Thank you super helpful. Found that a lot of therapists have been scooped up by these big companies that have ton of locations throughout the US. Trying to stay away from those especially since you are working with someone on trying to rewire your brain

National GOP inherited Dad’s working-order car 20 years ago and have been beating it to shit ever since. Now it’s leaking oil and smoking like a m’fkr, and only moving at all because they’ve got their sketchy friends pushing it from behind. Any input from reputable mechanics results in them being barred from the club for life. Beyond hope.

The bridges I know of or have worked with with have been under Coast Guard federal regulations like the Chelsea Creek Bridge and the Amtrak Portal Bridge but I'm no expert and I know the Army Corp is involved in it as well, don't personally know the specifics as to who says what, just that there are many lengthy documents on ecfr.gov about protecting drawbridges at all costs

Basically they have no idea what they owe and are preemptively saying they pay won't certain debts.

Once you get to that point, the only people that work with you are connected grifters who demand cash up front. Essentially, what Trump's campaign devolved into post election.

Attorneys can certainly advertise tastefully but these giant mills seem to just try and smother out everyone else. I grew up watching those commercials! When my friend was in law school he told me about their racket, take the case and vend it out to another firm to do the work, take a cut as a finders fee. I have a hunch he rarely took cases unless there was serious meat on the bone.

Yes, that was their argument. In full disclosure, I am an attorney so I have a bias in this. I am not an ambulance chaser like Morgan and Morgan. I think that there is a fine line in advertising where you want people to have access to the justice system and you have to get the word out to do that then you have this crap which is just sad. In all likelihood, M&M never touches the case and just acts as a referral service and gets a fee. This is what Jim Sokolove did back in the day, remember those commercials?
