Note lawyer got egghead to support this shambles (7)
I believe the answer is:
message
'note lawyer' is the definition.
'message' can be an answer for 'note' (a note is a short message). I am not certain of the 'lawyer' bit.
'egghead to support this shambles' is the wordplay.
'egghead' becomes 'sage' (I've seen this in another clue).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'support this shambles' becomes 'mes' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'sage' put after 'mes' is 'MESSAGE'.
'got' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for message that I've seen before include "meaning" , "The medium is the - (McLuhan)" , "bulletin" , "Verbal or written communication" , "Spoken or written communication" .)
