Disreputable lawyer (coll.) (7)

I believe the answer is:

shyster

(Other definitions for shyster that I've seen before include "Suspect lawyer" , "Disreputable type" , "Disreputable practitioner (especially lawyer)" , "Pettifogger" , "Unethical man" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
