Rogue Lawyer Books in Order

Sebastian Rudd isn't your typical lawyer. He works out of a customized bulletproof van because his last office was firebombed. He carries a gun, legally, because the kind of people he represents tend to have violent friends. His only employee is Partner, a man who serves as bodyguard, driver, law clerk, and the only person Rudd trusts. Rudd doesn't believe in the system, but he believes everyone deserves a defense, especially those society has already condemned. He's the lawyer you call when no other lawyer will take your case, when the whole world thinks you're guilty, when even having him as your attorney makes people hate you more. The series begins with Partners, a short prequel that reveals how Rudd met his enigmatic assistant and why Partner is so unwaveringly loyal to a lawyer everyone else despises. The story involves a seemingly hopeless case of a young Black man accused of killing a police officer, where Rudd's unconventional methods and willingness to expose police corruption forge an unbreakable bond between attorney and assistant. In Rogue Lawyer, we see Rudd at his best and worst, defending a string of clients no one else will touch: a tattooed teenager accused of ritual murder, a homeowner who shot at a SWAT team that invaded the wrong house, a cage fighter who killed a referee. Rudd doesn't care if his clients are guilty; he cares that the system is rigged, that prosecutors cheat, that judges are biased, and that someone needs to fight back. His methods aren't always legal, his ethics are flexible, and his personal life is a disaster (his ex-wife left him for another woman and wants to terminate his parental rights). But in a corrupt system, sometimes you need someone willing to fight dirty for justice.
