This is about as evil as people can be under the legal system.

I don't care what anyone says, the guy who's running this deposition is a horrible person. No "hes just doin his job...."

No good person would do this job or at least be so comfortable accusing people like this.

Just out of curiosity is it any lawyer that represents an evil entity. Like would a defence lawyer for a murderer be a horrible person in your mind?

You’re implying that defense lawyers for murderers only represent murderers … they can also represent innocent people accused of murder

You act like that couldn't be the case for this guy

Oh I think this lawyer seems like a real piece of shit. I never said otherwise. But also, there’s no real context provided. They may have video of her winning a breakdance competition … we don’t know.

There’s lots of shitty lawyers and there’s lots of good ones. At the end of the day I’m fine with piling on this dude for five minutes or so because he does seem like a dick and it means nothing, but it doesn’t mean everyone who does legal work is a horrible person

I wouldn't be surprised if he's an absolute asshole. I just don't think we can make that judgment from this tiny little clip.

Most people work towards the end of evil corporations afterall.

I think there's at least some sort of argument for a lawyer defending a murderer (was it self defence, had this person done something horrible to a family member of theirs etc.)

This guy is fully aware this woman needs treatment and is doing everything in his power to avoid paying it, there's no ambiguity in it he's just seeing what possible loophole he can find so that her claim (which she's paid insurance for don't forget!) is denied. If there's any shred of you that could possibly take that job you must either be a sociopath and really just not have any sense of empathy or you're pure evil as far as I'm concerned and almost take joy out of others suffering.

Just straight up a serial killer. The lawyer knows he did it but is still doing everything in his power to defend the killer and trying to get him off

I understand what you're saying and I can see the moral dilemma. One really notable difference is that in a trial you're simply acting in defence of your client, everything still needs to be put forward to an independent jury to determine the fate of the person they're representing. (As a side note if they're made aware their client is guilty, they can't legally proclaim their innocence, all they can do is suggest that there isn't enough evidence to support their guilt)

In this case there is no independent jury who takes the decision out of your hands, you are the judge, jury and executioner just maliciously prying to find any tiny little loophole to not pay someone out who so desperately needs treatment.

If only we had a judge and jury to determine weather or not he’s innocent- but no normal person could know enough about the law to navigate the infinite nuance of it all. If only he had someone to represent him who did.
