Divorce Lawyer - A Satyr's Tale (Paperback)


After a career of bad behavior, Peter Morrissey is finally caught. This street-smart, highly-esteemed New York City divorce lawyer, has been hitting on his women clients for decades, but no one has complained ... until now. The Bar Association is pursuing an action against him on behalf of a woman who says she was coerced, and his career and his reputation are on the line. What really happened on the night in question? Is Morrissey a sex addict, or just a man who likes women too much for his own good? Morrissey and his lawyer scramble to put on a defense that will save him, and the reader is swept into the take-no-prisoners world of high-net-worth divorces and divorce lawyers, where ethics and morals are in very short supply. In this courtroom thriller, expert witnesses shine a light on the dark world of sex addiction and violence against women, and explore the never-ending battle of the sexes. Fans of legal dramas will be fascinated by this fictional account of a man accused of committing a transgression that's forbidden by every bar association in the country. The story of Peter Morrissey's rise and fall raises important legal questions and eternal questions about men, women, sex, and marriage.
