It can be hard to not lump us all into the same category of "CROOK", but remember the old saying "one bad apple spoils the whole bunch". No one wants to be assumed to be a crook just because they are in the same profession as some people who are crooks. There are dishonest people in ALL professions if you look deep enough. Assume positive intent until given reason not to do so.www.BerkemerLaw.com Unfortunately there are some attorneys out there who aren’t very honest. We’re not all crooks.

Why hand over thousands of dollars in fees and hundreds of dollars in costs just to be disappointed or dissatisfied? We all know the attorneys do 5%, 20% at best, of the work anyways.
