Celebrity Lawyers
Lawyers are trained to not seek the limelight. Justice for our client is our beacon, not our round, vain faces.
But some very-well lawyers didn't earn a spot in the Law's Hall of Fame even though many of them are vastly better-known to the general public then their Hall of Fame brethren. The Himalaya they climbed had no Lady Justice to guide their way.
