He shouldn't have bothered.

Once anybody finds out about his background, no one will want to hire him to represent them.

You want someone to win the case for you in 1 try. Or at least succeed to the ensuing appeal.

You don't have the luxury to lose so many times with a client. Who wants to be represented by a slow learner anyway? Lawyers have to quick on the uptake. Supposed to yell objection but didn't cos still processing? Habis...

Yeah. But imagine that kind of persistence at the enforcers side. You lawyers will cirit soon.

I doubt it. Persistence is not an uncommon trait among lawyers.

Its like this - I can play the piano, but only cos of persistent practice. Something I realized quite quickly was that I have no actual talent for it. Regardless, I kept it up anyway and am able to pass exams and play competently. But no matter how much I practice, I'll never actually be as good as someone with actual talent and isn't a lazy bum as to not practice at all. I will never be a Yiruma. Heck, I will never qualify to perform for money in any sense. I know my limitations, and I was not even a 'slow learner' on the piano as in I didn't fail multiple piano exams when I was younger. But this is all OK. I play the piano for personal enjoyment. I don't make a career out of it.

Well this guy is trying to make a career out of something he doesn't appear to be good at, and is just persistent at. Good luck to him I guess, but until he actually proves himself, I will be remember his name as a lawyer to avoid and will never even give a chance to. Is the bias unfair? I don't think so...I have to pay good money for a lawyer so I have expectations and I don't think he will be able to meet them.

Its not like anyone would pay to hear me play the piano, why would I pay to hire him as a lawyer?

You tell me a doctor has failed multiple times before passing his exams, I am also not inclined to give them a chance. WTF? Its my life you're talking about.

Not everyone need to be Karpal or Shafie. There a whole loads of sections that nade up a law teams. Also chill out and get a life dude. Not nice to the body when it's full of negativity.

Its being realistic dude. Actual work isn't like studying. You don't get to fail multiple times. Fail even once and you lose a client or a job.
