When the Truth Emerges: 36 Lawyers Shocked as Their Clients Unveil Jaw-Dropping Confessions
A person involved in a motor cycle accident, who sustained legitimate but not serious injuries, cctv showed the incident, they were very much not at fault.
They decided this was their big payday, claimed they could barely walk, had ptsd, serious back trouble, would never work again, the whole 9 yards.
They neglected to tell their lawyer they had been (i) working a manual labour job (ii) riding motorcycles again (iii) did a bungee jump.
All of which we caught on video/they documented via social media.
They did not get the multi million pound settlement payment they expected and were pursued for fraud. It was a fun phone call after we sent the tape full of evidence.
I had a client on a family matter, we were in court and I was going on about how being a father was the most important thing in the world to him and his ex pipes up and says ‘well, he never sees his other children!’
I’m sorry, other children?
That being said, many clients leave out embarrassing things until they get called out on them. Please tell your lawyers all the facts. We’ve literally heard everything and really don’t care. Just let me prepare to explain that your weekend habits of c*****e and s*x dungeons doesn’t effect your ability to parent.
Spent several hours zealously arguing that my client was severely disabled and couldn’t work due to a back injury. It was so bad that the poor dude couldn’t even sit in a chair throughout the entire proceedings. Rest my case. Opposing counsel calls in a DEC representative who proceeds to produce record after record of my client’s deer hunting activities. He sat in a tree, in freezing weather, for many hours, shot and k****d multiple deer, and transported their carcasses out of the woods all on his own. SMH.
When a client hides a crucial piece of negative information, they’re essentially handing a loaded weapon to the opposition. But this cone of silence isn’t a magical get-out-of-jail-free card for all future activities. The one major exception to attorney-client privilege is if a client is seeking advice on how to commit a future crime or fraud. You can’t use your lawyer as a co-conspirator to plan your next brilliant heist.
The hilarious and horrifying irony of the stories in this online thread is that most of these clients had full, iron-clad protection to tell the truth… and they chose to sabotage themselves for no reason at all.
Had a client charged with being a Convicted Felon in Possession of a handgun. She had been in a car that had gotten into a shootout on the interstate (in the middle of the night in a rural area at least). She was the passenger and her car pulled into the state trooper post in the county I practiced in. Her car was shot to s**t so it was obvious something happend, but there was a gun in the car, she had a 30 year old felony theft conviction, so she was charged. She had some crazy story for what happened but it was obvious that it was a d**g deal gone wrong, however that didn’t matter for her charge really.
The discovery was really light, the driver of her car wasn’t a Convicted felon, and it didn’t appear the state police had investigated the fact there was another car obviously shooting at my client even though the genesis of the shootout was just up the road in that same post’s jurisdiction. Short of it was she had some legitimate defenses.
I had met with her multiple times, discussed her case in depth, and was preparing for trial. About two weeks from trial in passing she mentioned that a state trooper had interviewed her at the state police post, which was annoying because at this point the case was 7 or 8 months old. So I look through the discovery again, don’t see anything, but file a motion asking for any recordings of interviews. Sure enough the prosecutor was sitting on it, which is shady as [darn], unethical, and common practice for that prosecutor office. I get the interview and all of four minutes in she tells the cop not only did she know the gun was in the car, but that she had been the one shooting. That pretty much k****d every defense I had.
We had a come to Jesus talk the next day and she took her offer which was the minimum of five years to serve.
My client was badly hurt in a car accident and promised me he was never hurt in one before.
He was actually “hurt” in 44 prior accidents, all of which he filed claims for, which is how I found out when the mediator showed me the defense’s ISO report. The f****n look on my clients face lmao.
