My experience of solicitors at the mo. is that they are making work for themselves by abusing the legal system by maximising legal obscurantism.  One firm is charging several million for work done on a file which led to damages of less than that.

If you want to reduce the total cost of the medical system, you will have to socialise it, but as it stands our private system is damaging the competitiveness of the rest of the economy by creating huge costs for all that have to be reflected in wages and the cost of doing business.

That would be business as usual for corporate lawyers - and many other kinds of lawyers too.

When you're being paid a few hundred an hour for playing with your pencils and designing incomprehensible sentences, there's no particular incentive to be clear, concise and straightforward.
