Speak to the insiders - is the new rule of law in the U.S.

I've so far spoken to several attorneys disciplined for misconduct in different states of the United States.

All of their cases, as they related them, were conducted with gross procedural and substantive violations and obviously with a view "to get" them.

Attorneys agreed that the rule of law does not work in the U.S. and that you need to be a local connected counsel to get positive results from the court.

They asked me if I want to consider hiring or consulting with an "insider" attorney who worked previously for the disciplinary committees and is connected to the "disciplinary industry", so that he would be able to "put a word" for me and so that my discipline (if any) would be more lenient in the case which is based on 3 sanctions by a judge after I sued him (and the judge currently left the bench in haste, I understand, forestalling being taken off the bench).

My answer is - NO.

I have adult children.  I raised them not to bend to a lie and not to live a lie.  I owe it to them and to their future not to bend to a lie and not to live a lie myself.

If we all understand that the court system turned into a criminal enterprise where the only way to obtain benefits for yourself and your clients is to be "connected" to the court - we need to fight it, not to bend to it, accept it and "play by the rules", by criminal rules.

I won't bend to criminals and fraudsters.  

And I believe that eventually, not necessarily during my lifetime, justice will prevail.
