Chapter 231: Meeting with Marlon Shepherd
Four days later, in the capital city, the Carving Time Cafe near the Workers’ Stadium. Marlon Shepherd had just received a call from Yusuf Zuck. Yusuf claimed he wanted to meet to talk, just the two of them, without Collins Brown, and without hesitation, Marlon suggested this cafe and asked Yusuf to come over on his own.
Marlon Shepherd was a registered lawyer at the ’Ren Tiejun Law Firm’ in the capital. As is well known, many law firms are named after their founders, and a registered law firm requires at least two people. Marlon was registered at Ren Tiejun Law Firm.
Of course, being registered there merely meant having an office space. As for taking on cases, one could either wait for clients to come knocking or take on cases through various connections.
If a lawyer wants to make money, they need to take on cases or serve as a legal advisor for a company.
Marlon was now the type who was too proud to stoop but not noble enough to climb. How to put it, his family background was not bad, but he belonged to the ordinary waged class in the capital. To start an independent law firm in the capital required two things, fame and money.
Without money, one couldn’t even afford the rent.
Over the years, Marlon had managed to save some personal funds through his efforts and with his parents’ help. Thus, his marriage home was newly bought, fully paid, and he even had his own car.
