=== This movie demonstrates the following tropes: ===
 
* [[Ambulance Chaser]]: Roland T. Flakfizer is ''literally'' an Ambulance Chaser -- his very first appearance in the film features him chasing an ambulance ''on foot'' to the scene of an automobile accident, where he immediately begins to yell about the impending lawsuits he plans to file.
* [[Amoral Attorney]]: Edmund Lazlo, personal attorney to the late Mr. Oglethorpe. He only ''appears'' benevolent to Lillian, but is clearly interested in the directorship only for the money.
