Description: Lawless by Kimberley Motley Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Both an extraordinary womans story and a nonfiction legal thriller with profoundly deep insight into the real Afghanistan. Publisher Description In the summer of 2008 Kimberley Motley quit her job as a public defender in Milwaukee to join a program that helped train lawyers in war-torn Afghanistan. She was thirty-two at the time, a mother of three who had never travelled outside the United States. Through sheer force of personality, ingenuity and perseverance, Kimberley became the first foreign lawyer to practise in Afghanistan and her work swiftly morphed into a mission - to bring justness to the defenceless and voiceless. She has established herself as an expert on its fledgling criminal justice system, able to pivot between the countrys complex legislation and its religious laws in defence of her clients. Her radical approach has seen her successfully represent both Afghans and Westerners, overturning sentences for men and women whove been subject to often appalling miscarriages of justice. Inspiring and fascinating in equal measure, Lawless tells the story of a remarkable woman operating in one of the most dangerous countries in the world. Author Biography Kimberley Motley is an American lawyer and former beauty queen who has made headlines around the world with her ground-breaking legal work in Afghanistan and beyond. As the first foreign lawyer to practice in Afghanistan, her high-profile cases have included her work in returning three British children taken illegally to the country by their father. In 2015 she was the subject of the documentary film Motleys Law, which won the Grand Jury Prize Award at DOC NYC, Americas largest documentary festival.
