All those lawyers who are making millions in malpractice cases ought to give 10% of their 'winnings' to help the poor. After all they're interested in justice, aren't they?
Excuse me? As an attorney (and not making millions on malpractice cases) I can tell you that I am not interested in justice, I am interested in making money. lots of money. Lots and lots and lots of money.
I just don't seem to get the cases that make that much money (D@%& that pesky streak of honesty, just can't seem to get rid of it).
A lot of lawyers do donate to the indigent defense programs along with their annual bar dues. Not to mention that those who agree to take indigent cases do so at greatly reduced fees. Not to mention pro bono work that always falls under the radar of those who think there aren't lawyers with a soul.
