Lawyer Novels & Stories

“Who the fuck are you, her bodyguard? You a cop or something?” I keep my tone even, draining all the emotion out of it until I sound like I’m delivering a closing argument. “Associate at Harlan & Pierce. That makes me a lawyer. And,” I gesture slightly toward Megan, “so is she. We bill by the hour, and right now, you’re racking up a debt you can’t pay.”

I was hoping you would tell me. He said, "I'm a finance and corporate lawyer." "My knowledge of family law is nil." Do you know somebody who is in the know? Barry wanted to snatch the dumb lawyer by the throat and squeeze him through the phone. He responded, "Oh, sure, of course." "I'll get right back to you."

"Excuse me? You little..." "I am not finished," Cleo snapped, raising a single, manicured finger that effectively silenced Laila on the spot. "Secondly, I am a broad spectrum lawyer - I cover everything from family law to criminals. I spend my entire working week dealing with bitter, territorial, wildly insecure ex-wives who use their children as pawns to maintain control over men who no longer want them. I know the playbook back to front, Laila. And let me assure you, barging into his workplace to stake a phantom claim over him is not a good look. It borders on harassment." Laila turned a violent shade of puce, her mouth opening and closing like a landed fish

His words hit me like a bucket of ice water. I looked at him, clinging to the smallest sliver of hope. "You’re one of the best in the legal field. Your record is truly impressive. Can you—" Before I could finish speaking, he cut me off, "Ms. York, I'm a lawyer, not a miracle worker. The law is based on evidence. Within that framework, I can fight for my client's best interests. What I can't do is twist the truth. Do you understand?" The last of my hope vanished.

He asked, extremely shocked. "She is not just any lawyer but a very brilliant and respected one. She is one of the best in the country and she has never lost any case. Unfortunately for us, Family law is one of her specializations and to be honest with you, if we take this case to court, there is no way we would win against Jayda Wright. She is simply the best." Daniel said in all honesty.

My boss raised an eyebrow, suggesting he saw through me already but didn't want to meddle. “ Thanks for your concern” I smiled again and he nodded. We walked together before he departed to the CEO's while I headed for mine. I work as a corporate Lawyer in H&T Law firm. My experience in my role has shaped me into becoming the best in my field. Also , I often showcase my expertise in trial and divorce related issues. That was how versatile I was in my field. No wonder Camilla, my secretary, often looked at me with a mix of admiration and envy.

Luci asked with some surprise. Tony laughed. “Pardon my ignorance but if it’s not related to crime and law, I hardly pay much attention to the people making the money in the business world. I must have missed it.” He finished with a genial smile. And Lucianda gave a short nod. ‘That’s believable. Even their lawyer sometimes misses the business news out there, preferring to give all of his time to legal matters.’

“Who is Mr. Knights lawyer? Liam says this lawyer has a way of making things… disappear.” Wilder pulled a folder out of his jacket and handed it to Saint. “His name is Samuel L. Lance” He said, “been a lawyer for about thirty eight years. He’s won many cases where crucial evidence has gone missing and his clients are questionable. Many of them are criminals ranging in everything from assault, drugs, and in five cases… murder.” A clang came from the kitchen and everyone turned their head to see Jackson picking a pot off the floor. Nathan jumped up off the couch and went over to help him.

“BESTIE?!!! ARE YOU STILL THERE?” I never thought Liz could do it in such a short period. I smiled and responded, “Sorry, I just couldn’t believe you managed to find one. Fill me in with the details.” Liz continued to deliver the wonderful news. It was like music to my ears. “So the lawyer I got is from Crossbow Pack. Lucian Fox is a gamma there and accepted to represent you in this long battle.” I chuckled and displayed a powerful smile. “Wonderful! Thank you, Liz. I’ll surely remember this favor. When can we see him?”

The door opened again. It was my lawyer who walked in dressed in a black suit, holding his briefcase “Good evening,” he said politely. He looked at me and nodded. “Mr. Jacobs.” Then he turned to the officer. “I’m Barrister Anderson, Mr. Jacobs’ legal representative.” “Please, have a seat,” the officer said. The lawyer sat beside me. “My apologies for the delay, Mr. Jacobs,” he said quietly. “I had a court hearing and my phone was on silent. I came here immediately after seeing your message.”
