DirtyLAWndry reader, “Tonya”, wants to share what her boss has been up to lately.

“I’m emailing you because my boss is the worst attorney ever. Before I let you know why, I just want you to know that I don’t hold any grudges against lawyers or anything like that. I’m a paralegal and I’ve worked for the same firm for about seventeen years now. My boss has done tons of grimy things during that time. But, now, he’s suing his mother for defamation and wants the firm to represent him in the suit. We had a meeting about it and we thought he was just kidding. But, he’s really serious about this. His mother is probably in her late 80s maybe early 90s. Apparently, she hasn’t been feeling well lately. She lives by herself so her friends and family visit her more often than usual now. Well, she started telling stories of the things my boss used to do when he was younger (basically, what every mom does - bedwetting stories, tantrum recalls, etc) and this is what prompted my boss to sue her for defamation. It’s just ridiculous. I’m secretly praying that he gets disbarred for this one.”
