[WSBAPT] need a smile

[Diane J. Kiepe]

Oh yeah……

Thanks to all who reached out – turns out my letter (with typos) had it’s effect and the financial institution who froze the account of an individual called my client today!

My regular one is “here is the promised letter/deed/POA/etc. attached” and then - - - not attached.

We all make mistakes, the goal is to have processes so that the ones that might cause actual harm get caught.

I haven’t sent out anything with an error for a loooooong time.  Since, at least, yesterday.  I feel like I should have a sign similar to the signs in factories saying “0” days since the last accident.  I would have “0” Hours Since the Last Embarrassing glaring Mistake.

Hello to all the mighty legal warriors out there.

I am having one of those, should I really stay in practice months.  2023 has been a rough year in the office due to unexpected illnesses, family deaths, loss of my assistant who kept me straight, and forgetting how long things actually take versus how long I think they should take.  Some days I wonder.  Today was the icing on the cake – I sent out a letter via fax and sent out the incorrect, not corrected version.  My client is understandably upset.  I’ve corrected the error of my way and will send out a second one but after 18 years, how have I not learned to double check my attachments………heavy sigh.  Thank you in advance as I suspect one or two of you out there can relate.

Hanging on by a thread, but hanging on 😉
