the wsj blog

Typical Obama supporter. Drugged up, parking in handicapped spots illegally, and not knowing how to drive.

I guarantee there was a Obambam sticker on his bumper!

41.

What's the link to the WSJ blog? I have to agree that having a story written in this tenor about a group of girl scouts watching a mother crushed by a car and then having her legs amputated shows a complete lack of perspective.

If you saw an OxyContin crazed Sonnenschein partner mowing down Dave Gordon, would you intervene? I'd probably just grab some popcorn and enjoy the show.

24, this probably does involve an interesting coverage issue. Will his insurer disclaim coverage because he was intoxicated on narcotics when he was operating his Lexus or more accurately, when he exited his Lexus while it was still in gear? Also, was the oxycontin legally prescribed for him or was it illegal recreational use of the drug? If illegal drug use, how will that affect the coverage issues and will he be facing criminal charges? Also, if the accident was due to intoxication, will he be subjected to punitive damages? Don't criticize when you have falied to spot such obvious issues. Of course, substantive legal analysis is not the point of this tabloid.

I think this story is hysterical. I am also attracted to amputees and Girl Scouts.

James Colliton

Holy crap. 27 isn't lying.

In order to avoid coverage, they will probably have to show intent to cause injury (obviously depends on the policy language). Highly, highly doubtful that the insurance co. could meet that burden in a DJ.

Look, I actually find it pretty funny. Girl Scouts dont read this blog, so there's no crime in getting a little chuckle at the slapstick and dark humor value of the alleged tort. Would also be funny is he ran down a bus filled with nuns and orphans, or a car filled with puppies.

At least its not some moralistic whiny about slights to minorities from that fat bitch, Ellie.

16 - when someone thinks that every lawyer who screws up gets disbarred... you know they're a 1L.

27, any word on Jimmy Carter? Did something happen to him?

@47, I never lie about David Carradine.

I was a junior-associate at SNR back in the day, and Paul Glad once called me out of the blue and ripped me a new one about how I entered time on one of his matters. I was new and petrified and had no idea what he was talking about (we were even in different offices), and it took him a few minutes of being an asshole before he realized I was the wrong associate and had never worked on the matter. Even if I had been in the wrong, the dude was such a DICK. Sad for the lady, but I'd be lying if I didn't admit feeling a little schadenfreude for his misfortune. EAT A DICK, GLAD.

Without exception, all biglaw partners are horrible human beings. You cant become a partner otherwise.

After seeing the word "copious," I knew that Kash wrote this instead of Elie. Journalism majors love to use the word "copious" almost as much as their love for "plethora" and "delectable"

"Sorry, dude that people got injured."

Reminds me of how admitted murderers seeking parole tell their story. And then X happened, and then Mrs. __ died. They never say "Then I killed Mrs. X".
Same careful wording. Those Girls Scouts "got injured". Hi Lexus did it, not him.

By the way, he still looks like a drunk.

I feel bad for Mr. Glad. I could care less about the girl scouts, they lost my order for thin mints. Bitches.

His car handling skill sucks. He’s certainly no Mark McCormick from Hardcastle and McCormick, that’s for sure!

Not into this story, my first time ever posting an ATL comment saying that. Suicide has natural interest to everyone, and that story about the mom throwing her kids out of the car was funny, and even Judge Peck smacking his wife was oddly interesting, but this one is really sad, maybe because it invovles an 8 year old girl getting traumatized by seeing her mom horribly injured and then her mom's leg being amputated.

David Carradine died choking on a Samoa.

His auto insurer should use one of his anti-coverage arguments to justify refusing him a defense. 100 bucks the scout family's carrier is Glad's client and there's a conflict too.

Was he listening to Rush while on OxyContin? Rush is known to be a connoisseur of Oxy.

3500mgs and a Lexis, bitches!

61-

That is so far off base it is comical.

64-How do you know?

62 - Yes, but the Canadian rock band, who may or not be connoisseurs of pharmaceuticals.

"But I don't know why that would be of interest to Above The Law."

I agree. How exactly is this news? I swear this site is going down the tubes..

66 - touche'.

Retired partner here: Over the years, I tried around 150 jury trials to verdict. In possibly 6 to 8, the opposing client was either an attorney or a law firm. The trials were some of the few commerical trials I handled during my years in active practice. In each case, the jury absolutely slammed the crap out of the attorney/parties. In severeal cases, the jury was out less than 30 minutes, just to make sure the message was clear. This druggie/attorney is about to find out what it's like to have a verdict far, far in excess of the amount of his insurance coverage, unless he settled by paying a ton of money out of his own pocket to supplement the limits of his coverage. Sorry about the little girl and her mother, but they are going to be rich, rich, rich.

He's in insurance litigator. The irony.

Ex SNR lit associate here-Paul Glad is a total ass and nothing about this story surprised me.

...and the partner in NYC who left her kids in White Plains (admittedly the wrong thing to do) was mercilessly disgraced while posters are calling for this guy to get a break. Interesting.

This guy looks like Burl Ives with a really bad toupe

36=funny

I believe that new Lexuses (Lexi?) have a dashboard gearshifting system like our Prius and a push-button ignition, rather than the traditional put-your-keys-in-and-turn. This means that virtually no one who drives one of these cars ever bothers to put the car in park; you just push the ignition button and the engine goes off.

That means that it's no longer an automatic instinct to put the car in park.

That means if you don't push the off button (which is a slight, somewhat indistinct movement, especially when compared to turning a regular ignition and taking the keys out) you start to get out of the car while it's in drive. (Not that I've done this, but I've totally done this.) The car makes a sort of panicked beeping noise, which might cause a person to get back in the car and push a pedal, possibly the wrong pedal.

I was not on OxyContin when this happened to me; on the other hand, no Girl Scouts were harmed by my car.

He should just settle this quickly.

Here is the video showing the car backing up. You can't see him hit the woman but you can see the front of his car.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI

Settle, you stupid fuck!

45--No one wants your legal analysis on ATL.

77 - No! I fall for it every time, even when I KNOW that it's going to be rickrolling I just can't resist clicking the link!

when I worked in S.F., I saw Glad a lot even though I wasn't working for Sonnenschein. He used to talk really loud in the elevators, in what seemed to me to be an attempt to impress whoever was near him that he was A Very Important Person. as I recall he weighed close to three bills, too. not too many things sicken me than obese pigs on a food mission who forget all manners and decorum in the process. I wonder if the Oxycontin put his id in overdrive (no pun intended). what an a**hole.

This appears to have been an accident.

As a PI lawyer I can tell you: he must have VERY high limits, because that policy is GONE if it's a 500, or even a million. But a guy like this has excess and/or umbrella coverage.

If you are someone in his position, you would have written a letter long ago to your insurer, telling them you insist that they settle within your policy limits (so as not to expose you to excess). Then, if they don't, you can go after your insurer for bad faith, if their inaction exposed you to an excess judgment.

That almost surely happened. So what is going in, I'd surmise, is that the plaintiffs refused to settle for his primary limits, and insist on dipping into his excess or umbrella coverage.

83: An accident fueled by OxyContin, of course.

I worked with Paul for quite a while. He is a great man, and he does suffer from a disability. He has some debilitating problem with his legs (ironically) that is something similar to extreme arthritis. Hence, also, why he was on pain medication. It's a lifelong illness and it's not curable. It will only get worse, and on some days he has a lot of trouble walking, which is also why he was in the handicapped spot. Don't dis him when you have no idea what the man goes through everyday.

86 - sounds like a bunch of the associates who've worked with him disagree that he's a "great man". I bet the amputee, her injured daughter, and all the thousands of policyholders he's helped deny benefits to would also disagree.

Karma. Comes. Back.

P.S. Paul almost exclusively does regulatory work in insurance, not benefits denial. Look into your facts.

89, thanks for the lame spin, Mr. Glad. Now go update your bio on your website, as your representative matters are predominantly in the litigation context, and the only regulatory matters are dated 1972 and 1980.

So lemme see. A wealthy, powerful insurance litigator admittedly on OxyContin (a powerful sedating drug) rams his pricey Lexus into a troop of six-year-old Girl Scouts selling cookies, crushing them against a wall and horribly and permanently maiming a mom, but chooses to drag them to court instead of settling?

What is this, a John Grisham novel? Some sort of joke hypothetical? Whatever "strategy" is in play here, the possibilities all appear morally repugnant, and cast a pall on that entire office.

This is not just a Paul Glad issue, this is a Sonnenschein issue. For many years, Glad has been the highest-paid partner in the firm, as high as $3 million or more. With his volume of billings, he has had as many people working for him (and thus observing him) as anyone in the firm. At 6'6" and 325 pounds, an explosive temper, lots of the time a deathly palor to his complexion, a highly distracted, frenetic approach to trial preparation, everyone has known for years that he had to have a serious substance abuse problem (or problems), but he was bringing in the business, so Portnoy and company turned a blind eye. Instead, they should have forced him to go to rehab and, in the meantime, kept him from driving an automobile. One good look at the guy's face and you knew he had no business behind the wheel of a car. So that poor mother and daughter have not only Glad's very deep pocket to go after, they have Sonnenschein's even deeper pocket.

Damn. There's a video right after the incident and it shows the Lexus covered in Girl Scout cookies, and also shows Glad not looking to broken up over the incident. Here's the link and nope, it's not a rickroll (NTTAWWT): http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/video?id=6698925

I always knew Paul Glad would wind up in the tabloids, but I figured it would be because he has the worst case of foot-in-mouth disease you can imagine. Paul regularly refuses to promote women and minorities---and he tells them that is the reason. When they leave, he proceeds to talk about them behind their backs, attempting to ruin their reputation, and all in public.

And by the way, he is an experienced "litigator", but not an experienced "trial lawyer" because he convinces his clients to pay 10 times as much as they should in settlement costs just so he doesn't have to reveal the fact that he knows very little about going to trial, and even less about winning.

No wonder Sonnenschein is going under. They have left Paul Glad at the helm of the San Francisco office far too long.

92 is entirely correct. Paul Glad has had an obvious substance abuse problem for years. I was there for five years, and everyone knew it. The lawyer for the plaintiffs should find out the names of former partners, associates and staff for the last 15 years and depose them about Glad. The settlement value will skyrocket even above where it is. Glad has been over-billing and committing malpractice for years. Sonnenschein knew about it and did nothing because he brought in money. Some days, he could hardly walk he was so disoriented. I had no idea the guy was driving. Pray he goes to jail and has his license taken away.

Glad is a horrible human being. Karma's a b!tch. My heart goes out to all of the people he's injured during his despicable life.

paul glad is a bellicose, belligerent, pompous A-hole. i know several people who "left" his firm either willingly or unwillingly because of him. with any luck the D.A. will bring criminal charges against him and maybe he can spend some time in the big house that is if they have a cell big enough for him. he is several biscuits over 300 pounds. too bad for the woman and the kids. i have no sympathy for him.

its sad what happened to the mother and girl scouts. I worked at SNR and yes Paul is one big (beep). He would walk around the floor as if he were God!

A large number of prior commenters point out that everyone at Sonnenschein knew he had a major substance abuse problem, a major temper tantrum problem, a major sadistic streak that caused him to lash out uncontrollably, just like he did to the poor girl scouts and the now-crippled mother. But partners in other offices, including managing partners of key offices also had debilitating "mental" problems. But for them, there was swift intervention. Jim Heeter, head of the Kansas City office (a local political figure), got put on a long, involuntary leave, with firm management sending around a memo to all partners saying he was suffering from "fatigue" or "nervous exhaustion" or "stress disorder," or some other catch-phrase to disguise what he was really suffering from. And off he went. When he came back, management continued to keep a close watch on him, eased him out of power, made him harmless. So what was the difference between Glad and Heeter? Glad had huge client billings, Heeter was a small town, small time politico. Glad is permitted to run around like a wild man; Heeter they never take their eyes off. So it's not that Sonnenschein management doesn't know how to manage. No, it's that Glad was too financially important to manage. They figured someday he would run his Lexus off a bridge, or into a telephone pole; they would be rid of him, but still have his billings. They didn't figure he'd run into a bunch of girl scouts instead. Now they are going to get socked by a jury for grossly reckless failure to properly supervise a drug-addled psychopath.

I was a partner at SNR and Paul Glad was one of the meanest and most difficult people I have ever known. He was sadistic and delighted in causing harm to people. He would drop comments in casual conversation belittling people based upon their race or sex. While I am saddened by the accident and the resulting injury to the mother and young girl scout, it seems to be a case of ultimate hubris. Paul thought that the ordinary laws and rules did not apply to him. He should be charged for driving under the influence and causing serious bodily injury and should be disbarred upon conviction. He is despicable and evil.

I saw the Lexus pull out of Bromfield the street the SOB lives on, he can still drive it after maming a woman and child. He also filed papers that states he is 100% not to blame for what happened. Was the person who wrote that response on Oxycontin too! I hope it goes to trial and the jury rips Glad to shreds. Ahole. Take his money, his house and his drugs.....

The rates of alcoholism and drug abuse among members of the legal profession is so unbelievably skyhigh as to be totally off the charts.

And still furthermore, I doubt there is any other major city in the entire country that has rates of alcoholism and drug abuse among its lawyers that could even begin to touch the rates of such among San Francisco's lawyers.

No criminal charges

The obvious model for Denny Crane, Denny Crane, Denny Crane...

This website fucking disgusts me. This was a complete accident and Paul Glad loves girlscouts which was why he was there buying cookies from them in the first place. You guys are just getting a huge kick out of picking on him just because he is successful. Yes, it was a tragic thing that took place but it was a mistake, and he felt horrible about it. I know him. He is NOT a drug addict. He is not evil. He did not intend to harm anybody. A family friend of his actually told me that he was actually paying attention to the girl scout while waving goodbye to her and was unaware that the car was in drive. He was not getting out of the car while it was moving, what the fuck? You guys are taking this way way out of line, and completely twisting the story.
