Went a few months ago, really good overall. We stayed in Manuel Antonio and thought it had a great mix of nature and beach. American prices though overall. Also it's a very well developed and safe country, so you don't have to worry about things such as drinking the water, unmarked taxis, etc.

Crazy ethics issue. Client 1 has VPO against man who later becomes Client 2. This is the 4th VPO this year, previous ones dismissed.

In the meantime, State has filed rape charges against man who becomes Client 2 and A/B charges against Client 1. Client 1 also files for divorce.

Clients reconcile (which is how they both end up clients...) and want VPO dismissed, divorce dismissed, and criminal charges dismissed.

DHS gets involved and want to remove the child from Client 1's custody. (1/2)
