You never answer my question.stasheroo;1549752 said:Well I hope you've gotten your answer counselor.

Your point?

If that is the only pliable defense he can find at this point, well you've heard the saying "nothing beats a try". And you can bet pacman is paying good money to the lawyer and expects him to come up with something.dcfanatic;1549758 said:Is this lawyer really trying the old 'he didn't have a reason to pull him over' routine?
I would really like to find a court case where that worked because it's just silly. We pay these officers to endanger their lives on a daily basis to be the eyes and ears who protect and serve us while keeping us safe from evil. With that said if the officer thought that Pacman was acting suspicious he could pull him over with no questions asked.
Did someone forget to tell this lawyer that he also switched plates from another car. Pacman thinks he is above the law and can do anything he wants in this country because he has some money.
Please ban this moron from the NFL and while we are at it why not ban him from this planet.
The disdain for lawyers isn't anything new and has been ongoing for very long time. Many hate them because they can't afford to have a decent representation and many because appearance of lawyers lining their pocket with major litigations like class A action lawsuits or malpractice lawsuits where most of the monetary awards are used to pay the lawyers. And of course others hate them because they believe lawyers will do anything, including circumvent the laws to protect known criminals. But basically they are hated because they believe lawyers are using our legal system as their personal cash cow.Hoov;1549792 said:Honestly, i dont understand all the animosity towards lawyers.

I do find it interesting that there are millions imprisoned worldwide, and people calls most of them murderers, rapists, and scum, but to lawyers, they're called customers or clients.

Another consideration, if you are being represented, most people hate paying, what, one, two, hundred dollars and hour, give or take a penny here or there!
But, like the saying goes, "you can hate cops all you want, but you love them when YOU need them"!
Same thing with an attorney...they have mothers that love them!
(we love our Zone attorneys, right)?

5Stars;1549847 said:How about $5.00 for an aspirin? Or, how about $375.00 to go see why you have a sore throat? Or what about something like $700.00 for an overnight hospital stay?
That's why health insurance is so expensive, too! Now, if we could only get Attorney Insurance?
Hmmm, I wonder if I could start a business like that?
