I am a young lawyer, but in my practice, it seems that many lawyers are intolerant and willing to amplify past transgressions by members of the bar even though they occurred a long time ago. What is happening to the profession of law?

Unfortunately, the legal profession to some extent mirrors modern society. Modern society has become very intolerant in recent years. Ask anyone who has ever had a criminal conviction and then changed and reformed how they are treated when they attempt to get a job.
