I now see why they call it "practicing" law.

Like "medical practice". I think of that when someone 85 years old is having knee surgery

My wife had her knee replaced and a year later broke her hip a year later. Today, you would never know she had a problem. She is 82 years old today does all the house work, has a flower and vegetable garden that she works on with no helpl
It all depends on the persons health and attitude. Thee is a guy in our Oliver club had a new replacement at age 91. Today he walks better than before the surgery.

One thing I forgot to say about doctors and lawyers. In 40 years I have fired at least a dozen lawyers and doctors. If I am not satisfied with them, I tell them they are like hired help and now you are through. Sometimes it has degenerated into a shouting mach. There are always other guys you can interview and hire. Tell them up front what you expect. If they are good, you will not have a problem.

Sounds like someone is hard to get along with and never satisfied. There's some lucky doctors and lawyers out there.

I was cruising some of the government health and safety sites and noticed the numbers for US yearly gun deaths vs malpractice deaths. Seems you're about 6 times more likely to die from doctors than from guns. Seems you're safer in a gang controlled part of town than in a doctor's office.

Not at all. IMO no one is indispensable. Ive seen some Dr's and att, do some really stupid, sometimes criminal things and they not only don't get "fired", they get protected. That's not the way things are supposed to work.

Very hard for some of these "professionals" to be told that they ADVISE, the client DECIDES.
