Are All Silicon Valley Lawyers Slow to Respond?

Our company lawyer in Silicon Valley, who by all means is a very nice person, has a super-slow turnaround time. It typically takes 2 wees go get a response to an email, and promised paperwork never shows up until after having asked for it more than once, and always weeks after it was promised.

I’ve been told by the few people I’ve asked that this is normal and acceptable behavior from a good lawyer, especially since we have a deferred payment agreement with him, but I still have a hard time believing that. So I wanted to ask the question a little wider here, and ask you if that’s normal?

Incidentally, if you want to recommend us aonther lawyer in the Mountain View/Palo Alto area, I’d love to hear your recommendation.
