> The attorney is not there to figure out the 1000s of different ways for you not to get hurt, when you present them with a bogus response. They are, because they are a partner with you in law. Part of their job is working with you and looking out for your best interests. > Because verifying the 1000s of ways for you not to get hurt is often a waste of time which will cost you time and money itself. That verification is what you are shortcutting but also not what you are after. You want their experience to be able to say whether or not a path is good. The fact is, there's no 1 right way to do things and what you really want is "is this reasonable". > Most clients want to have a reasonable chance of success? Most clients want to pay the least amount of money possible, including legal fees (In civil cases). "Success" isn't really measurable beyond "will this bankrupt me". There's also not a lot of guarantees that this motion or that motion will ultimately drive down the cost of the case. There are literally thousands of motions that get field especially when talking about corporate lawsuits.
