The US Economic Census indicates that attorneys median income is $165,000 a year it also indicates that the revenue per employee in law offices is $288,000. I read an auditors report that said court appointed attorneys make less than $10.00 an hour and that, as a result most inocent people would be better off if we didn’t have the right to an attorney. Also said that court appointed attorneys are an economicly disenfranchised group that need assistance. In high school I was taught that our criminal justice system was the best on earth. What is the truth? Are the people who are represented by court appointed attorneys getting real representation? Are the attorneys funded well enough to do their jobs? Do the attorneys make too much money? This is really an opinion poll. Please consider disclosing your status in your answer, ie. attorney or not attorney.
