Mrs Meyers asked Attorney Kim who just smiled at her and had his intern hand over a bottle of water to her. "I am the head of the Hampton's legal team. I've never lost a case under Hampton name before, everything will be just fine." He whispered to her and she nodded with a soft smile. Attorney Kim went back to his seat as they wait for the Jury's judgement and the Judge's statement. Attorney Kim glanced back at Ace and nodded his head.

Chapter 120 "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I had to attend to something inside the room," Aliyah apologized as she walked into the living room to join Knox, Mason, Tate, and prosecutor Lee, a young man that was hired by Knox to look into the case. "It's fine. Babe, meet Prosecutor Lee. He has been in this field for a few years and he's quite skilled. He will be handling the case henceforth," Knox introduced Lee to her, and she said hello to the young man.

I could feel the anger building inside of me as I stood up from the couch. "How can she be this shameless?!" I then told Ashford the entire story. He listened quietly, his expression growing darker, but his eyes on me stayed gentle and steady. "Don't worry. Leave it to me." He was a well-known lawyer who specialized in defamation and tort law. He had seen cases a hundred times worse than this, and he was good at weaponizing evidence and law.

I remained amused, unable to take my eyes off her. “Goddamn Americans. I’m Baron Von Houston, Mr. James’ attorney.” I’d never seen Baron so exasperated. “Unfortunately, Mr. Von Houston, it would appear your client will need an attorney who is licensed to practice law in the state of Kentucky.” She slowly turned her head, the flash in her eyes something I would covet for some time to come. “If you can’t afford one, one will be appointed. After all, every man, whether guilty or innocent, has a right to decent legal representation.”

After a short discussion, they decided on Malcom Yeager, a reputable criminal lawyer in Chatterton Town. Malcom had never lost a single case since his career kicked off. He was also selective with the cases he took up; he would not earn any money at the expense of his conscience. In other words, even if it meant he would be doing it for free, he would be more than willing to fight for his client as long as he felt that it was justified. That was also the reason why his reputation soared over the years. Of course, he had made many enemies in the process too.

He had a meeting with the blonde and the lawyers regarding the lawsuit she filed for damage to private property, harassment, and physical abuse. Leonel's legal advocate for the day was an assistant to his lead attorney, a longtime friend named Adam Coney, whom Leonel considered one of the best litigators in the state. The businessman wasn't worried about having an assistant represent him. Coney was in London and would not wait for him, nor would he have him come to the United States just to handle such a case, where there was no emergency. Besides, he trusted the expertise of that assistant, thinking that she was not, for any reason, the assistant of someone like Adam.

he asks but I don't reply because to be honest, I liked the fact that this case was handed over to me simply because I wasn't on the bad side but the way he insinuated that I'd ever defend criminals simply because they were rich and powerful, was an insult to me. "Listen Tayo, chief Onuh is a well known man and if you can snatch this case from him in favour of Mr Johnson, our firm will benefit wonderfully. So now you tell me, how is that a crime? Our job is to defend our clients, not prosecute them, so whatever case comes in, we do our jobs right by fighting to win, simple!" he defended and I scoffed. "I can't and I won't defend criminals but pushing that aside, what's the supposed bad news?

My gut feeling was that Jack had gotten himself caught on purpose. "Marvin, please call me when they bring him in." In the meantime, I arranged for an attorney, his name was James McIntyre. He wasn't the best in the country, but I trusted him and he was Maddy's recommendation. He had won many cases and there was no doubt in my mind that if push came to shove, I knew James wouldn't rest until he had fought dirty by my side.

"You’re here today as a witness and as the plaintiff’s boyfriend, correct?" "That’s right," he said, his tone casual but firm. The defense lawyer, a wiry man with sharp features and a calculated smirk, immediately stood. "Your Honour, I object to the term boyfriend. This is a court of law, not a high school gossip session." The judge, a stern woman with steel-gray hair, raised an eyebrow. "Overruled. Continue, Mr. Stanley." Chris leaned back slightly, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "Don’t worry, Mr. Parker. I’m perfectly capable of speaking as a witness without letting my ‘boyfriend status’ interfere."

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.”
