Ace Attorney Witness Stand Novels & Stories

“Specializing in estate planning and wills. I’ve been practicing for over thirty years.” “Thirty years,” my lawyer repeated, nodding. “And in those thirty years, have you ever been disciplined, suspended, or found guilty of misconduct?” “Never.” “Good. Now, did you personally draft the will of Mr. Anthony Thompson?” “Yes, I did.” “Were you present when Mr. Thompson signed this will?” “I was.” “Can you describe his state of mind that day?” Mr. Walker folded his hands on the witness stand. “He was clear. Direct. He knew exactly what he wanted. He asked specific questions about certain clauses, and he insisted his daughter Lily receive all his assets. There was no hesitation in his decisions.”

I was consumed by rage as I stepped down back to my seat, as I knew the point he was trying to prove. “We call on Mr. Nolan Westbrook to take the stand,” My heart skipped a beat, I wasn't aware Nolan was going to take the stand and as he got there, he took an oath, his eyes were on me. “Mr. Nolan, can you tell….” Mr. Collins, his lawyer, started when Nolan interrupted him.

Dave, her attorney, had prepared her well, but nothing could fully quell the anxiety that bubbled within her. As she took a deep breath, Daniel, the plaintiff’s attorney, approached the witness box with an air of confidence. He was a tall man with a sharp jawline and piercing eyes, and he wasted no time in beginning his questioning.

They seemed like a lost cause right now. The lawyer stood to her feet and matched forward. “I would like to submit a request to bring in the last testifier” Something about her bursting confidence must’ve made the other lawyer jump in fright. After all, he knew of her records in winning cases. He immediately ran over to the front of the judge desk when she stood. “I disagree, all witnesses requests are supposed to be submitted before the hearing-” “This was last minute and this witness is very important for this case” The judge listened to both of them and announced.

Her betrayal of her ex husband would be child's play where this was because his reputation was at stake as well. She was going to take advantage of it. She was going to make sure she was there to offer him a shoulder to cry on and from that warm her way back into his heart and life. The court session continued without interruptions. 'I want to call on Mr. Christopher Whitman'. Chris went up to the witness stand and took his oath. This was the first time they were calling him to the stand. 'You are a practicing lawyer as well aren't you?' 'Yes I am'. 'So you know that your testimony here could affect your carrier if you gave a wrong testimony?'

He nodded once and stepped back just as the bailiff called us to sit. The judge entered and everyone rose. My heart raced. I already knew what was coming next. The prosecutor stood and adjusted her glasses, her tone sharp and authoritative. “We call Stella McCartney to the stand.” The moment the words reached my ears, everything inside me stilled. Megan squeezed my hand. “You can do this.” I nodded once and forced myself up. My heels clicked against the marble floor, echoing a steady beat that did not match the frantic drum inside my chest. As I stepped into the witness box, the world felt too bright, too focused, like the spotlight was burning through my skin.

His smirk widened like he was satisfied I had just discovered something. I shook my head. "It can't be" I mumbled under my breath. "What's wrong Addy? You look pale" Garret asked. "I'll now call our witness, Adeline Winters to the stand" the prosecutor called and I stood on autopilot. Unable to tell Garret my fears. Eyes followed me as I walked to the witness box. I kept my eyes down as I sat. "You're doing great Adeline" the prosecutor whispered and I tried to smile but it came out as a wince. I was fucking terrified at the moment. Something was wrong with this retrial.

the shuffle of papers, the clearing of throats, the scratch of a pen. “Bring forward the accused.” Me. My chest tightened painfully as I stood. Each step toward the front felt like walking through thick mud. My mind screamed, Run. But my body obeyed. The prosecutor rose...tall, sharp, eyes cold with purpose. “Your Honor,” he began, “the prosecution is ready to present its witnesses.” The judge nodded. “Proceed.” “Call your first witness.” Chelsea. My step sister stood. She didn’t hesitate. She didn’t falter. She walked to the stand like this was something she’d rehearsed in her sleep. She swore the oath easily, her face calm, composed.

She nearly collapsed, but Henry rushed to support her, guiding her back to her seat. Then came the kicker. Ethan rose and said, “We’d like to call a witness, Your honor.” Henry Wallace sprang up. “Objection! The defense did not submit a witness list. This isn't appropriate.” Ethan was unflinching. “The witness came forward only this morning, your honor.

You and your mate can come up to the witness stand.” The Luna Regent gestures to the witness seat up front. “Mister Marshall, we ask that you please refrain from speaking while Zara is on the stand. Unless it is necessary, of course. You are just here to give her support so she can complete her part of the trial.” “Yes, Luna Regent.

Mike lets the pack lawyer question Zara first.
