It's Impossible For Law Firms to be Totally Apolitical - Law.com International

Imagine a world where law firms were purposely political. A world in which some always advised on behalf of certain governments and not others. Where lawyers would choose to join a Democrat or a Republican firm. Where it was rare to have any major legal institution defend oligarchs, oil giants and tobacco companies from claims of any kind.

Such a world would frequently see injustice occur, whether through lack of access to decent legal advice or through a disproportionate focus on a political stance rather than the facts and merits of a particular case.
