 A mistake that most people make is that they see defense attorney's jobs as to get their client off. That's not true. Their job is to see to it that the client gets the best defense possible.
There are a few, naive, young lawyers out there who still try that.
That being said, the sleazy ones who specialize in getting the criminals a walk are the ones we should be mad at.
