Here are some questions that you could ask that are similar to what you are asking, yet phrased with more respect:
Why do you think some people have a negative image of lawyers, and what do you think should be done to correct the problem?
In order to correct the image problem that lawyers have, do you think the regulation of lawyers should be done by the legislature, or that lawyers should regulate themselves through a bar organization?
What do you think about billing clients on an hourly basis ($300 per hour, for example) versus billing them a contingent fee that takes up to 33% or 40% of whatever is recovered? Do you think lawyers should charge a flat fee for services instead ($5000 per personal injury case, for example) instead of on an hourly or contingency basis?
Do you think the negative image that lawyers sometimes have is a result of those bad commercials we see on t.v.? If so, do you think there should be stricter standards on these commercials?

And by using regulation, the criminal expert and you will desire to respond to the questions (interrogatories) or the criminal expert has to merchandise to them as being unrelated to the subject concerns in touch.

Ask them about "what unconstitutional law means" Ask "how an unconstitutional law can be revoked, removed."
For my understanding is that any law that is in contradiction of our Constitution is unlawful and cannot be upheld in court. And at the same time it is being done alot these days.

Actually, contrary to common belief, attorneys aren't soulless or moneygrubbing at all. Most of them are quite selfless and giving individuals. How about asking them what they'd change about something, or HOW you, as a student, can change something? I think that's a much better way of approaching things.

What if you knew your defendent is guilty?
