Many attorneys seek to specialize in one area or another, even though they often have a disclaimer telling you the states in which they practice do not allow for specialization and so they are not claiming to be specialists.

I enjoy a challenge...although I am at a slight disadvantage as I am here and you are there...tweaking the site's machinations as any good and dutiful administrator would do...TOS; yes of course I've read them. I reread them frequently, always looking for the bubbled-up, thin-skinned loop-hole that will allow me to manifest My Evil...you run a tight ship in some aspects, but there are ways and means to my ends.

Greedy Lawyers Make All Lawyers Look Bad

911 Victims' Compensation Fund | attorney | ethics

I have read a lot of lawyer jokes in my time; some bad and some good. Most of the jokes tend to show the lawyer as the bad guy, and I would imagine that a decent man or woman making a living as a lawyer, would resent constantly being the brunt of such jokes. I know I would.

Most of us have heard the phrase, "You can’t win them all," many, many times, and, perhaps, even used it ourselves. There is a lot of truth in the statement, so it is probably a good idea, to not even try. Wise people pick their battles carefully, choosing to fight only when they know they can win, or when a principle they cannot bear to see compromised is at stake.

When we are children, we find out that there are certain bullies in the class that we, in most cases, make every effort to avoid.
