Hobert's defense was brilliant, as he effectively avoided his opponent's attacks while blocking all of his opponent's retreats with a surprise blow.

However, Hobert also knew that the victory in this lawsuit was also due to the opponent's too "cooperation" with him, and he had considered this issue yesterday, and if Barton was asked to defend the defendant, he would never insist that the IOU had no legal effect.

Doing so would either lead to an endless argument with the plaintiff's lawyers, or it would allow the plaintiffs' attorneys, like Hobert, to exploit loopholes in the relevant regulations.

None of this should be what the defendant's counsel would like to see.

Of course, this is only hypothetical, and Barton would not be interested in such a small case.

Soon the judge gave the defendant three weeks to repay the loan.

At the moment when the judge handed down his verdict, Hobert felt the exhilaration, digesting the potion again!

He immediately concluded: This time to digest the potion, is it because I completed the commission? No, completing the commission only makes the spirit more lively. Is it because I'm taking advantage of the rules of the law? Wrong!

Hobert suddenly realized: it's a loophole, I took advantage of a loophole in the regulations!

Compared to the previous potion digestions, Hobart found that the potions digested by exploiting loopholes to win the lawsuit this time were similar to the potions digested when using the rules to take actions in his favor.

Being good at using the rules, being good at finding and exploiting loopholes in the rules, this is the core of "lawyers"!

Hobert smiled knowingly, and if he played according to this code, he would digest the potion faster than he had planned!

Maybe two or three more cases like this, and you will be able to completely digest the potion yourself!

After retiring from the courtroom, Sean warmly shook hands with Hobert and said, "This is the most wonderful debate I've ever seen!" ”

When he signed the power of attorney with Hobart yesterday, he was still a hundred uneasy, thinking that Hobart was too young and a legal assistant, and he didn't know if it was the opponent of the opposing lawyer.

Seeing the defendant's deflated appearance today, Sean felt that the lawyer's fees were really worth it.

Coming to the auditorium, Foirth smiled: "Originally, when Hughla and I came, I thought I would see two lawyers arguing word by word over some legal texts that made people want to fall asleep.

"I didn't expect you to win so cleanly, well, it gave me a lot of inspiration, I will have to listen to your defense in the future, maybe I can also write a novel with the main character being a lawyer."

Hobart smiled, "I'm going to be here tomorrow to defend the accuser, and you can come back if you want to, but that defense should be difficult." ”

Tomorrow he's going to defend Bob here.

After chatting for a while, the defendant had promised to repay the loan within this week, and Mr. Sean would pay Hobart's commission fee only after the other party repaid the money.

Instead of returning to the law firm, Hobart took a horse-drawn taxi to the legal department to get his lawyer's license.

From today onwards, he is a full-fledged lawyer, which qualifies him to defend in full-fledged courts.

Of course, the premise is that he is asked to defend himself, and generally the cases in the formal court are criminal cases or disputes between nobles.

As long as they can afford to spend it, they will ask a barrister to help them with their lawsuits.

The most common job of a formal lawyer is to help barristers prepare defense materials, and they rarely have the opportunity to go to court.

If you can't afford the lawyer's fee, there is a high probability that you will choose not to hire a lawyer, because ordinary lawyers are not the opponent of barristers at all, and they often lose the case if they spend money, so it is better to accept their fate without paying back.

Such thinking and the status quo limit the chances of an ordinary lawyer like Hobart going to court.

However, Hobert believes that Bob's case may require a lawyer's license, and he is actually a little apprehensive when he thinks of tomorrow's defense, and he doesn't know if his plan will succeed.

At dinner, Donna saw that something was wrong with Hobert: "Hobert, you seem to be a little absent-minded. ”

"I'm thinking about tomorrow's defense ideas." Hobert smiled: "It's going to be a huge test for me. ”

"Hahaha, it's good to be stressed!" Christine laughs, "It shows that you're improving." ”

He sighed: "This reminds me of my experience in the Southern Continent, when I was a young man about the same age as you......"

So the repertoire on the dinner table "The General's Story in the Southern Continent" began, but as soon as Christine's story began, Donna unceremoniously interrupted: "You guys blew up the enemy's bunker together, right?" You've told the story of my father! …… So the two of you took nine enemies captive, didn't you? Father, you've told this story too......"

Looking at Christine, who was thinking hard and didn't know whether she was making up a new story or trying to remember her glorious deeds, Hobart smiled and suddenly felt much better.

The next day, Hobart had to arrive early in the magistrate's court, much to his surprise, Bob had arrived earlier.

He was still leaning on a cane made of tree branches, and his clothes were tattered and had several obvious holes, but this one was obviously washed, and looked much cleaner than the last time they had met. His hair was also trimmed, which made him look much more energetic.

The two looked at each other and smiled, one in front of the other, and entered the magistrate's court, one sitting in the plaintiff's bench and the other in the plaintiff's lawyer's bench.

At this time, Hobert whispered to Bob: "I said before that this case is very difficult, this is not pretense, but we can easily become the enemy of many people, and even the judge will stand on the opposite side of us." ”

Bob nodded: "Mr. Lawyer, I know how rare it is for you to sit next to me. ”

Hobert smiled: "I don't mean to brag about it, I just want to have your complete trust!" After the court session later, no matter what I do, you will support me. ”

"I can trust you, Mr. Lawyer." Bob said, "David told me about you taking their commission and helping them recover their losses. ”

Hobber nodded, "That's good." ”

After that, it was time for the court to begin, and a few people gradually appeared in the auditorium, including David and Robin, as well as a few of Bob's co-workers, and Foirth sitting in the corner.

At nine o'clock, the judge was seated and the court officially began.

As the plaintiff's lawyer, Hobart first stated the fact that Bob was disabled and incapacitated at the defendant's factory.

"We're not going to pay off." The defendant's lawyer smiled: "Mr. Arnold is a benevolent rich man, he has paid Mr. Bob's medical expenses in accordance with the relevant regulations, and will pay Mr. Bob a lump sum of 100 pounds." ”

"That's exactly what I'm saying," said Hobert, "that £100 will not sustain Mr. Bob for the rest of his life." ”

"So what?"

"We need at least £1,000 in compensation!"

As soon as these words came out, they attracted several exclamations.

The defendant's lawyer shook his head: "Plaintiff's lawyer, this is the courtroom, not the circus, and you are not a clown who tells some lame jokes on stage." ”
