The ability of lawyers to confound, confuse, and bedazzle the layman with their language has been the subject of anecdotes and hilarious comments. Lawyers indeed talk legalese because such is their nature. Only lawyers understand lawyer’s speak, and that is the secret of how they make money. You have to hire them to untangle the vague, incomprehensible, and perplexing entwining knot where you may find yourself enmeshed. They are the skilled champions who carry a man’s cause or burden. In the field of law the Attorney is like fish in the water, as much as the Doctor and the Priest in their own field.
Shakespeare in Hamlet wrote:
Why may not be this skull of the lawyer?
Where now be his quiddities, his quillets,
His cases, his tenures, and his tricks?
