Inspired by Max Hardberger.
He took a naval scholarship to fund his legal studies, but was sorely disappointed when, after long years of service and studying, he discovered that the practice of Admiralty Law (and indeed, Law in general) was irrational, inefficient, and frankly, insipid. You paid lawyers a million dollars, for what? A mountain of paperwork, and maybe, at the end of it all, a judgment saying that your ship was wrongfully impounded. While your ship....continued to be wrongfully impounded, by people who weren't intimidated by a lousy piece of paper, your precious cargo depreciating in value, your customers writing angry letters, demanding their money back for non-delivery of goods. What was the point?
Hence, he set up his freelance privateering business. He knew his way around ships, ports, and the kind of chickens who worked in the industry. For half the fees lawyers would charge, he can get your ship back on track in a fraction of the time, no mountains of paperwork required.
