A Lawyers worst nightmare may be coming true, they are being discarded by those they relied on for golf memberships, Timmy's braces, and that new BMW. To some Lawyers who specialise in making money off the misery of others when it comes to Family Law, must feel the hairs on the backs of their neck standing up in what can only be a Nightmare scenario in "The End of the World", as "Hell is finally freezing over!" With internet Wills and Real Estate and other legal "how to documents " available, will Lawyers really be needed at all, reserved only for criminal cases?
Oh the Humanity!

Canadian lawyers have become 'luxury goods', magazine warnsJanice Tibbetts, Canwest News ServicePublished: Monday, July 07, 2008
OTTAWA - Lawyers have to come to grips with the prospect that they are a "luxury good" that may no longer be needed in the country's courtrooms as more litigants represent themselves, warns a leading Canadian legal publication.
The National, the magazine of the Canadian Bar Association, makes the bold assertion in an editorial, entitled Life After Lawyers, published in the current edition.
The editorial focuses mainly on the growing number of people who are showing up in family courts to fight over their children and marriage breakdowns without hiring lawyers.
