Outrageous, but the almighty buck plays into this, doesn't it?

Did you know that 99% of attorneys give the rest a bad name???
Are you suggesting that accused shouldn't be allowed a proper defense? Or that people who feel that they may be wronged shouldn't be able to hire a competent attorney to represent them?

I know things get out of hand and that there are ambulance chasers out there that try to make cases out of nothing. The problem is where do we draw the line?

We have rights guaranteed by our constitution and I'm very thankful that we do.
