Legal productivity is being slammed by a toxic work culture according to a recent survey from across the pond. This may come as no surprise to legal workers here in the United States, as the relentless pressure of law practice often creates a toxic culture in law departments. In many cases, this comes from the management level with toxic bosses and “pie-duckers” rampant in some companies. What can be done? Ref0rm is needed, but the legal profession is not known for embracing change, and when it does, it often comes glacially rather than when needed to ameliorate the real problems at hand.

R.v. SJ Violation of Minister weight Order
SJ drove through two separate 8-ton road signs restriction. SJ was therefore stopped by a police officer who caught the violation on video. The Police officer requested that the commercial vehicle proceed to an inspection and was weighed on a scale. The total fine due to the excess weight resulted in a penalty fine of $7,637.00. I was able to resolve and reduce the fine from $7,637 to $1,400.
