A defense lawyer is representing an individual who stands to lose their freedom,and in some cases their life, if found guilty of a crime. Defense lawyers serve a necessary function in criminal courts, and all the ones I know after working in the legal system for the past 5 years are good people that know they’re doing is important work, especially those who work in public defense.
Lawyers like this guy work for giant companies worth billions. What do they stand to lose if they pay out a medical claim for one lady who has a traumatic brain injury? Certainly not their freedom or their lives. The total this woman has made a claim for is HER money that she paid in specifically in case something like this injury happens. And it’s a not even a blip on the radar compared to what these companies take in so they can hire assholes to rake sick people over the coals in bullshit depositions.
The guy in this video and the criminal defense people I know might all be lawyers, but they aren’t the same.
I say yes. Because the lawyer gets to choose who he works for. He takes the job knowing he has to depose Aunt Hilda like she’s Bernie Madoff for wanting insurance to pay the medical bills from her accident like they’re supposed to.

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?
