Her job is to stand in court representing the mad and the bad, the vulnerable, the heartbroken and the hopeful. She must become their voice: weave their story around the black and white of the law and tell it to the courtroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese stories may not make headlines but they will change the lives of ordinary people in extraordinary ways. They are stories which, but for a twist of luck, might have been yours. With remarkable candour, Sarah describes eleven cases which reveal what goes on in our criminal and family courts: these are tales of domestic fall out, everyday burglary, sexual indiscretion, and children caught up in the law. They are sometimes shocking and they are often heart-stopping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe examines how she feels as she defends the person standing in the dock. She also shows us how our attitudes and actions can shape not only the outcome of a case, but the legal system itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor: Sarah Langford\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTrue crime\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished on 3 Jan 2019 by Transworld Publishers Ltd.\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Sarah Langford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57365026046330,"sku":"9781784163082","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/4125\/files\/9781784163082.jpg?v=1791414533","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.co.uk\/products\/in-your-defence-9781784163082","provider":"Belfast Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
