First Class Lawyer Novel Novels & Stories

The lawyer's name was Catherine. She set her leather case on the kitchen table — the table, which had been cleared and wiped after the telling, after the photograph, after the full architecture of the morning's first chapter, which now felt like it had happened in a different morning from the one she was currently in — and she opened it and she placed things on the table with the specific efficiency of someone for whom the work of the table was something she had done many times in many kitchens and hotel rooms and conference rooms and who had therefore long since stopped being conscious of the placing itself and was already in the thinking while the hands did the placing.

I went to the top floor. A man was waiting for me in a large office. His name was Mr. Specter. He was a lawyer who did not work for the Sterling family. He was the best fraud lawyer in the country. He was expensive, but I had paid him using a bank account my mother did not know about. Mr. Specter stood up when I walked in. He did not look tired. He looked at my wet hair and my muddy boots. "You look like you have been in a fight," Mr. Specter said.

She poured herself coffee and sat down across from him because the table was large enough that it didn't feel like a concession. "There's food," he said. "I see it." "You should eat." "I should do a lot of things." She wrapped both hands around the mug. "I want to see the files today. All of them." "After nine. My lawyer is bringing the second set." "You have a lawyer who makes house calls at nine in the morning?" "I have a lawyer who does whatever I need him to do." He turned a page. "His name is Fausto. Don't be charmed by him. He's very charming and completely without conscience."

“My lawyer delivered it before we arrived.” My heart squeezed painfully in my chest. “Why?” He gave a slight shrug, as though he were discussing a merger instead of rewriting my future. “You haven't read it yet. Once you do, you'll understand.” I lowered my eyes and began to scan the pages. Each sentence felt like a needle slipping beneath my skin. By the second page, my fingers had started to shake. By the third, my stomach had dropped. And by the fourth, one terrible truth stood before me in undeniable black and white.

"I've stopped writing. I won't write tragedies like this anymore. "As it turns out, there's no such thing as a life that's doomed from the start. What people call 'no way out' usually just means that no one has been willing to lend a helping hand yet, and no one has been willing to use the rules and the law to protect those who are being harmed. "I want to write new stories—stories about attorneys like you, about women like Eleanor who break free from the darkness, about the light of the law, and about the warmth of humanity."

Haziya's eyebrows knit together, she didn't ask Zaweel to be a lawyer for the trial process. "My first case must win.'" Huft, Zaweel turns out to have a certain purpose. "Just find another client, I'm not your experiment." "Don't get me wrong, for your sake I don't even need to be paid." Haziya wants to block him again, let's say tomorrow Zaweel will text him with a new number he will do it anyway. "Ziya, we will solve this case immediately so you can safely work." Haziya looked thoughtful.

The laughter of the ladies got so audible it pierced my ears and I scurried to a corner to hide. The blaring of a vehicle by the road ripped me from my reflections and I jerked. I glanced across the street and I noticed a chubby tall man standing by the sidewalk. His built reminded me again of the Lorry driver and an image of the disgusted look he donned, quickly flashed through my mind and another gush of tears flowed from my eyes.

The small crowd in the courtroom began to murmur again and I am sure it isn’t in my favour. Damn it. I hope Max can salvage this. I didn’t expect this last question. I looked at the young lawyer slightly impressed. After learning that he just graduated law school five years ago, I discounted him as someone who wouldn’t be a threat. I even laughed at how we are going to wipe the floor with Kamaria’s group if they are being lead by someone so green in tears. What I foolishly forgot is who his father is. One of the best defence attorneys in England, if not the World.

It was already crystal clear: it was every man for himself here.
