Information overload: Google University

Technology allows too much information to be downloaded on the Internet, people tend to blindly trust this information 100%. This leads to developing incomplete wrong beliefs on the subject matter, they have no understanding about. Consequently, the meeting with the lawyer is rather interesting - armed with incomplete knowledge, the client is in conflict with the advice of the lawyer ( law graduate versus Google graduate). They approach the lawyer with mistaken ideas and wrong questions.

Litigation is a complex legal process which if unguided may become demoralising and the consequences may be serious. The absence of background information about the client’s history and circumstances leads to a huge possibility of inaccuracy. However convenient it may sound that any question is answered by Google in seconds, the solutions may not be accurate, reliable or relevant to your situation, it’s gravity and complexity. Each situation is unique and needs an expert legal hand to deal with it. Your information overload from Google University can never be a substitute for a legal expert. Stay aligned with your lawyer’s advice. Trust him fully for his skills and expertise.
