In fact, there are very few good lawyers left in our time. My friend's father had a problem that needed a good lawyer. He got sick at work with mesothelioma and is currently undergoing a severe course of treatment. He was looking for a lawyer for a very long time, until he came across an excellent asbestos attorney who was able to help him with the problem. They sued the employer for a very long time, but still managed to win the court. The lawyer was able to turn the situation in their favor and this played a key role. They received compensation, but unfortunately their health is compromised. I think it is very important that young lawyers are qualified very well. After all, sometimes it can save someone's life

The clue lies on billable hours, you have to know the meaning of it, which means subject to fee. It's like giving fees to your tutor for coaching you to score good on GRE. Similarly law firms are like tutors, they tutor or teach young attorney, but the teaching hours also gets counted and attorney have to pay a fee to the law- billable hours. Therefore, out of the 5 , emphasis on billable hours and corresponding fees given to the law firms narrows it's opportunity as a career.
