Watch what you say about lawyers — and now it seems about law schools as well, specifically Michigan’s Thomas M. Cooley Law School. [TaxProf, Above the Law]

Although named after a distinguished Michigan jurist, Thomas Cooley has a poor reputation.
At least one of the articles said that this is a preemptive lawsuit because of a Craigslist ad that was trolling for potential plaintiffs to sue the school for alleged false placement numbers.
I hope there are lots of follow ups. As a non-lawyer, it’s tremendous fun to watch them spending their own money.
