lawyers...?
Q. lets just say the person they are defending has admited they are guilty of a mass murder why would a lawyer still back them and try and get them a lower sentence? seems wrong to me, even though i guess its all about money like what if the person got out early because of the lawyer and killed the lawyers family, would they deserve it?

A. It's not about the money. It's about the need for a barrier between the government saying "put that tool in jail forever" and the law saying that there needs to be a good reason. Thomas More's son-in-law yelled at him one day saying, "You would give the devil himself due process of law!" Saint Thomas's reply: "I would indeed, for my own safety's sake. Take away due process and who among us could stand against the storm that would follow." The hypothetical you pose is of course ludicrous.

Any lawyers know the best way to start a solo bankruptcy practice?
Q. Are there any lawyers out there who practice bankruptcy who could tell me how difficult it would be to start a solo bankruptcy practice and how I might go about doing this. First, is this the kind of think that I could figure out with form books and software or should I work in a firm first? Also, could I mainly do Chapter 7's or do I really need to do all kinds to stay afloat? Any helpful info by experienced bankruptcy lawyers would be greatly appreciated! I'm licensed in Mississippi if that helps.

A. There is a lot that law school doesn't teach about the practice of law. I would get a job with a firm for a few years if possible. It will give you basic knowledge, and can give you time to build a good reputation, the most important asset you have. There is a decent book about building a solo practice.

How do lawyers determine pro bono work other than publicity reasons?
Q. Is it also true that lawyers must do some level of pro bono work annually to be bar certified? Is this work primarily discretionary or is there a formula involved in pro bono work other than publicity? Is pro bono work generally speaking done for financial gain or good intentions? Answer 3 Dan: "Publicity has nothing to do with it" Laff***
Asked by Joe B - Thu Oct 1 16:05:35 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. No state that I know of mandates pro bono work. Every state does ask their attorneys to perform a certain number of pro bono hours, but they don't have the ability to enforce that. Past that, if you're an attorney in private practice, its pretty much up to your discretion what cases you want to take on a pro bono basis. Personally, I generally take ones that will not require a huge amount of time and where I feel I can actually do some good. Typically, this means cases for troops returning from overseas that are having issues or people that are getting bullied by creditors. As for how other people decide, that's up to them.

How do lawyers make so much money?
Q. I know a lot of you make think this is a dumb question but I'm going to ask it anyway. I know lawyers charge a lot for different services but don't they use that money to pay for court costs, paying assistants, filing fees, recording fees, etc...? Do lawyers make money off of small cases or is it the big lawsuits that rack in the dough? Btw, I'm not trying to bash lawyers at all.
Asked by Ilovepeanutbutter - Mon Jul 31 19:12:59 2006 - - 16 Answers - 1 Comments
A. It's a matter of volume. A personal injury attorney, for example, might have 100 cases or so, and can expect to win or settle at least 80% of them. Even if each case takes between six months and three years to complete, the attorney generally takes a third fee of the recovery from the case. At that rate, they tend to make a pretty good living, even after paying secretarial staff and overhead. Most cases never make it to the jury - it takes too much time, and most parties would rather have a reasonable settlement quickly, on both sides of the issue. Some attorneys really don't make much money, though. Some work for legal aid organizations that don't pay much, and others take a lot of pro bono (free) cases from which they don't make any… [cont.]

A. Everyone has access to public records - that's why they're called "public records". You'd be surprised at the sophistication of some of the search engines that are available now. And depending on the situation, such as litigation, an attorney might be entitled to request and receive what would otherwise be private or confidential information that is not accessible to the public at large. This is usually accomplished via a subpoena duces tecum.

Every profession has its own pros and cons. Look around who is making a good money and living well ...? Can't you see doctors and lawyers among them?

A. It's confusing as to which party you are. If the defendant accepted service at your lawyer's office, he's served. If he handed a response to the secretary, you're served. If he mailed it from any mailbox in the US you're served. If it was his lawyer, he can send whatever he wants cert mail, and if your argument is improper service, you're standing there and will likely proceed. Best you'll get is a continuance to prepare. Worst is if you don't show up, your opponent successfully argues that you were properly served and he wins by default. Is it worth it?

A. As far as I'm considered, a lawyer doesn't to good or bad when he is representing a client, but the client may have done good or bad things. A lawyer needs to represent his client to the best of his ability, no matter how despicable and horrible that client's crimes may have been. That being said, I think a lot of lawyers do good things as well. Even very successful lawyers do pro bono work to help people who cannot afford legal representation for example. But in short, a lawyer is only as good as the client he has. A prosecutor may be considered "good" when he is prosecuting a child molestor, and "bad" when he is prosecuting a broke mom for stealing food to feed her children. It's all relative.
