I've recently encountered a client that believes lawyers can solve legal problems with little bit of legal research and some ingenuity. However, three years of law school and a couple of months of being a solo-practitioner have proved otherwise. Lawyers aren't miracle workers, we help our clients with their problems and find them solutions according to the applicable law. There are situations where a technicality found in the law may solve a client's problem, but those are few and far between. While writing this blog post, I can still hear my professor's saying, "you can choose your client, but you can't choose the facts of your case."
