[ . . . ]
A personal injury lawyer sets up a mobile office outside the ER, infuriating Lewis as he tries to turn dissatisfied patients into clients.

It turns out that the post on the Mobile Lawyer who showed up at our hospital and ER last spring caught some notice in the blogosphere. Overlawyered picked up the post and I had thousands of hits in a few days. A colleague referred another contact and somehow the story reached the writing staff at the ER production company to appear in the fictionalized version on tomorrow's show. Imagine that.
You should sue ER now! (just kidding). Congrats on the contribution to public culture. It would be nice, however, if they mentioned their inspiration for the story.
ReplyDeleteThat kind of lawyer sickens me. And by "me" I hope I mean a majority of Americans.
