- dmurray 3y agoSource for this? The ABA [0] gives a much more believable figure of 1.3 million "active lawyers", which is almost exactly 400 per 100k. So I suspect you are off by an order of magnitude, but perhaps you have a different way of counting lawyers.

- shiroiushi 3y agoMaybe the GP added an extra zero by accident, but 29 vs. 400 is still a huge difference, more than an order of magnitude.
