I'd be very upset if my Big4 lawyer billed me for time spent on this "detail"
If you can’t even get something so basic as opposing counsel’s name right, you don’t exactly engender much confidence in negotiating the minutiae of a contract. That’s the difference between a Chinatown lawyer and one in a Big 4/international firm - we make sure things are right whether it’s billable or not.
