Sob attorney story incoming...
Self employed criminal defense. The majority of my business is court appointed cases. At least 80% of the cases (40,000 annually) in this county are court appointed, which leaves about 8,000 cases that are hired out. That's not a lot of meat on the bone for the number of attorneys here, so most people take court appointed cases.
The problem? Bexar (that's bear) County, San Antonio, has some of the lowest court appointed fees in the state and country. But hey, the County actually came up with $1 million for indigent representation for illegals in deportation cases. So, county tax payer money for federal proceedings. Sort of wrong but what do I know...
