It's what people do to people when they are still alive that can be tougher to wrap your head around.
For me it's the cases where people should know better. You take a 19 year old kid who grew up in the ghetto or the trailer park getting arrested for murder, robbery or drugs. In almost all of those cases, the client is largely a product of his environment. The crimes may be horrible, but you can rationalize why they occurred.
Then I would do Family Court cases where the wife is falsely accusing the husband of molestation to get more child support or leverage for a better property settlement. Or the husband who insists you ask a sobbing wife in a deposition if her 2nd term miscarriage was actually an abortion, knowing that it wasn't. You can't rationalize that kind of evil. I couldn't get that shite out of my head.

Yeah, that's why I represent the people in your first paragraph but not your second...
Closest I've ever come to practicing family law is standing in on a few non-support matters. I'll take my murder clients any day over that shite.

I don't know how people do family and criminal work. Stresses me out just thinking about it.
