Books like Rogue Lawyer by John Grisham


Sebastian Rudd operates without a firm, partners, or associates, relying on his highly modified van and a single loyal driver/bodyguard who also serves as his clerk. He takes on cases that other attorneys avoid: a drug‑addled teenager accused of molesting and murdering girls, a death‑row crime lord, and a homeowner who shot at a SWAT team that mistakenly entered his house. Rudd believes anyone deserves a fair trial and will employ unconventional tactics—sometimes illicit—to secure that justice.
