[Agwara pulls up into a handicapped spot in front of the family courthouse and hangs his handicapped placard from the rear view window of his Bentley ... "healthy as a horse" is how his demeanor is described]Citizen: [shouting] "You don't look handicapped!"Agwara: "Well, you never know."Citizen: "So if my mother, who does have a handicap plate and needs a spot like this shows up, she won't have the space because of you."Agwara: "What is your name and who do you work for?"Citizen: [replies]Agwara: "Have you ever been sued?"Citizen: "You're going to sue me? For what? Telling the truth?"Agwara: "For talkin' shit!" [walks into the courthouse]
Class act, huh? We wonder why attorneys get such a bad rap. We're sure Agwara was just having a bad day ... he looks like such a cheerful guy on his billboards.
Our tipster also sent along some pictures:
Be sure to take a look at Agwara's website. You'd think someone who is "Ivy League-trained" would have better manners. We got a chuckle out of his profile, which reads (verbatim):
Before attending law school, Libo Agwara was a ???????? with a strong background in ?dadadadadadada. He is well known and respected throughout the west. Area Attorney view Libo Agwara as such a formidable opponent in the courtroom, People seek him when they or a friend or family member needs an attorney. Libo Agwara is regularly represent the legal interests of their members.
(Thanks Tipster!)
You left out the best parts of his profile!

Great post!
ReplyDeleteI think the incomplete profile will ultimately vindicate Libo though because I think it will say,
"Before law school Libo Agwara was a handi-capable steroid abuser with a strong background in wheel-chair jujitsu."
The fact that he can walk into court on his own two feet today is nothing short of a miracle (if my madlib happens to be correct)
Excuse me, who?
ReplyDeleteExactly...
Whoo.. not only does he sound like an asshole, and act like one, he parks like one too. At least get in the lines dude.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite paragraph from his profile:
ReplyDelete"We have mastered the complex system of state and federal laws governing all aspect of law. Our ability to use that knowledge to protect our clients’ rights, together with our courtroom capabilities, has repeatedly gained us leadership in State of Nevada"
He has mastered the complex laws that governs all law!! What is he talking about? The Rules of Civil Procedure??
"Before attending law school, Libo Agwara was a DOUCHE with a strong background in FAKING IT."
ReplyDeleteHow did this douche make enough money to purchase a Bentley?
ReplyDelete"Before attending law school, Libo was a Nigerian prince who successfully suckered stupid Americans into sending him money to help smuggle Nigeria's money to the U.S."
ReplyDeleteNo wonder he is such a douche.
I love how whenever an attorney is "Ivy league educated" they went to Cornell. If they went to Harvard or Yale they'd just come out and say it.
ReplyDeleteNice move Liborious.
I watched "Some University" dominate Harvard last week in football, to clinch the Ivy League title.
ReplyDeleteDo the Model Rules only apply to some people and not others?
No joke - his car is parked by the RJC right now (south of the Clark Place building). Handicap placard in the window, but not in a handicapped spot.
ReplyDeleteThe website sounds like it was drafted by the same nice young man who is helping me to make millions of dollars helping the deposed former president of nigeria to smuggle his ill gotten gains from the country. They do try to speak english.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone here work with him during his 2000-2001 tenure at Gordon & Silver?
ReplyDeleteObviously he spent the money earmarked for his website on his Bently.
ReplyDeleteThe sad thing is that his website is much more detail oriented than his legal briefs.
The guy has a section on his web page called "Jokes"!!!!! You click on it and it has a lame lawyer-genie joke on it (of course it's spelled "lawer joke")...what a class act.
ReplyDeleteThat's a temp placard. How do we know he isn't temporarily handicapped?
ReplyDeleteLOL @10:40-seriously, this guy tapped into his website fund for his car.
ReplyDeleteAs a side note, am I the only person who is already sick of the trendy terms "douche," "douche bag," "d-bag," etc., etc.? It seems like its re-emergence came roaring back and became played out all too quickly.
to 11:02
ReplyDeleteI've been using "douchebag" for years. I think it has more bite than, say, "asshole" or "dick". And it's more useable than "fuckwad". "Needle dick" is pretty good, but it's better for wimps than for irritating persons. "Fuckhead" is good, but it suffers from the same useability problems as "fuckwad". "Dickhead" is also acceptable, and better than "dick".
Don't get me started on "cunt" . . . that one is fraught with difficulties.
I think it's just very reassuring you can have a
ReplyDeleteterrible website,
half-assed profile,
gloomy, pissed off looking photos,
reportedly poor writing
bad attitude to the public when in FRONT of the courthouse
and STILL do well enough in Vegas to roll in a Bentley Continental GT.
I agree with 11:16 - we (associates and non-equity partners) can all stand to learn a thing or two from this guy.
ReplyDeleteOf course, chances are, he's leveraged to the hilt like every other douchebag fuckwad in this town.
@ 10:51
ReplyDeletePerhaps he is temporarily handicapped...
Mentally handicapped!
A few points about Libo:
ReplyDelete1. He started his illustrious legal career with G&S about 8 years ago or so, and was terminated after less than a year there.
2. Libo failed the Nevada bar the first time around.
3. Libo used to apparently be an undergrad professor in something and also a used car salesman.
4. Libo has been sanctioned at least once by Bankruptcy Judge Judge Markell (for only a few hundred bucks) in Bankruptcy Court.
Don't forget this important disclaimer:
ReplyDelete(all above information are far from Accuracy Still pending Mr. Libo Correction)
(If you can still read this information in red! That indicate the above information is, still pending Mr. Agwara final approval)
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy his name in backlit gothic lettering! Nothing says smart, agressive representation like flashy Ed Hardy-like lettering on a law office's webiste.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding item and comments.
ReplyDelete--Gen. Obasanjo
Failed the bar three times?
ReplyDeleteHow is this guy not in the running for the open seat in Federal Court?
Is that Libo in the Auto Accidents section of his website? Can you say reverse Michael Jackson.
ReplyDeleteHow do you feel about "ass-clown", @11:14 AM?
ReplyDelete@11:14 - I must say that the greatest curse I've ever been introduced to is asshat. For one whose head is so far up their ass that it becomes a hat. Clever.
ReplyDelete@11:02 - I was raised in New Jersey. I assure that I have been saying douchebag since I was a toddler and never stopped. Perfect curses are works of art in Jersey and all variations of the d word have been around for many, many years.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, my father wasn't supposed to curse around me when I was little, so he had to get creative. (I learned all of the words from my older brother instead.) So, evil men were pricks of misery. Evil women were whores of Babylon.
Fine cursing defies trends and it is one area that New Jersey actually excels in.
Assclown is great, and I actually really like asshat, too (though I admittedly had never heard of it until now).
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I actually don't mind douchebag-it just seems it is getting overused by everybody and their dog lately.
Sincerely,
11:14 the assclown with an asshat.
My mistake, I was actually 11:02 ^^^
ReplyDeleteOh my, you have made my day. Best post of the month. What a blog should be. Who cares about my productivity today. I can always practice "??????????" law.
ReplyDeleteDouchebag is a classic. It's much better than Bee-otch, which will be extinct in just a few years.
ReplyDeleteJudge Agwara has a ring to it. I love affirmative action.
ReplyDeleteI hate it when I think of something clever and someone was cleverer first.
ReplyDeleteI really wanted to use the "Nigerian Prince trying to patriate his millions in the US and needing your help" line but got beat to the punch.
However, this D-bag has a Sweet-A car !! The only thing missing here is a Judge Miley fake T's reference.
Does Agwara-Miley work as a hyphenation ? (Post divorce from Ed, of course). I bet the Nigerian prince could afford that PHAT house in Red Rock.
"Knob-gobbler" can be used in polite company, since it takes a few minutes to really figure out what you said...by then the conversation has moved on to other things, but "ass-hatted, ass clown" pretty much nails the best ones. Douchebag is becoming too mainstreamed, and therefore less cool. I appreciate the educational experience that WWL provides in these matters.
ReplyDeleteAss monkey?
ReplyDeleteI do have to say, it's nice to finally get some good, uplifting discussion around here. There's been a bit of a drought, but today has been nice. I've added a few insults to my quiver so that I can finally address the assclown who keep swiping my faxes, the asshatter opposing counsel and the knob gobbler Nigerian prince who just swindled me.
Careful guys, if we keep throwing around which term is the most appropriate, LE will create a poll that will consume three weeks of the blog. :)
ReplyDeleteKidding of course...love the blog!
And Douche Bag is still the best term for the Nigerian Prince (with asshat, ass clown, and tool following in that order).
pshht....."tool"? Come on man, while it's obviously true, we can do better than that. Why not just call him a nincompoop?
ReplyDeleteAccording to the state bar's website, Libo has no professional liability insurance.
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of him before I saw a billboard for him this morning.
ReplyDeleteRefreshing. Truly refreshing. I'll drink in this sweet smell of refreshing discourse.
ReplyDeleteWe have a bunch of attorneys with handicap placards. Randy Miley is one. I see him hang his up all the place and walk very well to wherever he is going. Yea, yea he has a heart condition.
ReplyDeleteBullshit - if you ask me he needs the walk. His middle is a little too much beer and not enough f#$king in his life!
But that is another story. This is just about another hosebag attorney that gives us all a bad name.
Why, in our modern and enlightened world, can't I call someone a "cunt"?
ReplyDelete7:09
ReplyDeleteIn my experience (as a male), there does not seem to be any word or phrase that you can call a male which even comes close to inciting as much venom or emotion as calling a female as the "c" word. Why is that? Why does a single word evoke such strong emotions by females? I'll also open this up to the creative persons -- can you think of any word or phrase that males would consider as derogatory as females consider the "c" word?
Another question: Why is the c word so much more common (and perhaps acceptable) across the pond?
ReplyDeleteThe "c-word" is the nastiest word in the English Language (in the US). I don't ever let it slip, and feel dirty if I think it. I have no idea why it's so vile...it's just one of those things.
ReplyDeleteCussing is an art form. You cannot merely know the words, you must also know the tune.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the quote of the Matrix - cussing in French is like wiping your ass with silk? I wish I could cuss in French.
ReplyDeleteWhat about using the term "canker blossom"? Gentile and disgusting at the same time. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteI know it's stolen from an SNL skit but I'm really partial to "Cork Soaker." It's technically clean yet makes the point. And, it can be used in various forms. For example, one could say, "I wonder how many corks Libo soaked to buy that Bentley." Or, "Judge (insert name here) can go soak the big cork."
ReplyDelete@ 5:40
ReplyDeleteI would like to reply to that comment but I'm kinda preoccupied. Elle is currently soaking my cork.
@5:46 - Awwww, a suggestive post for the beautiful female blogger. Are you the same one who asked to "see [my] tits" when I first started contributing for the site? I think you have a crush.
ReplyDeleteTo use all of the other words that I've learned from this post, you are acting like an asshat and a douchebag. My profile clearly states that I am a married woman.
But since I'm a lady and I don't like to curse, I'll simply call you an evil prick of misery like @2:00's father would.
Want to have some fun?
ReplyDeleteSee whether you can identify the serial number on the handicapped sticker from the photo; then you can contact the DMV and find out whether it was issued to "Mr. Nice Guy" or to somebody else, from whom Mr. Nice Guy, um -- borrowed -- it.
If the latter, then there is probably a violation of law for misuse of the sticker -- by both Mr. Nice Guy and the truly handicapped person to whom it was issued.
That would give rise to some preliminary fun -- file a complaint with the DMV, which could have the handicapped sticker revoked (poor truly handicapped person will have to re-apply for a new issue), and here's the really fun part --
File a grievance against Mr. Nice Guy with the Bar's professional conduct committee for violation of the law in a manner that brings disrepute to the profession.
That will occupy a lot of non-billable time for Mr. Nice Guy as he tries to explain away his conduct to his peers.
FUN STUFF!
