sweet gig that pays >60K entry, downside is the ungrateful clients but these get reshuffled into the system with rotating attorneys

i did criminal defense clinic in law school, had ~30 hood black clients, all extremely respectful.

the main trick was just squinting thoughtfully into the distance and stroking my chin while listening to them, not flame

my girlfriend in the clinic told me her clients accused her of not listening to them and they all treated her with contempt lmao

PD jobs are also stepping stones to more lucrative private practices and judgeships. my friends who did it seem happy and 1 of them became a local judge at age 35. underrated job imo

i pd'd at municipal level and it was pro-bono service offered to the town. it was fine. got a handful of trials in, was in court in front of a judge and dealing with people so much it felt like a crash course. was very valuable experience i appreciate with some time away from it.

Because most XO-lawyers have no trial or criminal law experience.

They very thought of handling something so unprestigious as shitlaw criminal defense makes them recoil in disgust.

It's actually a sweet gig if your jurisdication pays well.

Imagine getting paid $80k, plus bennies to spend all day thinking of different ways to fuck over the Gov't.

If you lose a case, so what! You've got another 10 new clients waiting for you at arraignment. If you win, then you are a fucking hero b/c ProsBros NEVER EXPECT to lose.

Lmao Cr. There was a victim in a dv case last week who was complaining to the judge about how the das office was sending her intimidating text messages and harassing her to convince her to testify. This was on the morning of trial. The da looked like he was going to piss his pants or cry, was loling

It's even more fun as private counsel. I've told prosbros numerous times "Look man, I have *way* more time than you. Let's just call this [felony whatever] a [misdemeanor whatever] and be done with it." It's worked every time.

I'm pretty sure the DA actually did text her with some veiled threat of prosecuting for "giving a false statement" or "contempt of court" if they didn't come to court.

DV cases are always a shitshow. You can always spot a newbie prosecutor by how tough they act on a DV case.

lol jfc this is so moronic. You get paid shit to have too many cases. Your clients don’t trust you because you’re the government lawyer. Prosecutors tolerate you because your job is to make it easier by getting your clients to plead guilty.
