Lawyers are bad everywhere but this story from Louisiana I wanted to pass along as a cautionary tale. 2 attorneys reportedly had given approximately $20,000 over 10 years to Federal Judge G. Thomas Porteous, Jr. under the idea of helping out a friend in need.
As lawyers know and law students will soon find out the legal community is very, very small and many of your friends may very well be counsel opposite or the judge ruling on your case. HOWEVER, when you loan/give/lend them money stories like this arise.
