dump truck lawyer

dump-truck lawyer. Slang. A public defender who spends little time or effort and exhibits little skill mounting a defense on behalf of an indigent defendant. • This derogatory term arises from criminal defendants’ common perception (typically a misperception) that public defenders prefer to dump cases by making plea bargains rather than spend time preparing for trial.
