In this case, the fictitious law firm should be renamed in honor of Florida attorney, James Harvey Tipler. The 58 year old Florida lawyer has been disbarred for, among other crimes, exchanging legal services for sex with his 18 year old client. Tipler (there’s a joke in there somewhere) devised a creative and creepy fee schedule which included a $200 discount if his client had sex with him, and a $400 discount if she brought along a second female participant.
In addition to the sex, Tipler is accused of altering evidence, causing a witness to unknowingly give false testimony and charging clients excessive fees. We never thought we’d have to create a rule for this one, but here goes. This one actually calls for part A & B. Really bad boss rule #83A – If you’re an attorney, don’t pimp your clients for sexual favors. Really bad boss rule #83B - If you’re an attorney and you pimp your clients for sexual favors, don’t become their John.
