It is unfair to believe everything we hear about lawyers, some of it might not be true.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think lawyers have a fidelity to the system itself that's always got to be with them, and indeed, most of the defense lawyers I know observe that.
I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they're wrong. And not just admitting it; also realizing it. Most lawyers are very successful, and they think that because they're making money and people think well of them, they must be doing everything right.
I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they're wrong. And not just admitting it - also realizing it.
The lawyer's truth is not Truth, but consistency or a consistent expediency.
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.
Lawyers are for only what is right.
To some lawyers, all facts are created equal.
Lawyers are like beavers: They get in the mainstream and dam it up.
Lawyers work hard and, like us, they're human, many of them.
Lawyers enjoy a little mystery, you know. Why, if everybody came forward and told the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth straight out, we should all retire to the workhouse.
