Mr. Underbridge is a Troll Lawyer, Snake Shaman and Shadowrunner (Sometimes you can't accomplish something legally, so you go Superlegally!). He also runs a company that makes affordable Troll-Sized and Strength modular furniture (Using Insta-Crete and pillows.).
He has a few Associates in the firm, a Paralegal, a few researchers, a few that run the furnature company and "Mr. Underhill", a Dwarf who used to be a Skip Tracer and Bounty Hunter. He can find anyone. Anyone.
Mr. Underbridge is a Level 4 Connection. At Loyalty Rating 1, you have his Business Card in your wallet/Comlink. At Level 2, you've done a run for him/done business before (For Trolls and large Orks, this includes buying your furnature set from him). At Level 3, you're a regular. And so on...

And the lack of a SIN means you don't get provided to you free of charge...
I caught that section of the advert saying "My company has various payment plans available for those with monetary problems but a real need for a lawyer" and just ran with it.
Then he responds back all nice and I don't know where to go from here. Any suggestions?
I got something that might work.
There's a niceness around him that you wouldn't associate with a Troll. And it's not that overblown 'genteel' kind that the toll comics like to do with the Cambridge accent and tea, no. Mister Underbridge is that nice neighbor next door (only he's huge, has horns and a handspan that can clutch a head like a baseball).
He is a lover of old pre-digital films and quotes them freely when nessicary. HIs favorite one when counciling his clients is ironically enough from a James Stewart film.
"In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me."
Of course he really does use shadowrun tactics with certain talented individuals but he never uses them lightly and they always have a certain Capraesque quality to them.
Just don't think he's afraid to get physical. Like James Stewart in "Mr Smith Goes to Washington" he can pe pushed too far, and when that happens he won't hesitate to ball up his fists and throw a punch, or hurtle some interesting spells about. He wouldn't have orchestrated the disintigration the Fiery Eye Gang if he wasn't able to defend himself against their more 'Hardcore' members at the end.
Twisting words around is the job of a Lawyer, BTW.
Or it could be something different altogether.
