Question for lawyers?

[chroix]

There are definitely scumbag lawyers but, in my experience, those people tend not to be particularly good advocates. The best way to lose credibility is to be caught in a lie. Bad lawyers blindly assume that everything a client says is the truth and never admit there are two sides to a story.

The best lawyers are able to take provable facts and tell a convincing narrative that meets the client's objectives. Sometimes it is a ***** of a job.

A good lawyer can also be a scumbag. Plenty have made giant piles of money doing things that most everyone would think was immoral. They were good at what they did but bad at the whole being a decent person thing.

Good to know so many in the paddock work solely for enjoyment and only do business with saints.

Little, Peerless Price, Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry. UT keeps cranking out the best.

Don’t forget Donte Stallworth!

The law in Nevada is that Ruggs has to serve a minimum two years and a max 20. I assume the lawyer’s job is really going to be getting him closer to the lower number. I like Ruggs and all from his Bama days, but if he doesn’t get 20 then what the hell would it take for a guy to get 20?

What if the girl he killed was drunk as well and pulled out in front of him. Having lived in and around Vegas for 20 years, most drivers at 3 in the AM have had a few.

If Ruggs was going the speed limit or even a little over I’d agree with you. But even if the victim was blackout drunk I’d still put 99% of the blame on Ruggs. 150 MPH!!!!
