悪あく徳とく弁べん護ご士し

noun

unscrupulous lawyer; shyster; crooked lawyer

Pejorative term for a lawyer who acts unethically, often for personal gain. 'Shyster' and 'pettifogger' are dated or rare in modern English; 'unscrupulous lawyer' is the most neutral equivalent.

• あの悪あく徳とく弁べん護ご士しは依い頼らい人にんから法ほう外がいな報ほう酬しゅうを要よう求きゅうした。

  That unscrupulous lawyer demanded an exorbitant fee from the client.

• 悪あく徳とく弁べん護ご士しに騙だまされて、多た額がくの金かねを失うしなった。

  I was deceived by a crooked lawyer and lost a large sum of money.
