Synopsis

Most TV law shows are misleading comic book versions of the criminal justice system. One Through the Heart provides an antidote to such misconceptions and gives us an insight into what it’s really like to practice law day to day. It shows Ed Menkin trying to obtain justice for his clients while at the same time still maintaining a sense of sanity and humor. From the tragically grave to the grotesquely comic, Ed’s stories bring humor, insight, and sensitivity to an enterprise to which he has dedicated his life: seeking, providing, and protecting justice for his clients, justice for us all. The book presents a panorama of all true stories, from the profound to the trivial, which will engage and hold your interest: defending an 18-year-old charged with murder for a shooting right in front of the County Courthouse; discovering that a police lab chemist has made a critical error on a drug test that undoes a dozen cases; settling a neighbor dispute over a leash law complaint by arranging a doggie lineup; trying to satisfy a client who is unhappy about an order of underdone chicken wings; resisting the worst impulses of a racist judge. It’s all a part of a life dedicated to the law and told in a fashion that lawyers will recognize as genuine and the general reader will find satisfying and entertaining.
