What were they like before they became sleaze-ball lawyers?

Asked by Jeruba (55829points) August 4th, 2011

You knew them as kids, or as college classmates, or, perhaps most interesting, as law school students.

Now they’re ambulance chasers, personal injury lawyers pushing for outrageous settlements, cutthroat divorce attorneys who maximize everyone’s suffering, and all those others who give lawyers as a group an undeserved bad name.

What were they like before they entered their profession? Could you see early signs, or did something happen to them once they began their careers?
