Man, I thought this sort of stuff only happened in John Grisham novels. Who knew being a lawyer would be so dangerous?

So, with some hope, is only a qustion of time until we identify who dit it...

But the person that did it was probably only under orders of another person...

We have some suspects, 2 persons that we won big lawsuits against and a lawyer that we denouced for malpractice and unethical behavior with his own clients...

What sort of lawyer are you, Makinus? Criminal (angry convicted criminals), tax (angry tax cheaters), divorce (angry husbands/wives)...? Just curious. I don't know the proper names for the lawyers of different things, but I think you understand what I mean http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

btw. I'm happy you survived. Cheers!

I mainly work with civil rights and tax defense, but in our office we have lawyers of every area except criminal, and we have a huge number of cases so itīs kind of hard to know who would want to attack us (there are too many suspects).

But, like i said earlier, we narrowed the case to 3 suspects, but we could be wrong, the police will probably discover more...

One of the suspects is really high in our list because Last week he threatened our client trying to make him desist from his lawsuit...

I work in a similar environment. I work in a probation office, and in my 10 years here, I'm surprised no one has tried anything like that. Either that, or pulling out a gun and start bLasting away. Some of these probation officers treat these people like scum ( some of them are, but there is still ways to deal with people without being rude and shouting at them), and I wouldn't be surprised if one of these days someone snaps and tries to do something to harm an officer or just the people in the office in general. You can't tell with some of them; most have been doing drugs most of their lives, so they're not the most stable people to deal with.

The big news today here in Australia is a Lawyer who hired a hitman to take out a witness for 300K. Maybe you should do the same http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif .

Edit: What I mean is take out the perpetrator so he doesn't get off lightly.
