Overview

""By Advice of Counsel"" is a compelling collection of legal stories featuring the iconic and shrewd attorney Ephraim Tutt. Set against the vibrant and often gritty backdrop of early 20th-century New York City, these narratives delve into the complexities of the American justice system through the eyes of a lawyer who is as compassionate as he is cunning. Arthur Train, drawing on his own extensive experience as a prosecutor, crafts intricate legal puzzles where the strict letter of the law often conflicts with the broader spirit of justice. The stories within this volume showcase Mr. Tutt's unique ability to navigate the labyrinthine corridors of the courtroom, frequently using obscure precedents and his profound understanding of human nature to protect the underdog. Whether dealing with corrupt officials, desperate defendants, or the rigid formalities of the bench, the protagonist remains a steadfast champion of equity. As a foundational work of legal fiction, ""By Advice of Counsel"" offers readers a sophisticated blend of wit, suspense, and insightful social commentary. Train's mastery of the genre ensures that each case is not merely a technical exercise but a compelling exploration of morality and the pursuit of truth. This collection stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of the legal thriller and the timeless battle for justice within a flawed framework.
