- Order a frank with everything at Law Dogs, a Van Nuys,
- Calif., hot dog stand, and you'll get onions, chili, cheese --
- and a dollop of professional legal advice. The last comes
- courtesy of proprietor and practicing attorney Kim Pearman. In
- 1980 Pearman grew restless with the dog-eat-dog world of
- litigation and erected the world's first combination law office
- and wienerama, which offers legal help to go every Wednesday
- night. And while his culinary canines range in price from a
- $1.15 plain Plaintiff Dog to a fully dressed $1.45 Judge Dog,
- Pearman's jurisprudence plat du jour is free of charge.
-
- From a rocking chair behind the kitchen, Pearman dispenses
- advice on divorce, landlord-tenant disputes and other food for
- tort. Locals have developed a taste for Pearman's guidance.
- Referrals from agencies and simple word of mouth have brought
- 10,000 client customers to his door, hungry for justice.
