Especially because lawyers will not, and cannot, guarantee that
their opinion will prevail in court. Sound legal advice will ensure
that you're not labouring under a lot of common misconceptions,
nothing more. As two of my uncles (who in their working days were
lawyers of some repute) were wont to say: "It looks like you might
have a case, you should test it in court...". They were remarkably
unanimous on this one.

Take care,
