For generations, lawyers from the firm of Isham Truitt had represented the interests of the Fillmore National Bank. And Fillmor National meant David Fillmore, scion of a banking dynasty whose multinational consortium included holdings of every variety. David Fillmore's word was law . . . even if Isham Truitt, for an impressive retainer, had to draft the legislation for him.

The prestigious New York firm had an organization to match its blue-chip clientele: the senior partners were profiled in Time, and a junior partnership was the sole ambition for each of the two-hundred-odd associates who backed them up.

Tom Lichine's credentials were impeccably Ivy League, and the Isham Truitt grapevine had it that his connections were even better. But when he appeared in his office early one morning bearing the marks of a fistfight, the rumor mill began working overtime. And when, later the same day, he was fired for mishandling a pro bono murder case -- and was indicted for murder himself -- it seemed that not even Tom's connections could save him . . .

Counselors-at-Law ushers the reader into the high-pressure world of the big New York firms and their even bigger clients; into the offices and boardrooms, where discreet silence is the rule; and into the solemn courtrooms, where every witness is sworn to tell the truth -- if necessary.
