How do you explain to a lawyer accusing you of double-dipping for charging for additional copies of transcript already prepared?

A friend of mine sold transcripts of a case to all the parties involved in the case.



Then one lawyer came back and said I need another 2 copies, one of which has to be sealed for presentation to the court.



The friend set a very fair price for the additional transcripts, and the lawyer has accused my friend of double-dipping and charging twice for the transcript.



Has anyone got any good standard responses to the lawyer to explain that my friend is not… Continue

Useful information for those assessing NCRA's business acumen, if any

Conservatively NCRA has cumulatively lost over $2,000,000 during the last 16 years.



During those 16 years JCR Court Reporter Listing advertisers have cancelled their ads by the dozens because of their great dissatisfaction with with the policy of the NCRA board of directors and NCRA staff in listing the Court Reporter Listings in NO order.



NOTE: The ads are listed by seniority which is equivalent of listing the ads in NO order.



As of the May issue of JCR 94 ads… Continue

Bill,
First things first, I always do a "WhoIS" search:
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=courtreporting.biz
That will give you a lot of info on the domain owner. Then a quick google search for Richard Bloxam of Pocatello brought up many, many domains that he owns, including this informative site: http://whois.domaintools.com/bender.biz
Once you scroll down, you see this:
DomainTools Exclusive
Registrant Search: "Richard Bloxham" owns about 3,022 other domains.

You quickly discover that he makes a decent living off of pay per click advertisement, using common untapped dictionary terms as domain names to drive traffic to his sites.
Hope that helps a little.
Eric
