As of right now to my knowledge lawyers do shit. However, my suggestion is that you can click E on a lawyer and pay then to reduce you crime. For example X has 2500 crime, X does not want to go to jail, X consults Y and pays Y to reduce him crime to 0. My suggestion is that for every point of crime you want to reduce it will cost you 3$, so for example if you had 3000 crime and wanted to reduce it, you would have to pay a lawyer 9000 to get it to 0. Thats my suggestion feel free to tweak it.

but a lawyer could only get a certain % of the money because a lawyer could be someone's friend and just recycle the money and abuse it.

As much as i like the idea Light. That would be abused mere seconds after being impliemted.

The lawyer already does this lol

But yeah Mewn was right about the fact a the Lawyer should only really get a percentage of the money, but the money paid should also be higher. As it is, we already have people who RDM like there's no tomorrow, but they just bring a lawyer along. And given the fact that the money doesn't even need to be on your person to pay them...
