When I bought a new car, it was to enjoy a maintenance-free, dependable vehicle and pocket the fuel-savings.
I made a BIG MISTAKE!
It was never my intent to witness the insanity of Big Corporations, Dilly Dally Delay & Stall law firms and their willingness to keep shoveling $$$ to defend nothing.
The Albany Law Firm of Keith Rose represents Toyota U.S.A. and each event requires 4 hours of travel from Albany and 4 hours of travel to return, plus time for the event.
Get out your calculators and do the complex math.
8 hours of BMW travel time
+ 2 hours in court
__________
10 Hours
How much would you guess Attorney Rose is paid to drive his BMW to and fro?
Do you think it's $500 per hour?
If Attorney Rose charges $500 per hour, your calculator should report $5,000 for the event.
MapQuest reveals it's ~ 240 miles, travel time almost 5 hours.
He wouldn't exceed the speed limit, would he?
Do you suppose he charges mileage?
In the month of May some time, Attorney Rose plans to take my deposition, although Attorney Rose has ignored the dates that were offered to him.
You don't suppose he ignored those dates to seek another delay, do you, as he did requesting interrogatories?
Was it 6 months he successfully delayed? And then had to postpone the next court date by 4 months......
Attorney Rose anticipates the inquisition....I mean deposition will require half a day.
Since I drove the vehicle less than 1 month before being terrorized by its unpredictable behavior, he must be planning to ask me about my life or pad the bill....No! He wouldn't do that!
It escalates!
Route 44 Toyota violated FCRA [Fair Credit Reporting Act] when they requested credit reports 3 TIMES.
Attorney Rose 'assented' [agreed to] the motion to add that issue to the lawsuit.
Maybe taking a look at his billable hours, he has re-considered and plans to oppose, requiring a court appearance.
Attorney Rose will travel from Albany, NY in his BMW to address the court and make the BMW return trip.
The legal fees have FAR exceeded the value of the lawsuit and the car with unpredictable behavior.
How funny is this caption?
Next time someone comments about 'excessive legal fees,' remember Toyota.
