As we did last time, please send over the settlement papers asap as well as assure me that the money will be wired to our trust account fairly quickly (I believe we have received within 7 days of settlement papers being signed in the past). If you are out of the office and thus would prefer my office to prepare the papers and send them to you, then we will do that consistent with those prepared in previous cases. » Brad Edwards >> Civil Justice Attorney >> Farmer, Jaffe, Weissing, » Edwards, Fistos & Lehrman, P.L. >> 425 North Andrews Avenue, Suite 2 >> Fort Lauderdale Florida 33301 » Telephone: >> Facsimile: 954-524-2822 » Toll-free: » www.pathtojustice.com >> >> Become our fan on Facebook >> DOPlease consider the environment before printing this e-mail. >> IRS Circular 230 Disclosure: Please note that the views expressed herein or in any attachments hereto are not intended to constitute a "reliance opinion" under applicable Treasury Regulations, and accordingly are not intended or written to be used, and may not be used or relied upon, for the purpose of (i) avoiding tax-related penalties that may be imposed by the Internal Revenue Service, or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any tax-related matters addressed herein. >> NOTICE: THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS TRANSMISSION IS ATTORNEY PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL.

Just me and your client in the room, but in case any attorney client type issues arise I would like for Jack to be nearby without him needing to block off his schedule. >>> >>> Talk to your client and get back to me.
