Isn't it odd that when you really need a lawyer that you can't even get to one? For the past couple of years I've tried to get legal counsel on numerous occasions. First, my application to the union kept 'disappearing' - for months. Once in the union I spent several months trying to get legal counsel there - in vain. Due to a very busy secretary who demanded to know - not just in main points, but in full detail - what I wanted to talk with the lawyer about. In full detail? Isn't that priviledged information between the lawyer and the client?
Then I tried a civil rights specialist lawyer, because the above incidents themselves woke me up. Again, a very busy secretary hindered my access. Probably also part of her job. Busy lawyer and all. But what cannot be part of her job was, that she referred me to two different so-called lawyers - whose names I later checked. There were no such lawyers in the lawyer lists. Reversely checking the addresses, there were not even any kind of legal company there. Lastly, after a couple of years of trying to get access to a lawyer, I tried a free of charge legal counsel service - no help, too busy, not even a referral. Isn't it odd though, and isn't legal counsel a civil and human right? Just paradoxed on Constitution Day!
