UNSCRUPULOUS LAWYERS

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

Editor,

Thank you for according me the opportunity to share my views (and in no doubt the views of many others) in your widely circulated newspaper.
How long shall we, the unsuspecting public continue to suffer in the hands of unscrupulous lawyers, who, almost unabated, swindle us of our hard earned money?


How long shall government allow these loose cannons masquerading as ‘Learned Friends’ to continue to reap havoc in the lives of the law abiding citizens on this land.
Many a client has cried but to no avail. When you go to the authorities to report your grievance, you’re told to go to the Law Society, who, always seek to protect one of their own. Why can’t there be a separate and independent entity where people can go and report such matters.


These ‘white collar criminals’ have got no sense of responsibility nor do they have any credibility. None of them are involved in any form of social responsibility and I have it in authority that the vast majority of them do not even pay their taxes. Some of them have the audacity to charge their clients VAT and yet they do not remit a single cent to the Swaziland Revenue Authority (SRA).


They steal both from government and the public to buy their fancy cars, which they use to pick up young naive girls and have extra-marital affairs, which compounds the scourge of HIV.


You get a statement from this lot and you find that you’ve been charged excess of what you are claiming from the other party. They forget a simple principle that the service rendered is cause and the pay envelope is effect, and that the latter varies in proportion to the efficiency of the former. 
This lot claim to be educated yet the vast majority of them do not know the meaning of the word.

The word educate has its roots in the Latin word ‘Educo’ (a language, which this lot love to speak) which means to educe, to draw out, to develop from within.


The most educated man is the one whose mind has been most highly developed, a virtue which a majority of these ‘white collar criminals’ lack.
They forget that no achievement can be permanent unless it is built upon truth and justice.


We plead with His Majesty’s Government in particular the Honourable Minister of Justice, Sibusiso Shongwe, to save us from this bad element of our society.


I thank you

K.M
