Indeed. Can you think of any honest "conservative" lawyers? Off the top of my head, I simply can't.
No, I can't. The main problem with lawyers, especially criminal lawyers, is that instead of trying to discern the truth, they develop narratives to present in court. Court cases are won or lost depending on which lawyer presented the best narrative.
When the legal system is built around who is most skillful at convincing people of a story, regardless of the facts, then dishonesty is built in.
