Trafford is a David and Goliath courtroom battle between a small group with a cause and a giant law firm defending Big Pharma. This book is on point considering the epidemic of senseless opioid deaths occuring in recent years. Matthew Daley is a successful Manhattan corporate lawyer who defends large pharmaceutical companies, without concern for the "little guys" who fall by the wayside. Until his sister dies of a heroin overdose after becoming addicted to pain medication prescribed by her doctor. Matthew finds himself on the other side of the courtroom when he decides to quit his prestigious job and moves to his parents' basement in order to sue the drug company that manufactured the pills that led to his sister's demise. His legal team consists of an old law school chum who has never practiced law and a few lawyers-to-be. A very lopsided court case indeed. I much enjoyed Without Precedent and look forward to reading more books by J. D. Trafford. If you enjoy legal thrillers with down-trodden plaintiffs going against big corporations, this one is for you. Thank you to Thomas & Mercer and NetGalley for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
How much would you give up to get justice for your family? Matthew Daley is a Manhattan corporate lawyer at the top of his game. As the first defense attorney on call to get pharmaceutical companies out of trouble, Matt is rising in the judicial system exactly as he planned. Until his sister dies of a heroin overdose. Now, torn between conscience and career, the newly minted law partner faces a critical choice: defend the very companies that manufactured the addictive drugs, or give up his fiancée and his hard-won dream job to fight for justice in his sister's name. Returning to his blue-collar hometown with a ragtag band of law-school misfits by his side, Matt squares off against a team of New York corporate attorneys in a high-stakes courtroom battle. If he wins, the case could have national implications, bringing down the multibillion-dollar Big Pharma industry. If he loses, he'll become collateral damage in the greatest fall of his career and his life. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
