The Street Lawyer
You have seen it before, a promising lawyer, making it big in a Washington firm. Life is good, the money superb and the future looks rosy.

It was just an ordinary day at the office for Michael Brock walked into the building that morning.... or so he thought....... but then a stranger walks in and the events that followed were the beginning of a life change for Michael.

The firm has a new client and as the story unveils it becomes apparent that their deal has not been entirely legal. When Michael learns that his firm is not acting in a just manner he decides to switch sides.
Michael finds that with the tables turned, he is now a small fish in a big pond trying to attack a SHARK!!! Some might regard his actions as suicidal..... but will justice prevail?

Although I enjoyed this book, I did find it was rather cheezy in that a rich lawyer is involved in a life changing incident and then rediscovers his "first love" of why he entered the profession.

From some of the comments at the end of the book I get the feeling that Grisham did his homework on how his Government deals with Homeless Statistics........ It makes you think.
