Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER After leaving a fast-track legal career and going on a serious bender, David Zinc is sober, unemployed, and desperate enough to take a job at Finley & Figg, a self-described “boutique law firm” that is anything but.

Oscar Finley and Wally Figg are in fact just two ambulance chasers who bicker like an old married couple. But now the firm is ready to tackle a case that could make the partners rich—without requiring them to actually practice much law. A class action suit has been brought against Varrick Labs, a pharmaceutical giant with annual sales of $25 billion, alleging that Krayoxx, its most popular drug, causes heart attacks. Wally smells money. All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of Krayoxx users to join the suit. It almost seems too good to be true ... and it is.

Don’t miss John Grisham’s new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM!

    I love John Grisham books and for me The Litigators is his best yet. His characters Oscar, Wally and David are funny, heartwarming and real. I laughed until my sides hurt and shed a few tears. There was not a boring paragraph though I almost didn’t read it fearing a boring class action tale. Read this book when you have a little time because you won’t want to put it down.

    I thoroughly enjoyed reading litigators, it gave me a better understanding of what small law firms could look like. I will continue to read Grisham’s outstanding works because they contain entertaining moments as well as an education about how the legal practices function.

    The story was profoundly believable as real life ebbs & flows. The good guy…well he traversed the challenges with class & compassion. The truth prevails! I enjoyed the story & could hardly take a break throughout the travails.
  • An Excellent Read!

    Once again, I found it tough to stop reading. Also, the subtle humor injected made me gut laugh out loud - but then, that’s one of The more endearing aspects of JG’s writing.
