The plaintiff’s arguments were both false and inherently unbelievable, so the defense attorney said that they did not need to be taken seriously or defended against.
I am here to tell you that no matter how false or unbelievable your adversary’s arguments are, you need to have an attorney who will take the charges seriously, defend against them and refute them.
Why? With no defense, the plaintiff can very possibly perpetrate a fraud on the court. And, the plaintiff will “win” if a court or jury accepts these false arguments, no matter how unbelievable.
My advice would be to immediately replace him or her. If you find yourself in such a situation, feel free to contact me for a second opinion.
