What I think of Lawyers

What I think about lawyers, is that they just want the money! They may have the passion and the care towards their clients, but I believe that they are all about the money. Lawyers are supposed to do what they’re job is about. It’s all about protecting their clients, and like in the movie, Erin Brockavich, the 40% of the settlement, went to the lawyer, which I believe is non-sense. That makes it seem like the clients owe him a service tax, which should not be appropriate for the clients to pay. From previous experiences with lawyers, all I have ended up with was empty pockets, and a case that I could have solved myself, by speaking with the truth and with the truth being my very own alibi. On a brighter side, I do appreciate the work of a lawyer. I believe they are really intelligent, and put themselves at a great risk. I just don’t appreciate all the fees and charges that the clients have to go through in order for them to work for the client. Most situations, already deal with financial issues to begin with, and coming up with the extra money for a lawyer for their help, just isn’t the most convenient idea for most situations. So all in all, I do appreciate the hard work and dedication of a lawyer, but I just feel that there needs to be some kind of change or plan for the financial part of getting a lawyer. Having a lawyer is supposed to make the client feel helped, and not burdened! Lawyers need to realize that the fees and charges that their client has to pay in order for their service, plays a really big impact on the client’s decision on having that specific person defending their case!
