Legally speaking

Lawyers, it must be said, do not have the best reputation as a profession. To some the concept of a Christian lawyer may appear an oxymoron. There are a large number of Christians who practise law (and I would like to plug here the sterling work of the Lawyers Christian Fellowship), but fewer who undertake Christian legal work.

Mark Jones

I have now been a solicitor in private practice for eight years. During that time I have represented many global corporations and households - and thoroughly enjoyed doing so. I would have described myself at the time as a lawyer who happened to be a Christian. I certainly worked hard, as if working to please God rather than men, but my actual service was directed towards the firm that employed me and the clients who wished to use my services.
