226. Reading through this read has shown me several things:

Many people on here only read only the header and MAYBE a sentence or two, and not the article.

Many people don't understand how our legal system works, and have no idea what Legal Aid, public defense, or pro bono work is, nor what laws and regs an attorney doing said work must legally and ethically adhere to.

Many people just want to slam particular candidates, regardless of facts.

Doing Legal Aid work is a GOOD thing. Even scum legally and ethically deserve an attorney who puts on the most vigorous defense possible. Anything less is legal malpractice.
