   My experience with lawyers is that if you need a legal document, they often have templates ready to go and will take 10 seconds to find & replace your company name into the document. I know this because they often don’t proofread it afterwards. They then charge you $1000 for that 10 seconds of work. Given that I have felt ripped off by many lawyers, I’m totally fine with that industry getting disrupted.

      Lawyer jokes are on point and on brand for a reason.

      They grift about as hard as tech workers did pre-2022. Relying on the fact that no one can easily audit their work to justify their one hour of actually work despite making easily 300K+ a year.

      Please kill their golden goose. Most lawyers are actively harmful to society.

         On the other hand, I'm horrified at the thought of zero marginal cost legal work given the strain of the current workload on courts.
