What do I think of lawyers?

Lawyers can protect our society but they can also harm our society. The system can be screwed up in many ways such as what is fair and isn’t fair. So many trials have been won due to by the book lawyers and then there are the ones that don’t play by the book and they have their own set of rules. These lawyers are the ones that usually tend to get paid a huge amount to make sure that the client gets off free. For example the OJ Simpson was a prime example of this you had your good and your bad lawyers such as Johnny Cochran that let a man go. Lawyers to me are like doctors and car salesman there after your money. Who can you really trust in the government or congress at that matter? It really makes you wonder is the judicial system fair or is it? Lawyers are focused on getting paid and their out to get their money. Lawyers like to lie in court and make the jury think that their client is innocent because there’s not enough evidence against them. Lawyers seem to get away with so much due to their title of being a lawyer. Lawyers remind me of doctors they want you to keep on coming back for more. Truth is not something that they usually speak it’s usually a false pretense. Although theirs is some lawyers that fight for the client because the client is innocent and not guilty. The guilty ones will get karma eventually. Lawyers are real sneaky and their tactics are very overpowering over the court system. They can be jerks and they also can be the nicest people because they speak the truth.

  1. Allison, your blog on lawyers is very interesting and it brings some very valid points to the absurdity of their profession. Your comment on the O.J. Simpson trial was very good. I agree with you that O.J. Simpson was guilty but due to a good lawyer and loopholes in the system, he ended up walking away a free man. I think we both share the same feelings about lawyers and how they operate. There are many good lawyers out there but it sometimes seems like there are more bad ones. The relationship that my mom has with her lawyer is very good. But I think it’s good because he understands his client’s pain and trouble. He’s the type of lawyer that looks at the client first and the money second.
