The practicing lawyer, however, is generally every bit as good a doctor as a practicing doctor.  The practicing lawyer who is also an MD generally has kept up in studies, and techniques, and is almost as good, if not as good, a GP as the practicing Dr.  IF the lawyer wanted to docter, she easily could step right in.I'll say a two-level multiclass penalty probably just about covers it.  Just like the MT.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
