Sure. There was a lawyer who was supposed to be handling a property case. Instead of protecting the client's rights, the lawyer made a deal with the opposing side without the client's full consent.

A malpractice 'lawyer horror story' involved a lawyer who charged exorbitant fees upfront for a business litigation case. However, the lawyer then did very little work on the case.

Well, there's a story about a lawyer who was cross - examining a witness. He asked the witness if they had ever lied before. The witness said 'yes'. Then the lawyer triumphantly said 'Well, how can we believe you now?' And the witness calmly replied 'Because I'm under oath now, just like you should be when you practice law!' It was really funny how the tables were turned on the lawyer.
Sure. There was a lawyer who was so absent - minded. Once in court, he started arguing his opponent's point by mistake. It took him a while to realize his blunder, and everyone in the courtroom had a good laugh.
