This read is for curious people who want to see the wizard hiding behind the curtain operating the levers of our legal system.

In Flying Gavels, John Cheap Doyle brings us by his side as he surveys his 41-year career in the US legal system as a civil trial attorney. Many people think that civil law is dull, almost like watching paint dry- au contraire! Legal problems lurk in places we never imagine. We meet a cast of characters along this journey and see how they impacted Doyle’s career and long-term outlook on our world.

In this memoir Doyle demonstrates that being a civil trial attorney is a life-long exercise in believing the unbelievable, with doses of hysterics and fun along the way. Readers will learn a lawyer’s job is not only to win the case, but to help people navigate their disputes and give them a hand - or a shoulder - when it’s needed most.
