The Enduring Role of Lawyers in Society
The article examines why legal professionals persist across regimes from revolutions to colonial America. It cites historical attempts to abolish lawyers, notes how the profession upholds the Rule of Law, and explains Shakespeare’s line as a compliment to lawyers as a barrier to tyranny. Will Bernard writes the piece as a public service feature for bar associations.
