Many lawyers refer to it as a sort of law camp.

So that is part of the reason people discredit his legal background.
Also he apparently couldn't come up with a list of clients when asked, that he felt were going to potentially be affected by this attorney client privilege outside of Trump, for whom the fraud exemption was applied in this process
So it's all pretty abnormal and that is why people are suggesting that he hasn't done a lot of "lawyering things"
