Chet PlebanFor the past 45 years, Chet Pleban has spent his days in a courtroom talking to juries, trying to convince them his client was right and the opposition wrong. He is a trial lawyer. Many of his clients are police officers who find themselves on the wrng side of the law. In addition to representing people accused of criminal acts, he also represents those who suffered serious injuries and whose employment was wrongfully terminated. For the most part, he has spent his career representing the underdog and fighting big governments or large corporations. Many of his cases are high profile. Some of those cases serve as the basis for many of his novels. Together with Melinda, Pleban divides his time between Florida in the winter where he writes and St. Louis in the summer where he continues in the active practice of law. In addition to his two grandchildren, Harper and Cooper, he also enjoys his three children, Mimi who lives in New York City, Jake who lives in Chicago and J.C., the oldest, who also practices law with him in St. Louis. In particular, an African safari with his daughter and a golf trip to St. Andrews in Scotland with his two sons, were some of the most enjoyable and memorable times of his life. Read More Read Less
