Anecdote of the Week

YOU CAN CALL ME JOHNSON

Obviously, in doing divorce work, both of the litigants have the same last name (in about 95% of our cases). However, it’s far less customary for us to have a case where the attorneys also have the same last name. And, to take that one step further, imagine the confusion when we have a case where not only do the husband and wife of course have the same last name, and the attorneys have the same last name, but it’s all the same last name. Further, the husband was represented by a male; the wife by a female. Even the Mr. or Ms. designation didn’t alleviate the confusion.
