There was a prominent attorney from Delaware named Thomas J. Capano who was investigated for his connection to the disappearance of a woman known to be his mistress. He was arrested, charged and convicted of murder, despite the fact there was no murder weapon and no body, in large part because he refused to listen to the advice of the
four different attorneys who attempted to represent him and keep him quiet.
When he took the stand in his own defense, this against his fourth attorney's advice, the prosecuting attorney was able to use all of the various and conflicting stories Capano had told to investigators (told against his attorneys' advice) to convince the jury of Capano's guilt. He died in prison a few years ago.
The somewhat amusing part of the story is that Capano filed motions for post-conviction relief, arguing he had had ineffective legal counsel.
Here is a link to the decision on Capano's petition for habeas corpus relief:

So even
attorneys do not listen to their attorneys.
Criminals tend not to be the smartest group of humans on earth.
