They are very handy when you need them. lol. Charge too much though.

Haven't had much to do with them professionally (except for house sales). My youngest is a lawyer  (newly qualified) and her sister is doing a law degree.

I find it odd how you refer to both of your daughters???

My son is a barrister and has worked extremely hard and long hours to get there.  Quite frequently he does pro bono work for people who can't afford it. My DIL is also a lawyer and also works extremely hard.

Dont make them sound to holy, they all HAVE TO do a certian amount of pro bono work.  I had a very good friend who was a well respected barrister and he had to do an amount of pro bono work and did not have the choice of clients.

Like most doctors, its all about the money which is OK if they do the job well and represent their clients to the best of their ability, sadly some don't and that is why respect for our professional people has sunk to a low level.
