What do you guys think he's entitled to:

Hundreds of thousands of dollars because he COULD have been more crooked.

Let me get this straight...

Post by Not Sir Phobos »

This guy held onto millions of dollars worth of stolen paintings. Knew full well the ENTIRE time that they were stolen, in fact they were in his posession BECAUSE they were stolen, and now he wants a 10% finders fee?

I don't get it :?

Keep in mind that the original owner has spent millions of dollars the last 28 years trying to find these paintings.

Personally I don't find it surprising that this guy's a lawyer :roll:

I think this story is a fake. If this guy was a real lawyer, he'd insist on at
least a third (plus expenses).

Tell me a story.

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

My sister got hit by someone else a few years back. She was ok (just a lil
beaten up) but her car was totaled. The other person's insurance company
refused to settle for what the car was worth, so she ended up getting a
lawyer. The lawyer sent one notarized letter and they ended up settling.
For that amount of work, they took 1/3 of the money plus billed her $50 for
the notarized letter. I think she ended up getting less than if she'd just took
the initial offer before the lawyer got involved.

I thought you had at least SOME standards, though.

First, I'd have to remove all the Dilandau cels from the line of fire--I mean, I can't let bishies (even insane ones) suffer, now can I? :P
