The Prick

Jason Hunters dwindling bank account is a daily reminder that Jason never should have left his job at a prestigious law firm to start his own practice a solo shop located in uncomfortable proximity to a strip club. Hope arrives in the form of Maggie Moxley a legal assistant who tearfully claims that Robert Spelkin III--her boss and the offices most profitable partner--sexually assaulted her at work. Looking to transform Moxleys misfortune into profits Jason takes on Spelkin and his powerhouse firm Levitt Bennett & Taylor LLP. Spelkin a man of unbridled ambition and aggression demands not only victory but Jasons legal dismemberment. Levitt engages Rebecca Trent widely regarded as the citys best employment litigator to embark on a campaign that will annihilate Jason his little firm and his client. Jasons only weapon is the truth of what happened that night. But the more he gathers evidence the more he questions whether Moxley has told him the whole story. Meanwhile Moxleys accusations initiate a series of events whose consequences extend far beyond accuser and accused creating chaos for everybody in their orbit.
