Working for an architect over 40 years ago I had my first real exposure to law. A fellow architect and I argued a position in a deposition to which the lawyer replied "why don't you practice architecture and let me practice law". We thought that was pretty funny as we discussed what "practicing law" might entail in a situation where said lawyer did not understand the difference between bricks and wood. I now have to laugh at the phrase "academic law" as illustrated by this dude who also is unable to separate bricks from wood. I have a solution - separate the lawyer from his license and let the market decide his value. (I would move government licensing of everything to the desks if their insurer's actuaries.)

Moving to insurance instead of licensing is honestly a fantastic idea all around. I'm surprised we don't see more of it.

That's the approach Prospera is taking. We'll see how it plays out

Didn't you answer you own question? It's a good idea, so obviously it faces an uphill battle.
