Lawyer Excuses, 13 Things Your Divorce Lawyer will Tell You: By J. Michael Kelly, Esq.

1. That's the way that I have always done it.

2. I didn't know that you were in a hurry for that letter.

3. That's not part of the divorce that I'm working on.

4. My superior did not tell me to go ahead with that part of the litigation.

5. You never gave me those parts of the document ever.

6. How did I know your divorce was different from the other ones.

7. That is the other lawyer's job, not mine.

8. Wait until the head lawyer comes back from court and ask him.

9. We don't make many mistakes at this firm.

10. I didn't think that fact was very important, did you?

11. I'm so overloaded I just can't get around to it now.

12. I thought I told you that last month.

13. I wasn't hired to do that at all.
