I don't see how all this 'advice' is less than hypocritical.

I keep hearing 'overshoot' your salary range when negotating by X... and then when this lawyer does it OP should suddenly "run, dont walk, away from this dude"?

Strange crowd ...

There's overshooting and there's asking over an order of magnitude the going rate. That suggests a lack of moral fibre to me.
