I have never been in trouble with the law (knock on wood). So I haven’t had very much experience with lawyers. I see a lot of the commercials on TV for lawyers in Vegas. Vegas probably have the most commercials for lawyers I have ever seen in my life. My personal opinion on lawyers was with a custody lawyer for my parents. I remember trying to say something that I believed was the truth. The lawyer tried to twist what I was saying and attempted to get me to say things that she wanted to hear. She manipulated and twisted my entire story. In the situation I was trying to be as fair as possible to both sides, but I what I needed to say was the truth which she did not want to hear. I think this was a special case though. I cannot classify all lawyers into one group though. I have met some lawyers that are very good, honest, hard working people. I think we need lawyers to defend the innocent and provide justice for victims of crimes. The law profession is a very important job and it takes the right type of people to complete the job.
I agree with the statement about needing lawyers and not putting them into one category. We have many types of lawyers. We have the Lawyers who are honest and hardworking. As well as Lawyers who only seeks the final check at the end of the case. Lawyers do twist our words in situations as you have experienced, and that’s the tricky side to them. We really don’t know if they are Two faced are not. But as you said the law profession is important, and it takes the right kind of people. Good post and I like your Opinion.
