Dear Mr. Schollmeyer, some time ago I found your book " indictments on behalf of justice " read. I would like you today to ask some questions. Helga King : taken from the blurb of your book, I want you to waste justice research. What can one has to understand by research findings and have worked in your book?
Mark Schollmeyer : Equity Research creates a change in perspective away from the written law towards just solution. There is therefore no longer the formal principle of a written law, but rather on the sense of justice of the people is the measure of the decisions. To this end we map this sense of justice of the people. The results will be better understood by the people, just because the result stems from the understanding of justice, not just the mere product of a legal process is.
the results I have worked in such a way in my book, I have chosen cases in which the understandings of justice differs very much from a legal life. My main goal is more transparency - the way a very important element of justice - in the legal processes to bring a whole. Unfortunately, people today no longer know what is being judged on them and why some things like this (unfair) is how it goes.
Helga King : Your protagonist is confronted with the realities as a young lawyer in a law firm. Is it primarily in most large law firms about the money?
Mark Schollmeyer : Law firms are starting from a certain Size businesses, whose primary aim is to return to profit. Therefore, the turnover of one of the key issues in the law firm and also a major goal of active lawyers. He also has substantial interest in a decision about a partnership, the goal of many lawyers.
Helga King : Can lawyers be more than lobbyists, and if so, what are the implications for such lawyers? Mark Schollmeyer : Lawyers often have the function to optimize the interests of the client to justice there is in most cases. At least which I have seen. Finally, one also speaks of "turn advocate" one. This shows very clearly that lawyers are often perceived as a tool to be turned on when you need them. Like a coffee machine or the machine level. Here, however, just a change in the . society instead recognize some people that this is so not function if you want a sustainable world
Helga King . What motivated you in your book details to the court show
Mark? . Schollmeyer : As I said, I will ensure transparency in our justice system - other than eg in the USA - transfers of any kind from a courtroom prohibited by law. People have therefore only the possibility to go there yourself or read the paper. Go in most cases not possible, after all, the rooms also limited capacity. Sorry, take the newspaper articles are often not really the important things, but focus on the scandal in history. Scandals carrying edition, once told me a media insider, so they are good. But this has to do in my eyes to do with justice, one of the highest goods must have a life of freedom. The people must be allowed to know, without limitation, in which Court happened. This can not be a closed event.
Helga King: It is a common practice that good young lawyers are being recruited by headhunters in law firms?
Mark Schollmeyer : most directly recruit away from campus. But then after a few years you need a headhunter. In Frankfurt there are only focused on this issue headhunter firm
Helga King . It Can not afford a lawyer, to be idealistic when he must care for his livelihood?
Mark Schollmeyer : That reminds me just a joke that describes the problem well: How does an idealistic lawyer a small fortune? When you come from a large (assets) had. But seriously, it is very hard to help the people and to get their money. The most lucrative seats are just distributed differently.
Helga King : Should young idealistic lawyers join together in networks to strengthen the justice back?
Helga King : When a lawyer is a caricature of himself?
Mark Schollmeyer : If he chooses seats in Claims instead of remaining objective and independent.
Helga King : If required to study law students have backed up the study of ethics seminars?
Mark Schollmeyer : They are indeed available, unfortunately, the interest in keeping borders. At least when you look at the reality.
Helga King : You ask in your book: "Greed has triumphed over justice worth the fight for good then at all, when the evil prevail so easily can?" (Quote: Mark Schollmeyer, p. 221-222) What are the results If the justice researcher Mark Schollmeyer?
Mark Schollmeyer : greed has created a big lead before the justice, but it is not yet dead That's good news. And as long as there are people on Earth, one should not cease to demand justice, or we give to civilization and drift into a world where the rule of the strongest despotism, greed and meanness makes acceptable. This should not be, so it is always worthwhile to stand up for justice.
Dear Mr. Schollmeyer, thank you very much for this enlightening interview.
Your Helga King
