How to modernize the legal industry

[Intax]

Wise post. I laughed when OP mentioned offering ‘transparency’. They do not profit from more transparency lol.

I can’t agree with this statement in that absoluteness. Yes, there are certain lawyers who are scared and therefore don’t want to share their knowledge with their clients and try to keep the information asymmetry up. I’ve also talked with some lawyers who didn’t want to be more efficient so they could charge more hours. Yes, these people exist but there are also enough lawyers that became primarily lawyers to help people. They work their a$$ off to get all the work done. There are also lawyers who sometimes work for free to just help people out or do more than is necessary and economically viable just to help their clients who are in a tough spot.

Now I think we just disagree on how many law firms are focused on helping their clients and how many are just in it for the money without caring about getting the best results for their clients (therefore trying to keep an information asymmetry up). Maybe our different experiences also come from the fact that I’m living in a civil law System and not a common law system and the lawyers in the US are different ^^.
