With 106 inbounds, do we have any redirect options?

We could redirect it to Hot Chick In A Badass Suit except, well, that page has most of the same problems, and some of its own.
We could just send it to an index like fanservice or The Beautiful Tropes, or even to The Courtroom Index.
I'd say redirect to Fanservice.

What about redirecting to Hello Nurse or Hot Scientist? Seems to be Hot Scientist but for Lawyers trope-wise, and Hello Nurse when it comes to other character's reactions.

The page right now doesn't appear to be about character reactions at all, which is why Hello X is a bad snowclone for it.
I guess we could send inbounds to Hot Scientist, since anyone looking for the page really just wants a list of hot women. But that page seems more legit that this one since it could equally well be called Unrealistically Hot Scientist or Inexplicably Hot Scientist - the description, if not the examples, focuses on how the trope breaks from reality.

Thing about Hello Nurse is that it's about in-universe. The character in question doesn't have to be a nurse, just that other characters are constantly drooling over her (or his) beauty. It's not the best name, but nobody could come to a consensus for a good rename.
In regard to Hello Attorney, this, Hospital Hottie, and Hot Scientist all pretty much have the same issues. I'd say merge them into one general trope (Sexualized Professional?)

Don't forget Fair Cop.
And Good-Looking Privates, and Right-Hand Hottie, and Sexy Secretary. Man there are a lot of these.
From what I'm understanding, Firemen Are Hot and Hot Librarian specifically play to/lampshade the archetypes behind it. All these others just seems like a page for people to gush about characters.
After thinking about, Hollywood Professional or something like that may work since in a lot of ways, the intention of these tropes are pretty similar to Hollywood Nerd.

Right-Hand Hottie and Sexy Secretary are archetypes. They're stock characters at this point and ones that are frequently lampshaded. That whole trope about a character having an affair with their secretary comes from them. There's even a song in How To Succeed In Business Without Even Trying called "A Secretary Is Not a Toy" about the trope.
I agree with your assessment of the rest of them though.

This page lists attorneys that contributors find attractive. It consists almost entirely of Zero Context Examples, which is bad, though probably better than the alternative. It has a Real Life section.
Is there anything worth salvaging here, or should we redirect this elsewhere? We generally cut tropeless lists of troper sex targets.
We could also start a wider discussion on the many Sexy And Has Job X pages, but many of them at least justify themselves in covering sexier-than-reality examples. In contrast, there's no reason for real lawyers to be unattractive. Actually, they really do wear make-up, dress in attractive business attire etc.
