Legal Hypochondriacs
Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in General with No Comments
Today I had breakfast with a lawyer friend of mine and during the conversation he started speaking about people who, as described sounded like legal hypochondriacs. When I asked him if that´s what how it felt to deal with these type of clients he agreed. So what is a legal hypochondriac? If a hypochondriac is a person who wrongly believes that he/she is very sick and may die, a legal hypochondriac is a person who frequently believes that he/she committed a serious crime and may go to jail.

Nowadays, everyone seems to have a little of a “Legal Hypochondriac” inside. This is not only imposed by media and general awareness (exageration) via Hollywood films, etc, but also auto-imposed by individuals something like a previous state to becoming a “Legal Hypochondriac” (i.e we fear we are doing something wrong even before conceiving the idea of doing it!),
What a nonsese! Maybe you could find a term to define this state of mind Martin.
All the best,
