:05:02
They call us ambulance chasers,
bottom feeders,

:05:05
vultures preying on
the misfortunes of others.

:05:08
If that's true, why do I lie awake
worrying about my clients?

:05:12
Why is their pain my pain?
:05:15
I wish I didn't empathise.
It'd be a lot easier.

:05:40
We're speaking to Jan Schlichtmann,
personal injury attorney

:05:43
and according to Boston magazine -
have you seen this? -

:05:46
one of Boston's
ten most eligible bachelors.

:06:02
Let's go back to the phones. Woburn,
you're on the air.

:06:07
Mr Schlichtmann,
it's Anne Anderson.

:06:09
- Hello.
- How are you?

:06:11
Very well. You? Sounds pretty.
:06:14
How come you never call me?
:06:16
- If I had your number, I would.
- You have it.

:06:20
- I do?
- You have no idea who I am?

:06:23
- Is this Ricky?
- No.

:06:26
You see, my son died of leukaemia
two years ago.

:06:29
- Your firm is handling the case.
- We are?

:06:32
The reason I'm calling you here
:06:35
is because my calls to your offices
have gone unreturned for weeks.

:06:40
- Sorry, your name was?
- Anne.

:06:42
- Anne...
- Anderson.

:06:44
I'm writing that down.
I'm gonna take care of this.

:06:51
Why don't you come up to Woburn
:06:53
and actually meet a few of those
people whose pain is your pain?
