The Case And Exceptions; Stories Of Counsel And Clients

By Frederick Trevor Hill

Book Overview

A quietly transformative doorway into law and life. The Case And Exceptions invites readers into the human heart of the courtroom and the study, where counsel and clients collide with conscience, power, and humanity. This is more than a memoir; it is a compact salon of legal anecdotes and courtroom stories that illuminate professional ethics in practice. Frederick Trevor Hill gathers early twentieth century edwardian Britain through vivid episodes that read as both legal ethics compendiums and intimate portraits of the men and women who shaped the profession. The book threads together counselling, strategy, and the frailties that accompany duty, offering fresh insight for law students, practising lawyers, and curious readers alike. Its significance rests in its historic resonance and its enduring relevance. Restored for today's and future generations, the collection stands as a culture-rich record of a pivotal era, while resonating with modern concerns about ethics, accountability, and the human cost of advocacy. For casual readers, the stories offer engrossing narratives about ambition and justice; for classic-literature collectors, they constitute a rare, cherished window into a bygone profession. Selling points: out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions; restored for today's and future generations; more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. The Case And Exceptions promises a memorable journey through the dynamics of law, life, and the enduring search for ethical clarity.
