CA: "it's like ridiculous"

I find this profile of a relentlessly self-promoting criminal defense lawyer, 3 1/2 years out of school, to be less inspiring than irritating, but maybe that's just because I'm evil. From the LA Times:

A Law Unto Herself - The criminal defense attorney is star-struck, young and unorthodox. But don't be fooled. She's also Ivy League, savvy and successful.

Like actress Reese Witherspoon's character in the movie "Legally Blonde" — a rich, ditsy Beverly Hills blond who goes to Harvard Law School — (Allison) Margolin, 28, is the kind of lawyer who might be easy to dismiss...

"I plan to make a lot of money," she said matter-of-factly.

You need an antidote to Miss Thing? Compare and contrast with Blonde Justice, or any of the other women in criminal defense whose blogs are linked along the right side of this screen.
