"Who were those two guys just now?" asked Bernard as soon as he walked into the living room as he stared at the backs of the two agents. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As a lawyer who works with law enforcement agencies all day long, he hardly needs much judgment, and just getting closer can smell the smell of the FBI.

"Hehe, you know and ask. Lu Li smiled and rubbed his dry eyes.

After knowing each other for so long, he knows too well what kind of virtue this lawyer in front of him is who is a lawyer who is omnipotent in pornography, gambling and drugs.

To put it nicely, it is called indulgence, and if it is not good, it is called to use life as death, and there is a slight anarchist tendency, and any case that can add to the blockage of government agencies would rather lower the fee standard than just brush up the prestige of a positive wave.

Civil servants and politicians throughout Florida, as soon as they hear the name Bernard, they are immediately scared and have nightmares when they even sleep at night.

This shows his talent in this area, as well as his momentum to bite the enemy like a mad dog.

Even when the police hear that the suspect has hired Bernard to defend him, he immediately has to double-check the chain of evidence from beginning to end to make sure that there are no loopholes and no irregularities in the law enforcement process, otherwise the case will definitely be overturned.

Before coming to the United States, Lu Li never dared to imagine that a lawyer could be so arrogant, so he chose the other party to become his personal lawyer without even thinking about it.

As a newcomer, what he needed most was this mad dog lawyer who would make everyone fearful.

"It turned out to be an FBI dog, no wonder there was a smell on it. Why, have they come to trouble you?" Bernard's eyes showed a hint of undisguised disgust.

Lu Li smiled and shook his head: "No, they just came to understand the situation." By the way, did you have anything important to come to me today?"

Hearing that he was not looking for trouble, Bernard's face looked a little better, and he quickly took out a few documents from his briefcase and put them on the table.

"Of course there are important things! In general, there are two things. The first is a lawsuit against Adam Bellman for racial discrimination, which is now being heard by the court and will be heard in about two weeks. If nothing else, with the video evidence we have, and Emily's cooperation, it will be absolutely fine to send Adam Bellman to a juvenile detention center for two years. ”

"Wait!What's going on with Emily's willingness to cooperate?" Lu Li interrupted the talkative lawyer.

"Quite simply, according to the First Amendment to the Constitution, every citizen is guaranteed freedom of speech, so it is often difficult to convict of verbal racial discrimination, and we must also prove that he has a tendency to use violence in the process of racial discrimination. And Miss Emily, who almost got beaten, happened to be a perfect witness, so I had an in-depth conversation with her and became her lawyer. Now the two plaintiffs are simultaneously indicting more than a dozen counts of racial discrimination, discrimination against women, attempted intentional injury, and physical assault. Bernard triumphantly stated his plan.

As one of the top civil litigation lawyers in the industry, he is best at exaggerating, reversing black and white, characterizing an ordinary teenage conflict as a vicious little hooligan who maliciously harms a beautiful girl and publicly insults a legitimate businessman who can pay a large amount of taxes to the city of Miami.

It is estimated that the judge and the jury, with a little brain, will understand which side to choose which side to win.

However, Lu Li didn't care about this, and immediately explained: "I'm not referring to the way of the lawsuit, it's how you persuaded Emily. You know, she's my girlfriend's best friend, and I don't want to see something unpleasant happen in the future. ”

Bernard shrugged his shoulders disappreciatively: "Don't worry, I promised Miss Emily when I signed the agreement that I would get at least $100,000 in compensation after this lawsuit was agreed." ”

"Can you really get it?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows a little uncertainly.

After all, according to the urine nature of Americans who like to overdraft credit card consumption, a family that sends their children to public high schools basically can't save much.

Not to mention 100,000 US dollars, it is not easy to come up with 20,000 US dollars or 30,000 US dollars of liquidity at a critical moment.

"Hehe, the average family may not be able to lose that much money, but the Bellman family will definitely lose it. I asked a private detective to investigate, and they were quite wealthy, and several of their members were suspected of criminal activities, and the property in their name alone was worth $400,000, and even if they were poor enough to sell their house, they would be able to collect the compensation. Bernard gave a sinister assurance.

Like many lawyers who like to investigate their opponent's financial situation before going to court, he will also make preparations before the trial to ensure that the defendant has the minimum ability to pay.

Lu Li nodded thoughtfully: "I see...... So what's the other important thing?"

Bernard hurriedly pulled out a few sheets of A4 paper pressed underneath, and said with a serious expression: "This is a settlement agreement, sent by Rannett Pharmaceutical this morning, and the one in the back is sent by Arthur Bateson's wife and daughter. Their message is clear: they want you to remain silent and waive the civil liability for Arthur Batesson's kidnapping of you. For this, they are willing to pay a considerable settlement amount. ”

"But I didn't plan to pursue it!" Lu Li blinked in confusion.

In his heart, since Arthur Bateson was shot and killed by the GIs, even if the grievances between the two were thoroughly understood, there was no need to harass each other's relatives and the pharmaceutical company that was about to go out of business.

"Oh, God, dear Lu, don't you know that even if the criminal dies, you have the right to prosecute the court and demand compensation from his heirs? As for Arthur Bateson's family, they don't want to be ostracized by high society because they are involved in scandals. Bernard patiently explained what was at stake behind the two agreements.

"Then what do you mean......" Lu Li had no experience in this area at all, and wanted to hear what the professionals had to say.

"I think if you want to integrate into high society quickly, it's better to sign this settlement agreement and send a signal of goodwill and try not to be aggressive as much as possible. Bernard gave his advice after a little thought.

"Okay, then I'll sign this settlement. But before I sign it, can I ask them what they are going to pay for?" Lu Li asked in a half-joking tone.

Bernard put on his glasses, pointed to the last few lines of the clause, and read it in a low voice: "The board of directors of Lennett Pharmaceutical Company is willing to pay for a Piper PA-42 commercial propeller aircraft owned by the company, with a total value of about 10 million US dollars, and it has only flown for less than a year. Arthur Bateson's family is willing to transfer an old apartment in Brooklyn, New York, to your name......"
