21st century Lawyer

LAWYER: Well I think that you have got legitimate grounds for taking this to court. Um, you were at the scene of the train crash, about two minutes after it happened? MAN: Mm. LAWYER: And you’re very deeply upset by what you saw. So, we can seek compensation from any of the crash participants, who behaved in such a way as to cause that upset. MAN: Mm-hm. LAWYER: Did you see any of them making any effort to hide their wounds? MAN: No. LAWYER: Right. One man actually died in front of you, in a disgustingly uninhibited way. So you can sue his estate for that. MAN: Right. LAWYER: And, to compound the evil, two of the victims then re-horrified you by appearing on television that evening. MAN: Yes, I suppose they did, yeah. LAWYER: Well, yes, and I think that was very inconsiderate. So, why don’t we start work on this for you tomorrow morning? MAN: Okay, right, uh, thanks very much. LAWYER: Not at all.
