Any lawyers here?
If so is life as exciting as John Grisham makes it out to be? If so I think I may change careers and become a lawyer

I think if we had any real lawyers here, our DRM flamewars would be much more short-lived

Oh, we have a few lawyers, but all of them go by the rule that they can't give legal advice out of their jurisdiction. And since MR is a global forum, they're always out of their jurisdiction!
Besides, the practice of law is made up of a lot of specialties. We have lawyers, but not necessarily ones who specialize in copyright. You will find that for example, divorce lawyers know divorce law but are as helpless as you or I when it comes to law relating to the IRS auditing you. |

According to one local law firm advertising here, pretty much everyone (except them) is helpless against (name of your local tax collector)...

I read The Firm last August.
I could (for purposes of reading the book) accept the book's main idea that the law firm was a front for the Mafia, but there was nothing believable about the protagonist. He was too perfect in every way. |
