I think someone who accidentally hires a shitty lawyer should get a do-over. What's wrong with that?

    So your solution is that he doesn't get a second chance?

    Why is it my responsibility to remake the legal system? What is you plan to make it more just?

    Giving him a second chance makes it more just!

    And he can sue his bad lawyer for bad representation too, since this is legal malpractice.

    But you seem to want... what? That he doesn't get a second chance? He's just fucked?

    I don’t want anything. That’s a strange assertion.

    The fact is that he has lost a ton of money here and the judges will be prejudiced against him. This is all the fault of the lawyer but the case will continue. Whatever damages he can get later he’s still fucked now and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

    And he can sue his own lawyer for bad representation. That's allowed.

    Yet you seem to be against this, but are offering literally no alternative. Yeah, hiring a lawyer costs money. You know what costs more money? Being legally liable because your lawyer was disbarred for malpractice and you couldn't replace him!
