    <title>Massachusetts Bar Association: Blood-sucking leeches or honorable public servants?</title>
    <link>http://www.universalhub.com/node/893</link>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;David makes the &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/ethicalesq/stories/storyReader$3744&quot;&gt;case for leeches&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;... I&#039;ve come to the conclusion that members of the Massachusetts bar, when acting in groups and given the opportunity, far too often put the interests of lawyers above those of clients and the public.  And, they do it with arguments so petulant or specious that even their legitimate concerns seem suspect.  [If I had to name the archetypal Bay State law firm, it would be &quot;&lt;em&gt;Wein, Karp &amp;amp; Mone, Unlimited&lt;/em&gt;&quot;.] ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Robert makes the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.legaline.com/2005/04/in-defense-of-mass-bar.html&quot;&gt;case for honor&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;... To me, membership in the MBA is a cornerstone of my public service. It is a guild to which I am proud to belong, because the overriding interest of its members is the protection of the public&#039;s legal rights. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
