How to Become a Famous, Legendary, and Powerful Lawyer/Attorney? - Lasha Janibegashvili Answers:
It requires knowledge, continuous development, authority, the ability to use relevant combinations of laws to your advantage, competence, integrity, a good reputation, empathy, and prioritizing client interests.
For example, I'll tell you a story: I had a friend who was a lawyer involved in a criminal case under Article 126 prima. I connected the person who needed help with him. The lawyer, whom I knew, was my friend, and whom I thought would be competent, didn't show up for the substantive hearing because he had a cold. He had taken a large fee, and after he told me this, I cut off all professional ties with him and even deleted all information about him from my pages.
The man he was defending, who was innocent, is still on the run in Turkey and can't return to Georgia, having practically abandoned his business in Georgia. This is exactly what it means to disregard client interests, to betray someone who trusts you. You could even call it fraud.
Practical Experience:
This is a crucial factor. Actively participate in court proceedings. Friendship with famous and successful lawyers can also provide great motivation. You must constantly improve your qualifications.
It's essential to continuously deepen and enhance your knowledge. You must study precedents and practices as thoroughly as possible.
Charisma and oratory skills are essential. To develop these qualities, you must work hard on yourself.
You must be brave, persistent, determined, courageous, fearless, and willing to take risks. These qualities will make you a leader in your profession. It's also essential to be an uncompromising fighter against injustice. Put aside personal interests. To protect client interests, you must confront everyone and everything within the law. Don't shy away from pressure or danger. Defend ordinary, oppressed people, sometimes even without a fee, and confront the powerful and oppressors. Destroy them legally, expose their alleged crimes, and challenge those who hold opposing views to a discussion.
Confronting unjust and corrupt judges and prosecutors. In such cases, your best tool is publicizing the fight. Remember, the judge may make decisions in the courtroom, the prosecutor may exert influence during the investigation, but you will be the leader outside, with the people.
Dangers: If you are a brave, courageous, and fearless lawyer, if you confront the powerful of this world who have influence in the courts and government, they will stage all sorts of provocations against you, spread false stories about you on television. First, the Bar Association will stab you in the back.
The role of the Bar Association and the Disciplinary Board: If you are a sincere advocate and defender of ordinary people, have a high positive reputation, and have many followers (I have around 200,000 and my pages get an average of 4 million views per month), if you are more famous than many politicians, the Disciplinary Board of the Bar Association will be the first to stab you in the back. Through selective justice, your disciplinary cases will be reviewed by unworthy lawyers who are ready for anything, are unsuccessful, and have dirty souls and behaviors, whom the government has placed to control you. They will find fault with everything, shake your psychology, create cracks, and make you question yourself. Their actions will have a chilling effect.
After dealing with them, you won't be able to be bold, brave, and fearless anymore. I compare the Bar Association's Disciplinary Board to a nest of snakes; the lawyers who come out of there change.
You may even be attacked, threatened with death, and marginalized by the prosecutor's office.
For example, since I openly confronted the Bar Association through the Constitutional Court and exposed their dishonest actions since 2019, they have made four false and defamatory television stories about me. I proved my innocence through the Ethics Charter, but the stories are still not taken down. 12 criminal investigations have been formally launched against citizen Lasha Janibegashvili for illegal crimes, but the prosecutor's office is marginalizing me.
Alleged illegal actions of the Bar Association through the members of the Ethics Commission: When you become successful, well-known, and uncontrollable, the Bar Association, through the members of the Ethics Commission, who in some cases are not known for fairness, high qualifications, integrity, and a good reputation, will impose selective justice on you. They can initiate disciplinary proceedings for a comment on a Facebook post from three years ago, and no matter how much you complain, you won't be able to punish them.
The Prosecutor's Office of Georgia is being built in front of the Bar Association, which makes everything clear.
