The Garland Law Firm

The Garland Law Firm is a free-owned business founded and ran by Dr. Jeremiah Garland. We deal with all sorts of issues and will help you win your case in court.

Background
Before enlisting into the British Marines in 1740, Lord Jeremiah Garland attended Harvard Law School, in the British Colony of Massachusetts. There, he graduated at the top of his class with a degree in law and government, and was given his PhD. After he enlisted into the marines, he eventually found himself in the Caribbean, joined the EITC, and the rest is history.

Busy as ever, Garland has noticed the injustice occuring in the Caribbean, and decided he wants to put an end to it. Despite fighting off pirates, Garland has now found the time to establish his own law firm, the first the Caribbean has seen. With it he helps to restore justice to the Caribbean.

Attornies
The executive attorney is the head of the entire law firm. He/she usually represents the most number of clients, and has the most experience. The standard attorney also represents clients when the executive attorney is unable to or is absent. In bigger cases, sometimes one or more standard attornies may accompany the executive attorney in court. Everybody who wishes to join, though, starts off as an attorney's apprentice. They accompany the executive attorney and standard attornies to every day cases, acting as an assistant. After some experience, and the executive attorney thinks the apprentice is ready, the apprentice will be promoted to standard attorney.

Detective Agency
The chief detective is head of the detective agency, and gives the orders. The chief, as well as the standard detectives and historian, are responsible for going to the scene of the crime, and gathering as much evidence as they can to assist the attornies in court. The historian is responsible for recording all evidence, and keeping track of data (in-game, the historian would take a lot of screenshots). Like the attornies, all detectives start off as interns, and through experience, are promoted. The historian, however, does not start off as an intern.
