The morning dawned on one of the finest days during our entire time in Hawaii. Before she could change her mind I called and made a reservation with Hawaii Shark Encounters for the next morning to go swimming with sharks. It was a good legal argument, but the fact that I was going to go with or without her, convinced Alison that we might as well die together. Therefore if she agreed to go she would be insane and thus incapable of giving informed consent. Rob acted as her defence counsel and claimed that only an insane person would voluntarily get into the water with sharks, cage or no cage. I was up for it, but convincing Alison was another story. It looked really interesting and assurances were offered that guests would be safe inside a steel and poly glass cage while the sharks cruised by, only a few feet away.
However, when we were getting supplies the day before I picked up a brochure for Hawaii Shark Encounters and back at the condo went to the website. In planning the trip to Hawaii I had not planned to get into shark infested waters if that happened it would be purely by mistake or an act of God. Anyway I digress, time to talk about real sharks. Funny, in 47 years of practice I’ve never had a person ask for my help where I was the one who created the problem the problems exist long before the client seeks out a lawyer. What’s 20 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? – a good start. Please jump in with us.Īs lawyers Alison and I are used to jokes comparing members of our profession to sharks, bottom feeders and parasites e.g. Today we a going to do something that should definitely get our adrenalin pumping as we plan to join Hawaii Shark Encounters and come face to face with some seriously large sharks.
In the last post we settled in at Turtle Bay Resort on Oahu’s laid back North Shore, played some golf and just generally relaxed. It has been updated for accuracy as of 2021.
