Thank God.. That all judges were once lawyers

Perfections cannot be expected from lawyer. In India job of a lawyer involves multiple tasks.

A system of Para-Legals to support lawyers is yet not systematically developed in India. More and more para Legals needs to be given licenses to assist lawyers.

Lawyer's job is basically 1) To collect information from his client about his case 2) To collect evidences to support claim of client 3) And to present these evidences in logical form before court.

But in between these three steps there are a thousand procedural steps to be carried out.

One mistake in one of these thousand steps, can upturn case of a lawyer. Even burden of serving process of summons on other side is placed on a lawyer!

The perfection in lawyer's task is nearly impossible.

When judge opens case of lawyer, he can notice several lapses. But he ignores these lapses and focuses on doing Justice to parties.

Because, the Judge too was once a lawyer. He has experiences of difficulties which lay in path of a lawyer.
