after watching on NDTV, the famous lawyers have used their brains in making money than giving justice
Answers:
When 24 years back I joined this profession both these lawyers were in the profession %26 were quite senior at that time. They have earned a lot of reputation %26 money from the profession but I can't understand why they indulged in such a petty affair now in this case. Although indulgence of lawyers in such corruption matter is not a new thing happening for the first time, it is there in %26 it involves not only few lawyers but even few judicial officials. At least now these black sheep鈥檚 are being exposed in public. Hope the bar council of Delhi, the High Court of Delhi %26 the Supreme Court of India will take necessary action against them so that such a corrupt practice may not repeat again.
i can believe that
They expect and take training to take the position of justice.
On the other hand, mediators also ensure that the courts do not get clogged up with cases that can be solved easily through negotiation. Most mediators are appointed by both sides prior to any dispute, just in case one should arise at a later date. The object being that the single mediator is far cheaper than employing two seperate legal teams and going to court
Lawyers make money by dragging out cases and filing unnecessary applications which are not getting any results other than lining their pockets at the gullible clients expense. Another racket is to charge "per date" irrespective whether they take adjournment or conduct argument. Needless to say, they mostly prefer adjournment. Most lawyers read their briefs on the morning that the matter is listed, usually perfunctorily in the courtroom while they wait their turn. Is it any wonder how ill prepared they are ? They do not provide any kind of service commensurate with the astronomical fees they extract from their clients. Disgusting bunch. Not all but most, at least in Mumbai.
Lawyers sometimes mediate between parties and settle issues.It is not wrong.
The amount of pending cases,the time taken to get a judgement,and further appeals in higher courts makes people
pauper and bitter rivals.
Instead a mediation can give mental peace,early settlement of issues with less cost and a give and take mid way gain for both the parties.
So such services are to be welcomed and appreciated
You see there are number of sincere and devoted advocates still existing in our country not caring for money doing efforts to safeguard the interests of their clients. I think they are much better than some of the politicians.
Of course it happens.
Since I don't live in India, I can only speak about here in the U.S.A.
Anyone remember the guy right who replaced Doug Lewelyn on the People's Court? It was Harvey Levin. He now is a frequent guest on various news programs as a legal consultant. He also has his own show on Court TV.
As far as general consultants, just look at Dr. Phil. He was a consultant to Oprah Winfrey during her Texas beef legal fiasco.
do u know the story of monkey judge %26 two fighting cats ?
In 1970, when I joined law college, everybody advised me that it is an overcrowded profession. In 2001, when I enrolled in the BAR, I was told again the same. In 2007 too, I find practically the same position. Lawyers at NDMC premises in Parliament street, charged 50 paise for preparing an affidavit. Today, I find several doing the same job in Bangalore civil court complex for Rs.10/-. there are lawyers in Chennai, calcutta, bombay and delhi, who charge 5000 to 20000 rupees just to process a file and state whether a case can be made out and whether he would do so. even a negative answer forfeits the amount. there are lawyers at these very places, struggling to make Rs.100 a day, Job elimination, all round in the economy and polity, for a decade and a half, have reduced lawyers too to penury while some mint money, especially those practising criminal law. A much acclaimed, top leftist, occupying prestigious position, as a lawyer refused to take up the case of striking Connaught Place hotel workers, stating that they can not afford him charging Rs.10000 per hour of appearance in the seventies. so much for ideology.
Mediation is an accepted way of resolution of disputes, in the form of Lok Adalats and Arbitration. Sometimes, exasperated by the unavoidable delays in courts, litigants force the lawyers for compromise, much to the lawyer's chagrin and reluctance. Nonetheless, there is some truth in what you say, as you have yourself qualified your question to "some".
