Why people hate lawyers: an overview
Lawyers are neurotic, pedantic, disagreeable and egotistic people. I admit that I am. To some extent, lawyers are paid to be that way. But, as with all groups of people, some are cool while most aren’t. And, unfortunately, the uncool ones who think their conduct is entirely acceptable because of cordial silence from peers ruin it for the rest of us. Yet, some of it is inevitable.
Note: And they drag things out so they can suck you dry for that much longer.
Yeah well I think it comes down to power. Attorneys have the power to do these things, so they do it.
ReplyDeleteThey have the power to add a bunch of ridiculous time that they didn't even spend on a case, to the case. Who's going to know? It's like an ATM.
And in legal matters, you as a client HAVE to take care of things even if the attorney is just sucking you dry.
You can cut them loose, but then you have to start all over with another. Meaning more money.

Good luck.
