i dont know man, im envious to some of wal-mart's shirts.

I like Wal-Mart.......I just couldn't think of anything to be ANGRY about!;)

Just because you are rich, does it make you a 'fuck'?

Hey we try to make our work as better as we can.....and some time we have to work like "evil's lawyers. I hope that the people that came to my firm were absolutly inocents, but as far as this could be always posible, we have to work anyway givin' to some bastards the best defence that we can bring to them. Otherwise AMEN FOR ALL THE REST OF THE POINTS THAT YOU HAVE MENTION.

For the other people, you can't talk about something without starting a verbal fight with other users??? C'mon it's not so difficult.

Lawyers are necessary, even if they sometimes defend the worst criminals who don't deserve a trial. That is the system we have. "The law is reason, free from passion" (Aristotle)

Exactly, when we wanted a sistem that provides justice on equal conditions for everyone, that means that everyone has the right to defence in a court, no matter if you are a inocent one or the biggest killer in the world.

By the other hand there's no money in this world who can pay the tension of carry the defence of someone that you know that it's a criminal....but it's our work, thanks to god not every client is a criminal.

Yes, selfish corporate government. Not giving a damn about the common people; not considering their feelings on any given issue, policy and/or manifesto. Giving power to smokescreen authorities like local councils who are meant to work for the people but just steal thousands of pounds off of us to line their pockets, buy their big cars and houses and shaft us at any given opportunity.

Tax on tax on tax on tax on............

Coming down heavy on the victim and rewarding the perpetrator; giving precedence to a short term immigrant and conveniently forgetting the long term citizen of a given country.

I guess the list goes on..........

No wonder there is an undercurrent of unease and unrest in most of us today!

oh no..em not disresputing lawyers and thier jobs..
hell no.. :D
I personally happen to think that this is probably one of the hardest filed of work to get into..considering.
Oh no..i like lawyers..in fact i had one over to fix my roof the other day..

j/k..just foolin with ya. :o

A lawyer to fix your roof??? If he did a good job and din't cost so much maybe I will call him to fix mine;-) Well I'm pretty susceptible with this kind of things just cause I listen things like that all the time (but in so much rude way), on special when we work like prosecution.....A firm mate had a problem with a client just cause he talk with the lawyer that carried the defence in one case after the trial. Peope don't acept that we can be friends of the oponent.

I have a great lawyer.
but as i said...oooh..not a career i would want to get into.:D

I actually take my hat off to you all.
