1 S.H. Law Firm

Erica came out of the courtroom after winning a case. The journalists were waiting outside the court for her statement as she just won the case against one of the richest businessmen in Seattle, because of Erica's intelligence and astuteness, she turned the tables and won this case destroying K-company's business as their shares all dropped and now the man she fought this case against has become bankrupt in few hours.

The journalists were all waiting for the 26 year old to give her statement and tell them how she won this case but this young, talented and attractive woman who looked an absolute beauty with her long hair tied in a high ponytail ignored them and headed towards her car and left.

The journalists helplessly looked at her and sighed in disappointment as she never gave them even a few seconds of an interview.

On her way to work she received a call, it was from her 55 years old boss, Jack Bagart, who is the head of the S.H. Law firm in Seattle Branch, where she works.

S.H. Law firm is the biggest firm in Seattle which started 16 years ago and later expanded itself with branches in different parts of the country. The main branch was located in Washington DC.

They only hire young and talented lawyers from eminent Law schools.

She couldn't ignore his call and answered him, he requested her to come to his office as soon as she could, he needed to have an emergency meeting with her.

....

Few minutes Ago.

Jack was sitting in his cabin talking to a client and a lawyer, Sam who works under him.

There was a heated argument going on between Sam and the client and the two were not coming to a conclusion.

After a few minutes of deep thinking Jack interrupted them.

"Okay, Mr. B, please give me two days' time, we will definitely reach a conclusion, is that okay?", He requested the client.

Sam recently joined this firm and was unable to handle the client so Jack had to jump in the discussion and handle the situation.

"Fine, I will come after two days but I need a solution by then and also make sure that there is another lawyer to handle my case" Client looked at Sam in anger and warned Jack.

"Don't worry, one of our best lawyers will handle your case. I assure you there will be a solution in two days"

The client calmed down after Jack's assurance and he left the firm.

After the client left Sam apologized to his boss.

"Don't worry, sometimes we have to deal with such short tempered clients. Nothing is wrong with you, as you are new to this firm it will take some time to understand how things work here."

"Thank you sir for understanding, for a while I panicked as the client was not giving me a chance to explain myself and directly came to your office."

"It's okay."

"So, did you really come up with a solution or…"

"I did, I don't make false promises, I would suggest you to work with Erica on this case as the client has already made an opinion of you and even though you are ready to work with him, he is not and would make things more complicated for you. So, let Erica take over this case and you assist her, you will also get to learn how to handle situations like these"

"Sure sir"

Then Jack called Erica and asked her to come over.
