Does an average court lawyer get more respect than a partner at a top law firm, even if earning much less than the partner?

Court advocates dont actually get that much respected.The public doesn't trust them.Thats doesn't mean Corp law Advocates are above them.on the concealment of income, you seem very upset that Corp lawyers can't conceal cash income which Court advocates can.

Like you told its till you hit 45, by 40 you can become a partner in a firm in which you will earn more than 30L + large number of clients and goodwill.

I mean among the general public. I just get the feeling that court advocates are more respected and people want to know them, cops are afraid of them, political parties court them etc. Even if you're not a big Senior Advocate. Even if you're an average High court advocate earning 30 lakhs a year (a par figure once you hit 45). Am I correct? Also, even if a court lawyer only earns 1 lakh a month he can charge in cash and conceal income, which is not possible for a law firm associate. There are so many court advocates charge in cash and give a discount if you pay in cash versus cheque.
