<p></p>
<p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aiden pulled out the file regarding the land like any property he was gonging to build he would send his own team of surveyors before running over the figures himself “ each building my own team goes out to make sure the land is suitable there is no ancient history on the land or artefacts if that happened we would have stopped and sent in archaeologists as much as I am a businessman I do love history </span></i></p>
<p></p>
<p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Yes we mainly deal with construction but we do deal with the odd redecorating or pro bono work “Aiden raised his hand to his chin as he watched the lawyer “I overheard from the receptionist you are new to the city welcome to Evermore “ he nodded a little as he thought “ do you have any residence ? “ he thought if he knew it could be a way of offering a job.” as I can offer accommodation if you wish as Hale construction have many properties to buy or rent.</span></i></p>

<p>It had seemed ironic in some ways that the daughter of a criminal would go on to be a lawyer. Many had been surprised at the choice of her profession, not just because she had chosen law but because she seemed more suited for being a detective, actually getting down to investigating things and finding the missing pieces of a puzzle. Being a lawyer seemed rather tame in comparison, sitting in an office, going through extensive paperwork and then having a verbal and logical argument in…</p>
<p>It had seemed ironic in some ways that the daughter of a criminal would go on to be a lawyer. Many had been surprised at the choice of her profession, not just because she had chosen law but because she seemed more suited for being a detective, actually getting down to investigating things and finding the missing pieces of a puzzle. Being a lawyer seemed rather tame in comparison, sitting in an office, going through extensive paperwork and then having a verbal and logical argument in court. </p>
<p>A part of Astoria had certainly been drawn towards becoming a detective. She'd have loved to be on the field and figure and solve things, but a very big rational part of her knew that the real power wasn't in investigation but in prosecution. She had seen way too many criminals get away because of corruption in the process of law and although she understood that she couldnt single-handedly change the system, she wanted to atleast attempt to improve it in whatever ways she could.</p>
<p>As he handed over the file, she took a moment to study it. She'd need to look at it indept later, but for now, she studied the plans comparing them to the other file that was provided to her. "Could you provide me with the dismissal letter as well and the deed. I'd like to look at all the terms and conditions before giving any verdict on this." she inquired turning the page. "As far as I can see, the plans are in accordance to your previous ones, but it could all depend on the kind of land it is being built on and the agreement deed that was signed. Since it is not a skyscraper but a standard height building, we should be able to adress this case in a reasonable amount of time." Placing the first folder down, Tori picked up the second one before answering his questions "I just needed a change of scenery so I took this job. It's been great so far. Is your company mainly involved with construction Mr Hale?"</p> Aiden rose to his feet as he…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-10-29:6610746:Comment:4195092020-10-29T22:14:55.378Z✓ Aiden Halehttps://eternalcityrp.com/profile/Someone131

<p><br/><br/><br/></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aiden soon pulled out the designs he required he knew where the mistakes were in his mind but he had heard of Ms Belinski was an up and coming talent “ my company recently acquired the deeds to build on the old factory west of Evermore but our plans were dismissed saying that they do not meet the hse standards “ he placed the current plans in front of her as he searched for the plans of other buildings with the same design he had brought to life as he placed them beside the other plans “I would be grateful if you could run over the plans and if there is any condition on the building and if there is could we go through the plans to make them approvable </span></p>
<p><br/><br/><br/><br/></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aiden reached back into his satchel as he pulled out another file which he kept upside down as he pulled out his tablet quickly activating it ready to write down anything he “I hear you are new to the firm what brings you to this firm may I ask “ Aiden asked as he wrote the date down as he watched her “ the plans for the building are a standard 4-floor office with an underground garage for multiple functions for any type of office job from It to lawyer firms “</span><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/8092514096?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/8092514096?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a></p> Astoria hadn't expected to ge…tag:eternalcityrp.com,2020-10-18:6610746:Comment:4186642020-10-18T14:36:46.135Z✓ Astoria Belinski ~Admin~https://eternalcityrp.com/profile/AstoriaBelinski
<p>Astoria hadn't expected to get a job that quickly after settling in the city. She had figured she'd have to struggle for a few months before getting anywhere remotely to her old jobs. Interviews just weren't her thing and she often felt impatient and annoyed by the string of questions. Her nature had always been to showcase her skills than waste time talking endlessly about it.

<p>Astoria hadn't expected to get a job that quickly after settling in the city. She had figured she'd have to struggle for a few months before getting anywhere remotely to her old jobs. Interviews just weren't her thing and she often felt impatient and annoyed by the string of questions. Her nature had always been to showcase her skills than waste time talking endlessly about it. Lake had often heard her rant about her dissatisfaction with the entire hiring process. Nevertheless, Tori had gone to 5 interviews, had nailed 2, failed the rest and landed herself a job with Larson & Pratchett. </p>
<p>She wasn't extremely ambitious when it came to her career. She just wanted money to live a good life. But some days, like the case with the wrongly accused Plaintiff, brought out the real lawyer inside her and she'd go out of her way to see that the wrong is put to right again. She couldn't exactly pinpoint where this need for justice had come from. She hadn't grown up in exactly ideal circumstances, but perhaps seeing and experiencing what little kindness could do and how deeply it could affect, had made her a sort of empathetic person by nature. Plus, she had seen her father doll out injustice in spades and it made her want to help people who had found themselves in a similar position.</p>
<p>However, her job wasn't always exciting. Most days, she found herself sorting out the load of paperwork until her eyes began protesting. Her hours were crazy but atleast there wasn't too much in-house drama. Astoria found herself often avoiding gossip and drama, preferring to keep to herself. Plus everything with the faction was already enough to occupy her time. She felt grateful for her sister's presence as she'd have completely lost her head otherwise.</p>
<p>It was another slow day at work when Tori received a call from the receptionist about a man named Aiden Hale. Sorting through her calendar, she saw that he had an early appointment. Nodding her accent to the receptionist, she arranged her files by a corner and got out her notebook to go over the preliminaries with him. As he was shown him, she got up and held out her hand for him to shake, "Astoria Belinski. Good to meet you, Mr Hale. Please have a seat." Settling comfortably behind her own, she stapled her fingers turning her attention to him, "What can I do for you? Mr Browner mentioned that you required a lawyer but didn't get into the specifics of the situation" </p>
