From: Tuesda , S !ember 25, 2007 8:37 PM Jeer: era orneys Iii w_ These four people were recommended. I have not contacted them to find out what their rates are. All arc very active in the plaintiffs' bar in the West Palm area. -would be my first choice of these four but I think he is conflicted out because one of his partners is married to an AUSA here. is probably my second choice. • Talk to about this group. They are all very good personal injury lawyers, but I have concerns about whether there would be an inherent tension because they may feel that THEY might make more money (and get a lot more press coverage) if they proceed outside the terms of the plea agreement. (Sorry — I just have a bias against plaintiffs' attorneys.) One nice thing about his that he is in Miami where there has been almost no coverage of this case. so you know, I have never met M, but a good friend in our appellate section and one of the district judge!' • in Miami are good friends with him and recommended him. Can you let me know tomorrow? I am going to be out for a while starting on Friday, and I would like to get this underway before I leave. Thank you. Assistant U.S. Attorney 500 S.
