Seymour: ...I uh...well...you see, that...excuse me.
[Seymour goes into office as smoke billows outwards. Then immediately returns.]
Seymour: Well that was a beautiful business meeting. A good time was had by all. I'm pooped.
Chalmers: Yes, I really should be go-GOOD LORD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE!?
Seymour: Norman Rockwell painting another one of his pieces of classic Americana.
Chalmers: Norman Rockwell?! Deceased famed illustrator Norman Rockwell? Painting poorly articulated nineteen fingered hands!? Portrayed in nonsensical spacial perspective!? With seventeen different light sources coming from impossible angles!?
Seymour: Yes.
Chalmers: May I see him?
Seymour: ..No.
Agnes: Seymour! Midjourney is generating AI images again!
Seymour: No mother, that's just a famous illustrator creating his masterpieces.
Charmers: Well Seymour, you are an odd fellow, but I must say, you write a professional sounding email.

I got one from our head dev where he admitted outright using "an agent" to rewrite an ssh tunnel and then finished his sentence with a gemini level question asking if we wanted additional functionality that made no damned sense.
I will then use copilot to translate your manager speak in to regular speech costing the company tokens and fulfilling the company target of using more copilot.
I feel it. To be entirely honest, it was already probably sent by an underpaid secretary or paralegal. Now it's just more apparent that they have too large a caseload.
If it impacts the case, you can see about having them hand it off to another lawyer, but that is definitely something to be strategic about (especially depending on the nature of the work).
Most attorneys are willing to pick up a case or contract work with a sort of finders fee to the first attorney that depends on how much work was done before the handoff.
Not sure if it'll work for you, but I'd try an honest conversation as a lot of the times, attorneys are aware that certain cases/clients aren't the right fit or they may be unable to handle the caseload.
If I were practicing, I would be suuuuper hesitant to do that in any half reasonable jurisdiction. Bar associations (and judges) take client fees pretty seriously and attorneys are already obligated to review everything (even if it's a fiction we all turn a blind eye to).

The tunnel bricked, btw.

Worst case scenario, the attorney can comply but increase their fees; because they have to process things manually.
