Esta serie se centra en Sally Baynard, una abogada perspicaz y poco convencional de Charleston, Carolina del Sur, que desafía las expectativas tradicionales del sur. A pesar de su privilegiado origen y de su divorcio de un juez prominente, Sally forja su propio camino como una formidable defensora pública y abogada de familia. Con su ingenio, encanto e inteligencia característicos, aborda casos complejos que van desde la defensa de asesinos hasta la navegación por espinosos procedimientos de divorcio, demostrando que es cualquier cosa menos una dama de sociedad típica.
For fans of Marley and Me and Katie Fforde's Paradise Fields, Lawyer for the Dog is Lee Robinson's charming, moving and funny debut novel. Attorney Sally Baynard is baffled when Joe, her judge ex-husband, appoints her to represent the interests of a pet dog - Sherman, a miniature schnauzer - in a divorce case.
Sally Baynard is one of the best lawyers around. In the years since her divorce from Family Court Judge Joe Baynard, she dedicated herself to representing the worst and craziest Charleston, South Carolina, had to offer. But none of the murderers, burglars, or angry divorcing clients compared to Sherman, the dog her ex-husband appointed her to represent. Although the miniature Schnauzer found his way into her heart (and brought his handsome vet Tony along too), his case was a thorny one. With that business out of the way, Sally is happy to move back to non-canine clients . . . until a probate judge asks her about a cat.
