Whilst I understand the tenor of the article, I quite often use female, black and asian lawyers who are exceptional counsel to help unravel difficult matters to me, a white professional lawyer, and my white, male, female, transgender, straight, gay, black, yellow and pink clients.

If it's any consolation, a particular client I have presently who has real special needs is white.

Defendants do come in a variety of shades, and I have to say, I think labelling females and those of colour a bit daft, and incredibly patronising.
