DC.

Surprises me. I don't see anything like that in the bills I review, but on most of these cases, if the Billing Attorney was a crook I wouldn't be able to figure it out unless it was really egregious like in that case. Believe it or not, I don't do that on the few files where I'm the biling attorney.

I am worried now about a paralegal I like and who seems to do a good job, but whose time charges last month just don't make sense to me (on both cases she's working on with me). if the cases were bigger, those charges would have just been lost in the wash.

I'll end up talking to her to see what she says, and then trying to figure out how much to cut the bill. Odds are I'll be more reluctant to use her next time ("Dance of the Lemons").
