Keep Bailing

In the course of our work, we have occasion to deal with attorneys. One might assume that we’re primarily dealing with criminal defense attorneys, but we also hear from other attorneys. Seems that when someone is in trouble and they don’t know what to do, they contact their personal attorney. Even if the attorney doesn’t do criminal work, they probably can give a good referral. When that attorney referral  come to us, as professional, experienced bail agents, we take care to maintain the attorney’s trust.

I provide this as background, because recently, someone painted me an interesting picture of how they view criminal defense attorneys:

“Criminal defense attorneys: My thoughts are that this demographic is pretty egocentric and that they like to talk about their big cars, smoke large cigars, etc… and when amongst the same demographics, they all compare their winnings and monetary attributions as well as their toys, i.e. I drive an S500, what about you, I drive a MaClaren. etc…“

Wow, I never pictured an attorney like that. When I think attorney, I think: educated, intelligent, hardworking, discerning.

What do you think?
