Re:[IAC#RG]

Mr Rodrigues
 This kind of fight is best done alone as no one can be trusted and noone will come forward to help. This is the ground reality of total exasperation in our country. Cuts are a way of life because nothing can be easily proved and every evidence will be disputed and the matter will take 10 yrs to decide

CUTS - COMMISSIONS AND THE LEGAL PROFESSION


By Aires Rodrigues


The famed Swedish Chemist and Innovator Alfred Nobel had said "Lawyers have to make a living, and can only do so by inducing people to believe that a straight line is crooked".


If you think kick-backs and commissions are a way of life for only politicians and bureaucrats, hold your breath…..

 

Last week a lawyer referred to me one of his clients. The following day I got a call from that otherwise very religious minded lawyer stating that while billing that client I should charge 30% extra which would be that lawyer's cut. He said that  it was now a normal practice.

 

I immediately returned the client and the file back to the sender!

 

I was tempted to report this unethical and obnoxious behaviour to the Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa. But then I realized that I need to have at least a handful of friends so that someone is around to carry my mortal remains on that Final Voyage!
