She is a lawyer. Her highest professional responsibility is to her clients. I don't consider a great lawyer who defends a murderer to have the same morals as the murderer, and without quality representation, justice can't be done.

I have met her on many occasions and she has always been competent and helpful.

Apologies for nitpicking, but actually as a lawyer her highest responsibility is to the court. Secondary to that is her obligation to her client. The reason for this should be self-evident.
