Look another slave ship

The offshore legal services industry is poised for enormous growth. Exponential projections of industry estimates compete for hyperbole with the intensity perhaps not dissimilar to that of a fortune tellers gaze into a crystal ball. Even so, it is accurate to say that credible players in this industry have collectively just scratched the surface of the immense potential that lies ahead.

96 - You forgot about the exception. You must be in a TTT school. Have you considered becoming a dabbawala.

90% of litigation cost is discovery and that work will belong to India.

Growing outsourcing / off shoring opportunities in the fields of patents and IP from US, Europe and Japan (due to abundant talent and state-of-the-art infrastructure. Operational excellence that has delivered cost and quality leadership in offshore services centres).

20 - Who cares about your miserable life, except any family and friends that have to listen to it non-stop?

I realize now that it won't change even if you changed firms.

Put the dildo down and focus on why men hate you/you hate men.

Typical Lawyer-in-the-dell

Nick, tell me why do you need them to come to Iowa when they can write your stuff from anywhere? You would probably get a higher quality work product, if they didn't have to be in Iowa...think about it.

Nick, I forgot to ask why would I need to be licensed in another jurisdiction to write briefs for the attorney of record in that case?

Nick,

I searched the Supreme Court of Iowa website looking for your certificate of good standing and was not successful. Are you licensed in Iowa?

Nick,

I am confused. You list your address on calbar as:

Law Office of Nicholas C Rowley
115 Winnebago St
Decorah, IA 52101

If you are not licensed in Iowa, how do you hold yourself out as a law office in Iowa?

90 - I guess your definition of "honesty" is different than the rest.

93 - He has a law degree not a doctorate in psych. It is not like he is having a professional doing any analysis on potential candidates. So take what he says at face value. FYI - all the info obtained is publicly accessible but it looks like you don't care about doing any research so don't bother applying.

100- Is Mystal holding himself as having a law office in NY? No need to check I will take your word for it.

103. Right, leaving you unencumbered to post your thoughts on random websites. Take it at face value.

104. Worked as what is the question.

I don't see how outsourcing to India can be considered free trade. India has only approved US/UK firms to relocate their legal sweat shops to their shores and retain ownership without allowing these firms access to their domestic legal business.

51. I agree.

“The Indian legal market is important, not so much for today, but for the future,” said David Jacobs, the head of Chicago-based Baker & McKenzie LLP’s India practice. Foreign acquisitions by Indian companies more than tripled to $13.9 billion in 2008 from $4.5 billion in 2005, and India “will be restored as one of the dominant global economies in our lifetimes,” he said

Still cheaper to pay in rupees than dollars
