The Client was the 1st one I read. I loved it. I was a sit on edge of book. It had good characters written well in it. t really is suspenseful on how a young boy is involved. The fears he faces,the poverty & family he lives with. The woman attorney character is well written. How she puts her practise on the line for a young boy & does the right thing w/o monetary gain. I like books where justice rules. Again I like legal arguments in courts.

A Timeto Kill was too boring. U took took too long w/getting on w/ the jury case. U dragged the dtails out too long, it kept repeating the same issues over & over. The best part of the book was at the end,which took too long to get to!!

I like the STreet Lawyer since he leaves a big firm & its benfits .it's perks etc. He goes after what was really important justice for the small guy even though he has a really tiny office etc. I like legal part of his books,that's why I read them. I'm the Law& Order TV fan
