For fans of The Next Conversation comes an insider's view of the Australian legal system, packed with hilarious true stories and useful life lessons.
As a criminal defence lawyer, Jahan Kalantar has helped people in their most desperate hour, from hardened jailbirds to accidental offenders, disadvantaged delinquents to undeserving scapegoats.
But on his journey from clueless student to white-wigged barrister, Jahan has learned that it's not always the smartest person in the room who wins the day. There are other, more important skills: like being able to ask for help, stick to your values, listen without judgement, know when to be sceptical, and apologise like you mean it.
In Talk Your Way Out of Trouble, Jahan shares his hard-earned insights through laugh-out-loud funny stories of his own triumphs and blunders, as well as those of his clients. Full of humour and heart, this is an insider's look at how the law really works - and why its lessons are vital for everyone, in and out of the courtroom.
