The Most Chaotic Courtroom Showdowns That Left Even the Judges Stunned

First Solo Attempt

This one lady was sacked by a large company, and for no ordinary reason, either. They had caught her embezzling money to fund a gambling habit. They had clear evidence the embezzling had occurred, and she did not deny it. Here’s the kicker: She sued the company for $300,000 for unfair dismissal. My sister’s firm represented the company against this woman.

The case was so easy that the firm gave it to my sister as her first-ever solo attempt. My sister screwed it up in the worst way possible. Not only did she lose, but the court also awarded the woman $500,000 instead of the $300,000 she asked for.  In the end, it was a good career move. The partners all knew her name and dropped in to her office, one by one, to offer their sympathy.
