Chapter 7 - Consulting The Most Aggressive Divorce Attorney In Buckhead
While Liam rested peacefully under IV fluids and medical observation, I made a single encrypted phone call. I dialed the direct cell number of Richard Sterling, the most feared and aggressive family law litigator in Atlanta.
Richard answered on the second ring, his deep, authoritative voice cutting through the hospital background noise. "Claire? It's past midnight; this better be good," Richard stated without any polite preamble.
"My husband Jeffrey and his mother Noelle systematically starved and neglected my four-year-old son while I was in London," I said evenly. A heavy, dead silence stretched across the phone line for several long seconds before Richard spoke again.
"Are you sitting down, Claire?" Richard asked, all traces of sleepiness instantly vanishing from his tone. "I am standing in a hospital room looking at my starving child, Richard," I replied coldly. "I want full custody, immediate asset freezing, and total corporate destruction."
"Consider it done," Richard vowed instantly. "Meet me at my Buckhead office suite at eight o'clock sharp tomorrow morning with all the hospital documentation."
