I work as a Legal Assistant, and I got an e-mail today that essentially said the following:
A fellow legal assistant went to serve documents on an opposing client. That's normal, we all do it as long as our client tells us the other person is not violent or volatile. She got the description of the person from her client, and went to serve him. The guy comes storming out of his house, screaming at her to get off his property. So she says, are you John Doe? YES NOW GET OFF MY PROPERTY. She went to give him the papers, and he started throwing punches, and someone from the house SHOT at her. SHOT AT HER.
She wasn't harmed, but they wanted to warn all us legal assistants to be very aware of our surroundings. We talked to our boss about it and he's decided that we will not be serving anymore and that a Sheriff will be doing it from now on.
So that was the drama in my life today.
