Unfortunately, we’ve already done a Roundable about Favorite Lawyer Movies. I guess that means it’s time to look instead at some of the sleaziest, most incompetent, or even downright evil lawyers from movies and TV. You know,...

I had intended to write up a post on the subject for that day or Friday, but life intervened and I got busy with other things.
