When I lived in L.A. we did work with a lawfirm with some 600
attorneys. In my opinion David Boies is one of the slimiest
attorneys I've ever run into. As someone who used to have to
evaluate peoples characters for a living I think say he's one of
the lowest character people, who's also educated, I've seen.

Nothing he would ever say or do would surprise me. Interesting his
lawfirm is part of the suing...
