      - We're on Ohio... -- Jeri, 10:05:18 04/21/03 Mon [1]

  - That's what confused me, Our attorney advertises that he has payment plans available, yet when we tell him we can't pay, he never offers them... Maybe we need to ask specifically? I think he would rather have our money then lose us altogether? (NT) -- Jeri, 10:41:37 04/21/03 Mon [1]
    - Definitely talk to him. Why dont you present a payment plan so that he knows that you are committed and serious about it. (NT) -- Leah, 10:57:14 04/21/03 Mon [1]
  - Don't they have to tell the other attorney they aren't represented? (m) -- Erin, 10:41:37 04/21/03 Mon [1]
    - I was not specific enough (m) -- Leah, 10:50:57 04/21/03 Mon [1]
