"Walk the hallways and courtrooms of America's legal system in the
shoes of a top trial lawyer. See how the sausages of justice are
made, hilarious (and sometimes disconcerting) warts and all. Not
TV, the real thing."Robert M. Dawson, Senior Litigation Partner
(Retired), Norton Rose Fulbright LLP. Author, How to Win (and
Survive) a Lawsuit, (Arbor Books, 2007).
"Flying Gavels proves that truth is much more interesting than
fiction. The author invites us into a world filled with comedy and
tragedy in which participants try to find their way through a
justice system that isn't always about justice. It's an eye-opening
read." Catherine Houser, Executive Vice President (EVP) World Wide
(WW) at Paramount Pictures, MTV Networks, EVP WW Human Resources
ViacomCBS.
"John Cheap Doyle draws on decades of experience to paint a vivid
portrait of the all-too-human side of our legal system. Clerks,
secretaries, bailiffs, plaintiffs, defendants, litigators, judges,
politicians-even an occasional supreme court justice-emerge as
fascinating individuals with their own stories to tell. You will
not see the justice system the same way after reading this
book."David B. Watson, Notre Dame University Professor of
Psychology, Author, Mood and Temperament, (Guilford Press,
2000).
