Default Can a Thief fight a Lawyer

The card says the Lawyer will not attack the Thief, and the Thief may trade 2 treasure cards for 2 new ones. Does the Thief still have the option of fighting the Lawyer, so that he can gain the level and 2 new treasure cards?

Of course you can. You can fight it normally. If you happen to be a very underpowered Thief, however, the card simply provides a comical way out of the fight.

Not according to MunchkinMan in this post:

He says a Thief CANNOT fight a Lawyer, just like a female cannot fight an Amazon.

Yeah, the "instead" in this case is that instead of the Lawyer just walking away, he can give you some Treasure if you discard cards first before he walks away.

The thief might still be able to attack the Lawyers.

No, a Thief may not fight a Lawyer. And, a link was given to where that answer was already given.
