Pulling out the "I'm a mouthpiece" card is as bad as talking down to a woman over mechanical issues, IMO. Both stupid power plays that have nothing to do with the issue and in fact, I think the "I'm a lawyer" card is worse and there is an implied threat there the way you stated it.
Of course I hate most lawyers as I am in health care and we almost had a bloodsucking phoney science attornery that made about 1/2 a billion dollars on manipulating juries become Vice President.
