The
reasons of the antipathy I feel toward lawyers or
Why I hate the lawyers.
The reason of the antipathy I feel toward the legal
folk...
Well, I wonder what are the roots of this feeling…
For many examples (mainly in fiction books) prove
that these could be rather noble people. Either Parry Mason (Gardner’s
character), or others - Sundra Bullock’s or Barbarah Streisand’s
characters - they all are so attractive, so nice... Unfortunately all
their stories could be considered here as fairytales only.
I can discuss here my case only. Well, the accident
happened when I was walking along sidewalk inside our district. The
driver had run away after this, it could be easily supposed he would,
nobody had seen him (it was at night). However the car, broken by me and
my friend, left there, it was severely damaged (The only tiny
satisfaction I have to limit myself to). My friend died, I was
transported to clinic, hardly alive. While I was surviving in the
clinic, a kind of trial had been carried out - here I have to say
nothing more than «just a kind of», because despite the car was there no
finger prints were even taken.
The next morning the official car owner had
submitted the run-away application to policy bodies. So according to the
presumption of innocence he was clear, wasn’t he? The car was stolen at
night, he was desperately looking for it all around - though I am not
sure anybody except for his wife could confirm it.
However, anyway the trial was stopped. Certainly
there was no court - there was no defendant.
But nobody, none of recommended lawyer told us that
it would work for criminal court only. However that would be more than
enough for civil court, that would oblige the car master to cover all
expenses - and they were huge. I say nothing about 5 years of my life,
of life my parents, my friend’s life after all, breakdown of anything
good in our lives - anyway even if the guilty one were imprisoned -
nothing were brought back, But I wander why NONE of these lawyers had
told that the data we have would be enough for civil case? Well, to
charge him with nice amount of currency would be much better than just
to bring him to prison.
Now, when I know it for sure, it is too late. I can
do nothing alone, my parents are now too tired to take this bother over
them, and soon we are expected to move to Israel, there is no time left.
Well, I forced to be real forgiving Christian. But
what else could be done?
