My head nearly exploded when I read this newspaper’s Aug. 28 “Advice of Counsel” column.
Why? The first two paragraphs of this column tells us, “Three years of law school no longer cuts the mustard.” The public, it maintains, “needs to evaluate the lawyer they are planning to hire and trust. If a potential client engages a lawyer with little or no experience in the field of a client’s issue, there is a possible difference in the level of service that will be provided and possibly the chances of success,” it says. “This can lead to client disappointment and less trust in the profession as a whole.”
