While standing at a bus stop, Paralegal Frank overhears a woman telling her friend that she has to take the bus now because she had an accident with her car and the insurance company is dragging its feet. She remarks that it has been several months and she still has not gotten any money so she can replace or repair her car. Frank says: "Excuse me. I couldn't help over hearing your conversation. You probably need a lawyer to help you. Here's my business card. Call the main number and you'll be referred to a lawyer who can help you." The woman thanks him politely. Frank
