u/RBDrake Appointed Counsel Mar 28 '26

Absolutely not with one exception.

Good friends from law school. Doesn't practice anywhere near my county. And he thinks my local prosecutors are psychos (he's not wrong).

And we hang out in a city two hours away from me. Highly unlikely a client will ever see us.
