Going to trial with a lawyer who considers your whole life-style a Crime in Progress is not a happy prospect.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's fine to get paid and get a big verdict, but to go out and represent people, sometimes in unglamorous ways, is really what lawyering is all about.
It doesn't make sense for me to be a lawyer in a place where there is no law.
If you're dealing with criminals, they're not going to want to go to court.
Being a trial lawyer sounds like glamorous work, but most of your time is spent pushing paper and arguing.
Decisions on a matter as serious as charging an individual with a crime cannot be decided on anything less than complete examination of all available evidence. Anything less is not justice.
One is never more on trial than in the moment of excessive good fortune.
Im a soulless lawyer. Give me any opinion and I can argue it.
And unless you think there is a serious chance you're going to jail, don't listen to your lawyer.
The only way you can beat the lawyers is to die with nothing.
A lapse in judgment is not a crime.
