Customer Reviews

Funny, poignant, and brilliant memoire of former prosecutor

It's a pity if this book is not widely read. It is the most well-written and vivid acount of how it is like to be an Assistant District Attorney among anything similar I have read so far. And it describes very persuasively how a young prosecutor with a high ideal will eventually be burned out.Highly recommended.

ROUGH JUSTICE

Intimate look at life from a young lawyer's perspective -the witnesses, victims and defendants who each have their own version of the truth to share. If you want to go beyond the sensational novels that portray the "reality" of a lawyer's life and get the real inside story, this is a must-read book, showing how hard it can be to find true justice in the legal system of today.
