Chapter 536
Catelyn approached one lawyer after another, using the money David gave her.
"...I'm so sorry, Miss Clark, our lawyers might not have the competence to take on your case."
"...Miss Clark, we accepted a big project recently. Our schedules are full."
"...There's a legal firm next door. Maybe you should give them a try?"
When everyone heard that the counterparty lawyer was Benjamin Anderson, they all backed out and profusely rejected all her offers.
Benjamin, Benjamin.
He was a demon that everyone was scared of.
Catelyn recalled that back in the days when Benjamin's name had intimidated Jamie's lawyer so much that she could easily win the suit without doing much. Did karma finally hit her?
Catelyn finally managed to hire an unknown lawyer with a lot of money. The kind that was fresh out of college and just obtained his license.
Sometimes, when Catelyn asked about her custody rights, he had to refer to his books for a long while to come up with an answer.
Catelyn looked at the lawyer before her, her concerns and fear magnified.
The lawyer saw her worried look and comforted her, "Miss Clark, please don't worry, even if the counterparty is represented by the infamous Benjamin Anderson, I will try my best!"
"Could you please be frank with me, how confident are you in winning this lawsuit?" Catelyn asked robotically, her lips opened and closed like a machine, her facial expression lost vitality.
The lawyer paused and looked troubled. "Miss Clark, you frequently changed your job and home, your economic power is also not on par with the father, and you could not take care of the two kids properly, so..."
"You don't have to say anything more." Catelyn closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she insisted, "I am willing to pay three times the fee! Even if there is only a one percent chance for me to win this, please help me to fight for this!"
However, she had not expected that the next morning, when she arrived at their law firm, the lawyer requested to resign himself from the suit.
The lawyer appeared to be avoiding her and stuttered to make some excuse.
Catelyn knew that Cedrick must have bribed him!
