Keats McFarland & Wilson
Hall Of Shame Member

Tabberone welcomes its first law firm to the Hall Of Shame, Keats McFarland & Wilson (hereafter KMW), of Beverly Hills, California. When you hear a rumor the first time you take it with a grain of salt. When you hear the same basic rumor, from different people in in similar situations, combined with your own experience, is it still a rumor?
KMW represents an impressive list of clients. But we notice two high-profile clients missing from their list: MGA Entertainment and Chanel.
KMW referes to these clients as being "blue-ribbon". We think "blue-ribbon" translates into "clients who don't care about tactics or how much they are billed."
FilmTracks.com has an interesting chat thread titled "20th Century Fox and their lawyers are idiots". 20th Century Fox's lawyers are KMW.
A group in Sweden, called ThePirateBay.org, received a "cease and desist" from KMW. ThomasHawk.com posted the reply to the C&D, commenting "Dennis Wilson at Keats McFarland & Wilson certainly is a jackass."
The reply to the C$D informs KMW that "Sweden is not a state in the United States" and that "US law does not apply" and ends with "It is the opinion of us and our lawyers that you (KNW) are fucking morons and closes with other sweetness.
At our deposition with KMW, Larry McFarland jokingly complained that all we had said about him was he had "had a kitten" over a motion we had filed.
Larry, we neglect you no longer. Our notes about the deposition and other matters.

Rebuttals
