Lawyers are so bad at business, I will save the legal profession for you. All you do is securitize your billable hours, divide them into various groups, depending on risk in receivables, have credit agencies rate them and selling them to various banks and financial institutions. Also hire some insurance companies to insure these securities. what you have created is a veritable gold mine. Genius !

Lawyers are so bad at business. Why are you laying people off? I was speaking to Geithner the other day and he mentioned a program by a program in tandem with the federal reserve where you can sell law firm debt and get cash in return, you can even tell them the value for the debt, if its not liquid. this could float you for several years until you balance your books. then you can raise salaries for first years to get the best of the best and give bonuses for your partners. man you guys are so slow.
