"You'd be surprised how quickly and easily trust is handed over when somebody needs something from you," she sighed. "Clients will open up their entire lives to me, thinking I can help them get what they want in the courtroom. A big settlement, social justice, vengeance. It's disheartening, in a way. I do try my best to be worthy of their trust."
Her posture was more relaxed now, though she did keep one eye on the Guardian as she spoke. That particular trust would indeed need to be earned. "It's what it sounds like. I work to help those whose rights have been violated. Women fired for getting pregnant. Gay couples denied adoption services. The list is depressingly long."
