Alan: Shirley, the truth is I only took this case to be in court with you. I enjoy your company. So, if I can't join you on cases, I'll just have to oppose you. Or I could just oppose you right now against the wall. That would certainly make me happy.
-
Denny: Bethany, Brad'll be your point-man here, if you need anything go to him. If you're not satisfied... you come to me.
-
Shirley: Your Honor, Mr Tiggs has a history of ruining women's lives. There's one out there right now. It's going to take her years to get over this.
Ivan: No, she'll get over me, she's like a goldfish. She has a three second memory.
-
Judge Reese: In my chambers.
(Alan gets up)
Judge Reese: Just Ms Schmidt and Mr Tiggs.
Alan: Couldn't I come and just watch?
Judge Reese: (He glares at Alan and speaks menacingly) No.
-
Denny: One meeting.
Bethany: In these offices. I'll call it even.
Denny: Not quite. One condition. Take off your clothes.
Bethany: What!
Denny: Oh come on. That was the initial plan. We hit it off, eventually... we get together, naked. Take off your clothes. Let me see that little package.
Bethany: You are the most disgusting, vulgar human being I have ever met.
Denny: You're right... Just the top then?
-
Denny: A meeting? Would I have to talk?
Bethany: You're much more impressive when you don't.
-
Alan: Mr Tiggs did satisfy you didn't he?
Shirley: I'm under oath. It wasn't his best work.

(About Judge Hooper)
Denise: You sure it was the husband?
Lincoln: I am. He drives some sort of little white convertible, in an attempt, I suppose, to seem interesting, which he's not. Not at all. He's a nasty little man. He made her get that restraining order against me. He made her do it.
Denise: Well, you are a Peeping Tom.
Lincoln: She liked that. She liked that I looked. I was a benign peepy.
-
(About Bethany suing Denny)
Denny: What do you mean she won't drop it?
Claire: She's hurt. My advice is if you really want this to go away, you have to apologize and this time make it heartfelt.
Denny: Do you do that?
Claire: Never.
-
Claire: You two spoke over the Internet for two weeks, divulging personal intimate details. You leave out the fact that you're under three feet tall. Do you think that's honest?
Bethany: Look at him. Did I get Mel Gibson?
(Denny makes a pose)
Bethany: Maybe I did.
-
Claire: Okay, before we start, I want it on the record that I am very uncomfortable deposing a dwarf.
Bethany: What's that supposed to mean?
Claire: It means I'm uncomfortable. I don't need any victims rights groups picketing outside my condo. Not to mention the fact, you obviously have deep psychological issues to accept any date with a seventy-two year old man, let alone...
(stares at Denny)
Claire: Him.
-
(to Ivan)
Shirley: What I can tell you is, there is no back door. That post-nup is as tight as your soon to be sixth ex-wife's tushy.
-
(about Ivan's wife, Missy)
Ivan: God, I hate her.
Shirley: Oh boy.
Ivan: I tried this time. I want to love her. No, I do love her. She's just too much. Too much singing, too much sex. I'm not a young man anymore. And, well, there's the fact that she's stupid.
-
Jonathan: Let me tell you something right now. If you start to intimidate my witnesses...
Jeffrey: Why yours? Do you have dibs?
Jonathan: Is this the way you wanna play it? Fine.
Jeffrey: Doesn't seem we can settle this with words. Maybe we should fight.
(Judge Hooper and Jonathan stare at him)
Jeffrey: Why does everyone in Boston just stare at me?
-
(about Gracie Jane)
Paul: My God. We need to gag this woman.
Denny: I did once. Best sexual experience of my life.
-
Jeffrey: The angry, bald little husband killed his wife... just like in the movies.
-
Shirley: (threatening) Your resume intact?
Alan: Shirley, you're being retaliatory; it becomes you.
-
Alan: I'm a man of principle--or not--whatever the situation calls for.
-
Denny: Let the games begin small fry.
