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.

Lawyers advocate more so than state their own positions.

You can't be a practicing attorney without being very disciplined and detail-oriented and having good time management.

There are some lawyers who think of themselves as basically instruments of whoever their clients are, and they pride themselves on their professional craft.

Lawyers work hard and, like us, they're human, many of them.

I think most defense attorneys honestly believe the principle that says, 'Better 10 guilty go free than even one possibly innocent person be convicted.'

I have been surrounded by some of the smartest, brightest, most caring lawyers, by agents who are willing to risk their lives for others, by support staff that are willing to work as hard as they can.

You see, some lawyers have the talent, have the charisma, but no discipline. They come into court unprepared, without having done their research.

Lawyers are men who hire out their words and anger.
