The two engaged in a brutal fight where Daredevil found himself surprised by the man's brutal savagery and strength. Daredevil eventually seemed to finally gain the upper hand, only for the shooter to take out a pistol and shoot Daredevil in the head, knocking him off the building.
Unfortunately, the Daredevil story represents another example of how a layperson’s understanding of the legal profession digresses from actual practice. To be sure, let’s do a little, shall we say, legal analysis.
Writer/artist Frank Miller's influential tenure on the title in the early 1980s cemented the character as a popular and influential part of the Marvel Universe. Daredevil is commonly known by such epithets as the "Man Without Fear" and the "Devil of Hell's Kitchen".
Art by Bill Everett. Daredevil (Matt Murdock) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

One of the most exciting cameos in the movie comes in the form of Matt Murdock. Charlie Cox reprises his role from the 2015 Netflix series Daredevil and puts his lawyer skills to work as he helps Peter Parker (Tom Holland) out of a bind.
Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson represented Frank Castle in his trial that included 37 murder and 98 other charges. Both attorneys owed Castle the duty of competency and loyalty in their representation.

corporate attorneyHarvey Reginald Specter, J.D. is a former corporate attorney, one of the name partners at Specter Litt Wheeler Williams, the managing partner of Specter Litt, and a former Assistant District Attorney for the New York County District Attorney's Office. He is also the husband of Donna Paulsen.
In the standalone episode, it was revealed that Karen tragically lost her younger brother in a car accident they were both in. She was driving. The backstory fueling Karen was slightly unexpected as it had nothing to do with revenge. At one point, it seemed like her brother may have been a victim of crime.
Murdock revealed that their relationship did not work out, and then told Nelson he would stay at the office preparing their tenement case. Nelson said goodbye, and also that the girl was the losing something by not pursuing a relationship with Murdock, and then left the office.
The Punisher has always been blurred between the distinction of "good" and "evil" but is as worthy of note as any other anti-hero in fiction (especially given his brutal nature). He is one of Marvel's most popular anti-heroes and has appeared in a great many media out with his origins as a comic book character.
However, in many of the comics, and also in the latest Netflix series, audience members see Murdock practicing criminal defense and civil rights litigation to a certain degree.
His shades aren't like Cyclops' from the X-Men, keeping laser eyes safely tucked away. The red lenses just fit the mood of the show. The good news is that, if you're a fan of the red shades, you can buy them for yourself on Amazon. If Daredevil doesn't really need a reason to wear round, red sunglasses, neither do you.
We've seen Matt Murdock read legal documents by using Braille-printed copies, but the thing is, he doesn't even need them. One of Murdock's most intriguing abilities is his superhuman touch, which allows him the ability to read anything by simply passing his fingers over the ink on a page.
After a newspaper reported that Matt and Daredevil were the same person, things got very hard for the vigilante lawyer. The FBI thre w him in jail for his vigilantism, and even after he was released from prison, his enemies attacked his friends and family to get at him.
He was an excellent worker and world-class linguist but was fired for made-up reasons after he overheard people speaking in Latverian, as these were Hydra agents he had IDed. He wanted to sue his work for unlawful termination.
One of the major white supremacist hate groups in the Marvel Universe is the Sons of the Serpent. When people suspected Matt Murdock of being Daredevil but could not prove it, they obtained proof and used it to blackmail Matt. They wanted to coerce him into helping them in court.
After he was no longer able to appear in court due to the backlash against his vigilantism, he began training clients to represent themselves.
When Hulk was put on trial, Matt Murdock defended him. At one point, Hulk broke free and escaped, and Matt (acting as Daredevil) had to bring him back in, working with the Fantastic Four to stop the green gamma-monster. Then, Matt continued to represent the Hulk--a dangerous career move.
As a lawyer, Matt Murdock was able to get both justice and protection for his client.
Matt was supposed to deliver the opening statements for the case. Not only did he fail to prepare an opening statement, but he showed up to court late. This trial made national news and so Matt showed this lack of professionalism to the whole country.

Throughout the core Daredevil series, many characters have had an influence in Matt Murdock's life. His father, "Battlin' Jack" Murdock instills in Matt the importance of education and nonviolence with the aim of seeing his son become a better man than himself. He always encouraged Matt to study, rather than fight like him. Jack forbade his son from undertaking any kind of physical training. It is his father's murder that prompts the super-powered character to become a superhero, fighting gangsters. He was trained by an old blind ninja master named Stick following his childhood accident.

Daredevil listens to all Stick 's instructions. Then, suddenly, Daredevil heard the soft whispering voice of Stick, being tortured by Hirochi, instructing him to listen to the ninjas' exhalations. Daredevil does as instructed and, as a result, is able to knock out all of them.
Daredevil met Elektra outside of the Midland Circle construction site and let her know that she ruined Frank Castle 's case by threatening Gregory Tepper. She responded that she was following his own rules: you don't get what you want by day, you take it by force at night. Furious, he warned her to stay out of his normal life and, stating that Matt Murdock's life was boring, she agreed. Daredevil fought guards at the entry site, then she arrived after the battle, sarcastically remarking that he didn't want her help.
Murdock returned to Melvin Potter's Workshop and donned his newly repaired helmet and suit. He went to the location where the New York City Police Department had set their trap for the Punisher. However, Punisher discovered the trap and attempted to kill several Dogs of Hell members so as to distract the Police Department, he then aim at Grotto in order to kill him. Fortunately, Daredevil found him on the nearby roof and attacked him; the two brawled while the police shot at the Punisher. After a lengthy fight between the two combatants, they crashed through a skylight into the building below. Arising, Daredevil's hearing began to fail him again and he became disoriented.

I’ll cut to the chase. Daredevil’s secret identity is Matt Murdock, a Columbia Law-educated attorney practicing in New York City. Specifically, he calls the famed Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood home. The character is no flash-in-the-pan either. Daredevil has his devotees, and he was named by the ABA Journal as one of the Top 10 Lawyers in Comics.
Blinded as a boy by radioactive sludge, he was reared by a single-father boxer who was gunned down for refusing to fix a fight. He not only graduated from Columbia Law, he became the go-to lawyer for the whole stable of Marvel characters—from Spider Man to the Hulk.
Depending on which incarnation you’re dealing with, Murdock and law partner Foggy Nelson practice a variety of different areas of law in their small firm.
There is a certain temperament that is necessary to defend criminals , and it is somewhat of a one-sided coin. You have to believe in the system—and your place in the grand scheme—or the constant defeats and condemnation associated with the profession will eat you alive.
If you are only defending street-level misdemeanors like larcenies and DUIs, it’s sometimes easier to sympathize with, and understand, the person behind the crime. However, that gets extrinsically more taxing as the level of violence or depravity is increased.
Yeah, this was a real punk move on Matt's part. After the explosion, he knew he still had an apartment filled with stuff and bills to pay. Instead of going back and making adult decision, he made it someone else's problem and dodged responsibility. Imagine if we all decided to forget about our rent when times were tough?
Daredevil's moral code is similar to Batman's in the sense that there's a line he won't cross with criminals. We've seen how upset he got with Stick, the Punisher, and Elektra for how they've dealt with others, but it also shows us that he's self-righteous and out of touch.
However, in the early 1970s, Matt Murdock moved to San Francisco, and he was invited by one of his old law school classmates, Larry Cranston, to join his firm, Broderick, Sloan and Cranston, and Jason Sloan was quite the smooth talker...
Eventually, Matt was dis-barred by the Kingpin. He returned and he and Foggy were about to start up together again when Rosalind Sharpe, famous lawyer, offered them a partnership in Karl Kesel's debut issue in Daredevil #253...
In the meantime, Becky Blake had gone out and become a lawyer herself. She represented Matt when he was accused of breaking out of prison.
