This story is a simple example of why you should never trust a lawyer.
A butcher saw a lawyer passing by his shop one day, and asked him, “What would you do if a dog came in and stole your meat?”
The lawyer replied, “Well, I would make the owner pay for it of course”.
The butcher said, “If that is so, now you owe me $15 because your dog has been coming into my butcher’s shop and stealing meat”.
The Lawyer replied, “Very well, just deduct the $15 from the $25 you owe me for the advice. I will collect the remaining $10 the next time I pass by.
