How many of the drafters & signers of the Constitution were lawyers? How many of the founding era Presidents, Senators & Congressmen who wrote the laws were lawyers? Have all judges always had law degrees? Have all Supreme Court Justices had law degrees? And where is it written in the law that one MUST have a lawyer represent them, in writing or in person, in any court?

You are giving me advice on how to write briefs and practice law.

How many years have you been practicing law?

How many Appellate Briefs have you written?

Just asking.
