** Also, it's made clear he doesn't really ''want'' to advance to junior partner, then eventually senior partner, as he won't do the schmoozing and client-farming required by those positions. He's also ''extremely'' well-paid, even straight-up telling people that he's rich. (He spends the entire series living in a five-star hotel close to the firm because buying a house is too much trouble) Finally, the only two people who can fire him (Denny and Shirley) simply won't do it.

* InformedAbility: Much talk is made of his being a Marine with considerable combat training, but it's never shown. During his fight with Coho, it consists of the two of them throwing clumsy, well-telegraphed punches at each other. He doesn't display any of the fighting skills that would be expected of a former Marine.
