Re: Remember SCO?
You can think about Boies' clients what you want, but when you look at the SCO case, how long he managed to keep IBM and Novell in court with not a shred of evidence, he surely deserved his fees, and he surely is a lawyer that you would prefer on your side.
As mentioned, he also won Perry vs. Schwarzenegger, making a ban on gay marriage in California unconstitutional.
Lawyers are not supposed to make any moral judgements on their clients, they are supposed to fight for their clients' side.
