ER doctors and public defenders both provide a vital public service that would be severely and fundamentally compromised if they discriminated between clients. Private lawyers are defined by their ability to discriminate between clients and I expect them to use that discretion wisely and well.

Yeah they are discerning about which clients will make them the most money / exposure / improve their brand.

Well, some are disputing whether this happens in the first place.

The question is: "Should lawyers get a special exemption from social opprobrium due to their profession?"

To which I say: "Only public defenders." (and some other stuff related to that)

edits- human communication is hard!

What about people doing pro bono work?
