Legal Consultation Service
A dog ran into a butcher shop and grabbed a roast off the counter.
Fortunately, the butcher recognized the dog as belonging to a neighbour of his.
The neighbour happened to be a lawyer.
Incensed at the theft, the butcher called up his neighbour and said:
Hey, if your dog stole a roast from my butcher shop, would you be liable for the cost of the meat?”
The lawyer replied: Of course, how much was the roast?
“$7.98.”
A few days later the butcher received a check in the mail for $7.98.
Attached to it was an invoice that read: Legal Consultation Service: $150.
