“Going to trial with a lawyer who considers your whole life-style a Crime in Progress is not a happy prospect”

Hunter S. Thompson

Simplified Meaning:

Finding yourself in court with a lawyer who thinks your way of living is wrong is not comforting. Imagine needing someone to defend you, but they believe everything about how you live is bad. It’s like asking a vegetarian to speak up for you in a meat lover’s debate; they simply don’t agree with your choices. For example, if you love skateboarding, and your lawyer thinks skateboarding is reckless and irresponsible, they might not put in the effort needed to defend you well. In real life, you’d want to work with someone who understands and respects you. Choose lawyers, friends, or partners who get who you are and see your value. This way, they will genuinely want to help you and will put their heart into supporting you.
