“Lawyers and ethics — those are two words that don’t belong in the same sentence!”

by Bitter Lawyer on August 7, 2012 in Legal Ethics

I have so little tolerance for and interest in this joke that I wince in anticipation as soon as I see it start to spew out someone’s mouth. I never quite understand why as soon as reference is made to the legal profession, people immediately make jokes belittling it. I don’t mock any of the professionals I encounter that require some kind of specialized degree: doctors, dentists, orthodontists, speech language pathologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, engineers, etc. I’m not sure what it is about the legal profession that draws in this kind of jest.

I hate the fact that I am probably the most honest person I know yet because of my profession people assume I lie all the time. How did we get such a bad rep?
