If law firms are losing money they are reaping what they have sown. <br /><br />Any lawyer who blames people like you for their reputations being in the gutter are immature indeed. Lawyers are to blame, and the Law Society of Scotland, for protecting people who as you said Peter, would be in jail in any other sphere of life.
