It's hard enough to trust lawyers without them giving you obvious reasons to not trust them.

Case in point: Ohio lawyer Kristin Ann Stahlbush.

There's a blind trust when working with a lawyer. You trust that the hours and minutes they're billing you for are in fact correct and accurate and that they're not piling on imaginary billing time for a bigger paycheck.

It's also hard to catch them if they're doing that.

One obvious warning sign, however, would be if they bill you for more than 24 hours of work in a single day.

That's a big red flag, one that led the Ohio Bar Association to investigate and suspend Kristin Ann Stahlbush. Lawyers may be able to manipulate your words and the law, but, as far as we know, they can not yet manipulate time.
