Are his pants on fire? Likely a good lawyer then.

How can you telll the difference between a good defence lawyer and a bad one?

Are you posting this from jail?

If he wears a red and white striped club tie in a half-windsor knot, he's awful.

Donathan Montgomery Augustus Dickle, what did you DO?

• Win/loss ratio
• amount of cases settled vs gone to trial
• willingness to take on difficult cases/ability to win them
• word of mouth from former clients
• ability to listen properly to clients but also professionally call them on their bullshit when applicable
• how much and why prosecutors dislike them
• whether or not they're licensed to practice

IANAL* and it's in no particular order, but that should be a pretty good checklist afaik 🤷🏻

*the abbreviation of "I am not a lawyer" as well as the best Isaac Asimov porn parody never made.

What if they're not wearing a tie at all?

lol in another thread someone said I would ask this question next. So thought it would be funny to make them right.
