It is implausible that pchaos is a lawyer and he should stop claiming to be one

From the other thread:

Yeah, that was a lame-ass excuse by pchaos when he said that it’s hard to stay current with the law because the law in question hasn’t changed in 118 years! He should have admitted defeat after you told him that California hasn’t recognized common law marriages since the nineteenth century rather than coming up with excuses.

:smiley:

Yeah, pchaos giving incorrect legal advice is potentially dangerous. What if some poster actually takes him seriously? When pchaos claims to be an attorney he may be taken more seriously than he should be.
