Beaver vs. Beaver, a legal comedy

With only one pair of courtroom-worthy shoes and desperate for work, a young lawyer from the North hangs her shingle in Ducklingburg, South Duck. She is prepared for a long wait for her first client. Inexplicably, the first client calls straight away. The man who wants to hire her is a multi-millionaire. But why her? His case is "too complicated for the local lawyers," claims the client. The young lawyer and her crack team Hoppy and Raccoon are jubilant, expecting fame and fortune, or at least the end to their frugal diet of Ramen noodles. But when the Judge, the Lawyers' Bar, and her own client turn against her, the lawyer understands the meaning of "too complicated." For law students, pre-law, young lawyers with a solo practice, and anybody who enjoys laughing at lawyers . . . I mean, legal comedy.
