Would you hire a lawyer who stutters?

There was a lawyer on TV being interviewed about soccer – because of the World cup – but he stuttered horribly.

I felt bad for him, on the one hand, but also impressed by the fact that this hadn’t stopped him from pursuing his studies and ultimately working as, of all things, a trial lawyer.

You know what I mean; it’s really based on communication, thespianism and communication. Not so easy if you stutter.

What do you think?

Could you get past the initial trepidation and stigma and hire the person as your lawyer?

Your kids’ lawyer?

A murder trial?
