Chapter 262(2/2)

So even if I understand what you mean, I have to tell Tim and Shelly whether they will always stick to your bottom line, regarding the other party's offer or whatever."

"Just tell them and let them make their own decision."

Chuck said calmly.

He knew what Harvey meant. Faced with litigation, even the prosecution was not without trouble.

Once the case is delayed for a long time, not only will you have to pay high legal fees and various prosecution fees, but you will also waste a lot of time and analyze the gradually healing scars in public.

And even if I have the advantage, I may still be overturned and lose the case.

At that time, the winner takes all and the loser takes all. Not only will they not get compensation, but they will also have to pay the other party's lawyer's high legal fees, otherwise they will have to wait for the defendant.

This kind of legal system is the key to ensuring that wealthy people can do whatever they want.

Therefore, as the parties involved, Tim and Shelly's family are faced with the prospect of receiving a large amount of compensation to end this nightmare life.

On the other hand, if you continue to fight with uncertainty and the outcome is unknown, you may live an even more nightmare life. You will probably make a choice that most people will make: compromise!

Suits lawyer Harvey must fully convey the other party's offer and compromise plan to the real parties.

"What did you promise them?"

On the other end of the phone, Harvey Suits guessed something.

"I just asked them, do you want Max Henson to feel your pain?"

Chuck said: "They gritted their teeth and said they wanted to, and I said that would be fine, and just leave the rest to Suits and me."

"..."

Suits lawyer Harvey twitched his lips when he heard Chuck referring to him as "suit" in a serious manner.

After all, Suits is the translator of high emotional intelligence, while those with low emotional intelligence can be translated as smart suits who wear suits and leather shoes all day long but don't do anything.

If it came from Chandler, it would definitely be a man in a suit full of sarcasm.

And from what Chuck said, it was Schrödinger’s cat.

"You've saved them from worries, haven't you?"

Harvey Suit reveals the key: "Is it worth it?"

"What do I have to lose?"

Chuck asked rhetorically.

"Money...ok, I understand!"

Harvey the Suit Guy totally gets it.

As a barrister, he is used to the "I'm rich, don't like money, and willful" attitude of rich people.

And obviously, Chuck is also one of them. For the sake of fighting spirit, he can cover all the expenses after failure.

You know, this includes not only the fees of their barristers and other litigation expenses, but also the expected compensation of 1.5 million yuan that they initially accepted the other party's compromise. The total cost is not more than 2 million yuan, which is simply unaffordable.

Even though he was used to seeing rich people not taking money as money, he was still refreshed by Chuck's rich and willful behavior.

After all, in his opinion, Chuck is just an outsider. As a public figure, he has not been ridiculed in public.

Even among those who are rich, few are willing to spend so much money for such a thing.

Of course, as lawyers, they all like Chuck's behavior and wish all rich people were like this, then they would really make a fortune.

Pearson Hardman LLP.

In a spacious office in a skyscraper.

Harvey, a man in a suit, shook his head and hung up the phone with a smile.

"Detective Chuck is really domineering."

On the secretary's desk outside, the elegant female secretary turned to her boss and smiled: "I'm better than you."

"Donna!"

Harvey, a man in a suit, glanced dissatisfied at his closest female secretary.

"What's wrong?"

The female secretary, Donna, is not afraid of him at all. She can eavesdrop on all her boss's calls openly and dare to directly confront him.

"Lawyers serve rich people. You are not as rich as him, so when you serve him, you are not as domineering as him. It is normal."

"Are you done with anything?"

Harvey is helpless in suits.

"Everything that needs to be done is done."

Female secretary Donna smiled and said: "By the way, Max Henson's new lawyer is here. Guess who it is?"

"Don't tell me it's Emily?"

Harvey, a smart suit guy, has already gotten the answer from the eyes of his female secretary, Donna.

"Yes, it's her."

Female secretary Donna smiled ambiguously and said: "This time you have another chance to discuss her tattoo together. I just don't know where her tattoo is now. Remember to tell me."

Harvey, a man in suits, followed the gaze of female secretary Donna and saw a familiar figure leading a group of people to the conference room. He also got up and walked over.

"Harvey."

"Emily."

Harvey, a smart suit man, greeted the female lawyer who was wearing a professional suit, glasses and a shrewd face: "How did you become Max Henson's lawyer?"

"Let me guess, you will definitely feel that I am doing it because of you."

Female lawyer Emily smiled charmingly: "Great Harvey Specter, everything is because of you!"

"Isn't it?"

Harvey, a man in a suit, smiled confidently: "Otherwise, I can't understand why you took on such a case that is destined to fail. This is not good for your resume. Or do you like Max Henson's poisonous tongue?"

"I don't know if Max Henson is venomous or not, but I deeply understand your venomous tongue, as always, but I must say that I enjoy it."

Female lawyer Emily didn't mind flirting with the opposing lawyer in public at all: "Let me explain, Max Henson is not my client, the radio station is! The radio station does not want a lengthy trial, we want to end this matter."

"Because the truth has been verified by Detective Chuck, and the two-year-old girl Jamie, who your client said was killed by her mother, was rescued."

Suit Harvey reminded: "Now your radio station's sponsors are constantly abandoning you, far faster than your radio station is abandoned by the times."

"As I just said, I enjoy your poisonous tongue."

The female lawyer Emily raised her glasses: "But our radio station may not like it, so pay attention to your tone, you can save your poisonous tongue for later.

Now let’s talk about the conditions, we are willing to pay 500,000 yuan in compensation to settle this matter.”

"500000?"

Harvey, a man in suit, smiled and said: "That was mentioned by the lawyer before, but now it's you. Are you no different from him?"

"Okay, 1 million! This compensation is already very high."

Female lawyer Emily said: "I believe your client should be satisfied."

Harvey, a man in a suit, crossed his arms and looked at her with an expression that was obviously not hers.

The female lawyer Emily looked at each other with her assistant and others, and then looked firmly at Harvey, the suit man.

"1.5 million, this is the final offer. Sign the settlement agreement immediately. It's just this chance, otherwise we would rather go to court."

"Unfortunately, my client will only accept the initial quote... followed by a zero."

Harvey, a suit expert, tried out the other party's offer and found out that it was as expected, so he was no longer interested in teasing him any more and directly told Chuck what he wanted.

"5000000?"

The female lawyer Emily was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Are you serious?"

She knew that Harvey, the man in a suit, would definitely open his mouth like a lion, but she still didn't expect it to be such an exaggerated number.

She had heard it said before by her former lawyer, but she didn't believe it at all.

5 million compensation, what a joke!

Isn’t the U.S. dollar a U.S. dollar?!

"We are very serious. The 5 million compensation is only one part. We also need Max Henson to apologize in public. Both of these two are indispensable."

Harvey, a man in a suit, looked at the female lawyer Emily seriously and clearly communicated the finalized conditions again.

"Then there's nothing more to say!"

The female lawyer Emily stood up directly: "See you in court!"

"I suggest you persuade your client to accept this condition."

Harvey, a man in a suit, looked at Emily, the female lawyer who got up, and said leisurely: "Otherwise, the result will definitely be even worse."
