Well Catherine we don´t know about the extent and consequences of the case yet, so let´s hope it doesn´t get that serious. I wish the matter could be solved in private and the dirty little details never got to be made public, but that´s wishful thinking.
As for Nic regaining his inner peace and confidence back, only time, the greatest healer, can tell, but I bet he will move on eventually. He´s gonna need to be very brave, though. And very humble too. This is a lifetime opportunity to start from scratch, and reconsider. If he´s smart, and we´ve got every indication that he is, he will take it. I´m counting on him for that (as if he cares about what I think, LOL!)
Ah, life neve ceases to teach us hard lessons, huh? That really sucks, but on the other hand that´s the only shortcut to get to the yellow brick road...
It's nice to be able to travel about freely, instead of being restricted to one location all of your days!
I think it's a matter of integrity, conscience, accountability, for him, Nick's trying to do the right thing, he's trying to get justice for himself, set things right.
That attorney made Nick look like a bum, he stole his reputation, I'm sure it affected his career, he made Nick fight for survival, while he lived well.
it's not an easy thing to go through whether your rich or poor, he's actually a crime victim, what the attorney did is actually worse than a mugging, that would have taken place out on the street.
The best plan of action is to see if the attorney victimized any of his other clients, to prove intent, motive, he should sue for damages, loss of reputation, livilihood, his welfare and that of his family was put at risk, everything he worked hard for was thrown to the wind. he was left for broke, made a poorer, left having to beg for his bread.
At 45 years old, the fear of losing everything, must have over whelmed him. Not to mention the feeling of not being able to "support" his family, how the lawyer made him appear to his wife, his family, his friends. Can he gain that all back?
