Re: ORIGINAL STUFF THREAD

Maybe I'll actually participate in NaNo for once this year, because reading all of those defense lawyer blogs made me realize I have legitimately never seen a story about a defense lawyer who's defending someone who they believe is probably (but not definitely) guilty and yet still does their best because that's their job goddamn it. Probably don't know enough about the law to make it realistic though.

That sounds like a really good story. I mean I love lawyer stories but I tend to see a lot of people who prefer it when the person is actually innocent.

Also I dislike when law shows paint the defense attorney as being a villain or even "skeevy" for taking the position. I'm like "um maybe the defendent isn't pleasant but, they're doing their job."

That's basically the plot of the Phoenix Wright games.

Not...entirely? I've played most of the Phoenix Wright games and I can't remember a specific case like that. Also, the concept in my head is a lot less happy-go-lucky, and the probably guilty guy gets cleared of all charges. It's more an exploration of ethics and morality, now that I think about it--how do you decide what the right thing to do is, even if it means that a murderer goes free?

nayrt

There's one case where your client is guilty, but it's not like your concept. It takes a while for Phoenix to find out and he only keeps defending them because they have a hostage.

FWIW I'd be interested in your story.
