"L'Etat c'est moi!"

Dear CyberSmokeBlog:

http://www.lawyersweekly.ca/index.php?section=article&volume=34&number=32&article=2
(Duo only get token costs for Nadon matter)

Well if nothing else at least this tells us what Galati charges per hour. To the best of my recollection the highest rate I was ever quoted when I was calling Vancouver lawyers was less than $500/hr, but that was some years ago.

Dear cb...

Thank you for contacting CyberSmokeBlog. Yes, we saw The Lawyers Weekly article to which you refer, Hopefully, the $800 per hour fee he charged the government for successfully challenging the Supreme Court of Canada appointment of Marc Nadon was his special rate he levies against the Harper government for being such judicial jerks. If he uses the same rate for his other clients than isn't he guilty of the same crime he chastised the Federal Court of Canada Judge who offered up the measly $5,000 while Mr. Nadon sat on his ass at his cottage earning a little more than $140,000 in salary for doing nothing while the case was being litigated?

"This judgment is just reflective of a privileged world of Versailles under Louis XIV."

How many among you can afford an $800 an hour lawyer?

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk
