MKR’s Mossy & Gabe Flip Burgers at McCourts Lawyers

Posted by The Spy | Posted in Law and disorder | Posted on 9.02am

It is probably little surprise that Gabrielle Moss, half of the cooking duo “Mossy & Gabe” appearing in the new blockbuster series My Kitchen Rules (ie the reject version of Channel 10’s Masterchef), is such a methodical whiz in the kitchen.

True, she undercooked the cheesecake and misconceived appropriate serving sizes in episode 1, but Mossy & Gabe were the first ”MKR”  (we think this acronym is a giant wank, by the way) duo to show audiences their culinary wares and cooking methodology.

But methods should come easy to Gabe. After all, she has over 20 years experience at McCourts Lawyers, an outfit famed for pioneering the Simplicitor Client Management System. In explaining this system, McCourts Lawyers boldly claim on their website:

We’ve taken the time to make the process behind every legal procedure and transaction as simple and clear as possible. Our Simplicitor Client Management System outlines all the possible steps for each matter. This allows you to quickly see where your particular project is up to, and what the next steps are.

Under the category “Suing & Being Sued”, McCourt offer some very helpful ‘steps’, for example:

Before you see your Lawyer, get all your paperwork together. A client who has done their homework will get the best result from their Lawyer.

Since when did the word ‘lawyer’ command capitalisation? Meanwhile, under the category “Buying and Selling a Business” the very first step in the ‘project’ is provided to consumers of the Simplicitor:

Identify businesses to be bought. Make independent inquiries about industry in which business operates.

With all this simplicity, is it even necessary for McCourts Lawyers to go to work? Or can they whittle away the hours thumbing through the Channel 7 gazette advertising auditions for forthcoming shows? Better still, can lawyers come to work for a legal cook-off?

In Gabe’s case, it seems office cook-offs were squarely on the agenda. Her profile on the McCourts Lawyers website reads:

Gabe has over 20 years experience as a Property Lawyer. She started her career with Rob McCourt in 1986… building her reputation as a Property Lawyer… Gabe has come full circle returning to McCourts as a Consultant… enjoying the social aspects of our small yet busy office.
