I can see how accountants and sales can be bad, but how exactly do lawyers fuck up? Not saying they don't, just asking how it plays out.

They only bring in the lawyers when something is truly fucked, like the Board taking control from administration. They usually take over when the time has come to investigate fraud, dismantle or otherwise heavily restructure the company.

Oh but then the lawyers are like white blood cells? They are good? Lawyers are friends? (Unless you're a black hat/criminal I guess)

The lawyers are there to safely burn everything to the ground, because if they have been brought in everything is already fucked beyond any hope of repair.
