Actually
Lawyers, as officers fo the court, are required to report incompetent, fraudulent, crooked of dodgy fellow lawyers. They might have pride intheir profession, but I have known them to blow the whistle, somethimes descreetly, but never-the-less. OTOH I have seen IT colleagures closing ranks around a useless and dangerously-inept IT mate because simply went all dog-pack when one of them was threatened.
