Is it a good idea to strike up a personal relationship with your lawyer?

Question

I finally met with the ADA (Assistant District Attorney) tonight regarding a case that I've been subpoenaed to testify in next Tuesday. We totally hit it off and even went out for a drink. Nothing more flirting and a hug happened, but I really like this guy! And it's obvious he really likes me because he's the one who asked for the hug. ?????

Answer 1

he's not your lawyer and once the case is over then it's alright to date him.

Answer 2

Are both of you single?

Answer 3

First you need to know who is and who is not YOUR attorney.

This ADA...

...he is NOT your attorney.

So go for it.

Answer 4

If he is hot and single... h**l ya!

Answer 5

Yeah, for sure i think you should pursue him. Its more important to find love, than to have a good lawyer.

But if you do break up, I strongly suggest that you find yourself a new Lawyer ;)

Answer 6

Tamiri, this guy is NOT your lawyer. He is the state's or county's. I suggest that you wait until this case is over and then give him a call.

This will avoid any impropriety with the case.

Regards,

Dan

Answer 7

after the case.

Answer 8

Nothing wrong with being in contempt of court when it comes to hot and fantastic "s*x"...see I said s*x nicely!!

Answer 9

tricky, there may be some ethical restrictions on his part.
