You are an ambitious lawyer who, conscientiously, defends innocent people from being wrongfully convicted by the court... but are you sure? But are your clients surely not guilty? To dispel doubts, immerse yourself in the case files and analyze the course of events step by step.
Speak with your client - find out where he was on the day of the crime. You have a range of tools at your disposal such as audio recordings, crime scene photos, fingerprints, etc. to get to the truth. The interrogation will lead you to interesting, unexplored details of the case.
Talk to the policemen who were at the scene. Ask questions, commission additional research, but remember - it takes time. Be careful, every decision has time consequences - you need to decide which evidence to re-examine in the lab.
Move around the town and obtain information and evidence of the case. You have at your disposal places such as a police station, a restaurant where lawyers meet, a laboratory, offices and other places where you can find people useful in this matter.
In the laboratory, you can commission detailed examination of case evidence, such as: fingerprints on objects, surveillance tapes, photos from crime scenes, handwriting and documents.
During the trial, ask questions to any witnesses who are involved in your client's prosecution.
