I just saw a thumbtack commercial and was reminded of when I first moved down here and used the app to get many of my cases. It's the same app you use if you want to hire a plumber or lawn guy.

This is when I was doing flat fee divorces, too. I took one for $2,500 and I'm *still* working on it. I'm not a scumbag and won't withdraw, but I've probably spent close to 300 hours working on this case.

Sure there is. Someone paid me a flat fee to do a job. I'm not going to pull some bullshit reason out of my ass for why I can't do that job. It sucks and it's a lot more complicated than I initially thought (and was initially led to believe), but my word's all I've got. Luckily, it seems like we'll be able to resolve this within the next couple months.

Whatever you say bro, nobody is going to fault you for withdrawing or at least renegotiating the terms of the payment and it's not unethical to do so

Yeah, but I wouldn't be able to wagecuck unless I absolutely had to. My problem is that I'm too outspoken and confrontational and would not make it through the interview at some shitlib-infested tech company before telling them exactly how I feel about gender studies, the patriarchy, and LGBTQ shit.

I'm actively applying it to the legal profession, which I think will prove lucrative in the long run. We'll see.

LAw isn't beneath anyone.

It may be "Above" some, but that's a different story.

You've done 300 hours of work for a flat rate of 2,500 and don't even have the balls to renegotiate the rate?

I'm glad you're not working on ARE trade deals.

It's not about having the balls to renegotiate. I've withdrawn on plenty of cases for legitimate reasons. The problem here is that I fucked up by not doing a thorough enough initial interview and by charging a flat fee for a divorce. That's not the client's fault; it's my fault.
