Advising
clients to accept settlements or plea
agreements are frequent parts of legal
practice. However, some clients regret their
decision, blame their attorneys, then claim they were
misled. Although some situations may
be a variant of "buyer's remorse," in others attorneys may
have engaged in excessive or inappropriate
manipulation. A knowledgable expert in undue
influence and manipulation tactics can often clarify the matter.
