Fuck them all. The world would be a better place with fewer lawyers and more scientists.

Until the scientists dump 100 million barrels of oil into your backyard and destroy your livelihood. Then you'll think twice about needing someone to go to bat for you.

If EDF actually sued if he got banned (not likely) what kind of case would he have?

That would define a frivolous lawsuit.

To be fair, it is management failing to provide the safeguards in order to have a better bottom line...

I agree, that is why I'm changing my e-persona. On TOS, I was a lawyer; here, I figure I'm ready for a fresh start, so to you all, I shall henceforth be known as an architect. I would say some kind of scientist to make Shooter happy, but chemistry was never my thing.

I have to admit to being a lawyer, but does it help that I don't like other lawyers at all?

This. Also, I'm not sure what I do qualifies as practicing law.

Unfortunately, what I do supposedly does, but with a few exceptions, once I get away from work, I don't hang out with lawyers, because I already get enough of listening to a bunch of bastards talking about how wonderful they are and how they basically reinvent fire every day.

Have the degree but do not practice.

Working on my PhD in psychology in order to do jury selection and other aspects of trial consulting.

Have the J.D. and practiced for a little while...then traded it in for a badge and a gun.
