A Chicago lawyer says his opponent in a small claims case is using an unfair tactic by sitting a buxom woman next to him at counsel’s table.

Chicago Attorney, Thomas Gooch made the quote of the year when he made an objection to Paralegal Daniella Atencia‘s presence in the courtroom.  “Personally, I like large breasts,” he said. “However, I object to somebody I don’t think is a qualified paralegal sitting at the counsel table — when there’s already two lawyers there — dressed in such a fashion as to call attention to herself.”

Can't Concentrate......the boobs.....the boobs!!

Attorney Thomas Gooch said that the woman’s sole purpose was “to draw the attention of the jury away from the relevant proceedings” — a dispute over a used car. He asked Cook County Circuit Judge Anita Rivkin-Carothers to order the woman to sit in the gallery with other spectators.  In responding to the pretrial motion, attorney Dmitry N. Feofanov said the woman is his paralegal assistant and contends Gooch cites no “good faith legal argument” why she can’t sit at counsel’s table. Feofanov, who in the past has described himself as a “consumer protection lawyer,” asked Rivkin-Carothers to impose sanctions on Gooch for his motion against busty chicks in the courtroom.

The original photo of the tempting Ms Daniella Atencia has been recovered and can be seen after the jump. Though judging by the glasses and the very conservative buttoned up look, I think Dmitry (the attorney that hired her) has her dress up and conceal her distracting large breasts for the press pic.  Maybe it was as a final slap in the face to Gooch for being such a doodiepants.
