By the way Mark Stephens, our lawyer, acted pro-bono for MN in SWMNBN case

[JustineMumsnet]

Just noticed that he's gone public on this. Previously he hadn't wanted it known for tactical reasons. But now he's outed himself we thought you should know what a decent chap he is.

oh what a lovely man.

He is a rather splendid chap.

Huge thanks to him.

What a great guy!

I wonder where Cod is, she will swoon.

Cor, I bet you have a small shrine to him at MNHQ!

I wonder what the other side's legal bill was.

Thankyou.

wow how fab wat a star

I always suspected he might be that kind of person nice to see him getting the credit he deserves

Well bless his cotton socks

(there are some nice people in the world still!)

A Hero

That is thoroughly decent.

Good to see someone doing something decent.

big thank you and big respect

Top bloke!

It's good to see that there are people out there who realise how important it is for sites such as MN to exist

A man of wit, intelligence, and excellent judgement as well as being a defender of morality and all that is right in the world of online publishing.

In fact I think we can safely say that he is the UK's foremost online media legal expert now

ah where its the times legal department?
every time we mention him we get in there
normally as lusty hormonally inbalanced mums at home

and thats only the half of it

tbh MS is a meeja whore ont he sidelines isnt he?
he pops upeveywhere. i hear that he is auditioning for a part in coronation street as a beleagured duty solicitor in a Mag court

We love him even more now .

its his rampant hair.

tis liek Mr burns before he lost his

Hmm. Pro bono isn't some sort of code word for payment in kind, is it?? Just think of the payment in kind he could get from thousands of grateful mners - who are already drooling over his locks .

Seriously, top bloke.

Early morning bump.
