legal eagles
Sharp-witted barristers
Legal eagles are lawyers, especially skilled or aggressive ones.
The rhyming phrase carries a hint of admiration for sharp legal minds who swoop in on cases: The company brought in their legal eagles to handle the lawsuit.
Often used with light irony, it can suggest both respect for expertise and wariness of the profession.
