Re: OT: Fire in the office
You sure it wasnt a disgruntled employee whom was upset over the continued "borrowing" of his red swingline stapler?
(sorry, could not resist. apologies to those who miss the reference)

Sounds like quite a cool little onjet d'art. You should sell it on ebay

You'd be amazed at some of the crap that gets sold on ebay, you should do it... |

Re: OT: Fire in the office
The police is already investigating... looks like the guy that torched the office left a glass vial (with some gasoline inside) near the scene of the crime, with fingerprints all over it...
So, with some hope, is only a qustion of time until we identify who dit it...
But the person that did it was probably only under orders of another person...
We have some suspects, 2 persons that we won big lawsuits against and a lawyer that we denouced for malpractice and unethical behavior with his own clients...

Re: OT: Fire in the office
Man, I thought this sort of stuff only happened in John Grisham novels. Who knew being a lawyer would be so dangerous?

Re: OT: Fire in the office
What sort of lawyer are you, Makinus? Criminal (angry convicted criminals), tax (angry tax cheaters), divorce (angry husbands/wives)...? Just curious. I don't know the proper names for the lawyers of different things, but I think you understand what I mean 
btw. I'm happy you survived. Cheers!

Re: OT: Fire in the office
I mainly work with civil rights and tax defense, but in our office we have lawyers of every area except criminal, and we have a huge number of cases so it´s kind of hard to know who would want to attack us (there are too many suspects).
But, like i said earlier, we narrowed the case to 3 suspects, but we could be wrong, the police will probably discover more...
One of the suspects is really high in our list because Last week he threatened our client trying to make him desist from his lawsuit...
