Hell no PL - tho interesting observation about lawyers and accountants - otherwise known as "suits"
Don't have much to do with accountants, but got three lawyers hanging around and do 1-4 legal meetings/week with one or more and sure would not dream of wasting time beautifying myself for 'em. This has nothing to do with disrespect etc - most are really friends, so what's the point?
Other aspect is... you hire professionals to do whatever job. They either do that job or depart quickly like anyone else. Never dressed up to meet with a plumber yet, so what's the difference?
Only occasion where formality applies is in court applications/appearances. It's a leftover from trying to not look like a tramp when you got immaculately dressed counsel representing you or a corp - damn em ;-)
