1
Before we get started, I'd like to point out these interviews are normally for us to quickly approve standard applicants to the bar.
2
However, Mr. Ross is no standard applicant.
3
Therefore, we will convene for as long as it takes before ruling on his application.
4
Now.
5
Mr. Chairman, if I may, last winter, Mr. Ross pled guilty to defrauding the citizens of New York.
6
Therefore, I propose we reject his application right now, because Mr. Ross is a felon, and the New York bar does not accept felons.
7
Mr. Chairman, with all due respect, to the new board member, you do.
8
Not only does the bar accept felons, but years ago, this very committee admitted Neil Wisner, a man who spent years in prison for attempted murder.
9
Now, Miss Gibbs may think my crime is worse than attempted murder, but I don't think it's worth throwing away 140 years of precedent by not even allowing me to make my case.
10
I guess what I'm saying is not only do I admit what I did,
11
But I regret it with every fiber of my being.
12
And I'd like to apologize to my clients, my former colleagues, and finally to the fraternity of men and women
13
that I have wanted to be a member of since I was a child.
14
Well, that was a moving statement.
15
I just have one question.
16
If you regret what you did so much, why weren't you willing to serve your full sentence?
17
I wasn't unwilling.
18
I was offered a deal to help convict a known criminal and I took it.
19
You were offered a deal to get out early and you took it.
20
I protected an innocent man.
21
What you did was insinuate yourself into your roommate's life, gain his trust and pretend to be his friend.
22
True or false?
23
You're taking it out of context.
24
The context is you portrayed yourself as one thing when really you were another, which is what you did the entire time you pretended to be an attorney.
25
And what I believe you are doing to this body right now.
26
Mr. Chairman, if she's going to impugn his character while he's speaking, then he's entitled to let someone else speak for him.
27
This isn't a trial.
28
We don't allow character witnesses here.
29
Actually, you do.
30
Article 416A.
31
Applicants are allowed a witness as a rebuttal for an accusation leveled by a committee member.
32
That article hasn't been cited in 30 years.
33
Maybe that's because no applicant has ever had to stand before the person who put them away.
34
You make a point.
35
We'll pick this up first thing in the morning with your witness.
36
Thank you.
37
Rachel, that was exactly what I needed.
38
If you hadn't done that...
39
I know, but right now I'm more concerned with it that she's turning them against you.
40
Which means even after Harvey kicks her off, Seidel's job isn't gonna be that much harder.
41
We only have one shot at having someone speak for me.
42
Mike, come on.
43
We gotta get back to the office and start going through everyone it could be.
44
We'll make a list of pros and cons.
45
Rachel, I know who it is.
46
When I first met Mike Ross, I thought he was like every other criminal I work with.
47
An entitled fraud who spent his life cutting corners.
48
But I'm here to tell you, he went in prison, one man, and he walked out another.
49
And in my professional opinion, he has the integrity to serve his community as a lawyer.
50
Well, I don't doubt your sincerity, Mr. Rowe.
51
Just because he was able to fool you doesn't mean he's going to be able to fool this board.
52
It's Dr. Roe.
53
And I'm glad you were the one who responded to my statement.
54
And why is that?
55
Because you tried to paint a false picture of his release.
56
And I'm here to set the record straight.
57
The record is straight.
58
And you're not qualified to talk about the deal that he made.
59
No, we're going to hear this.
60
Thank you.
61
It's true Mr. Ross entered into an early release agreement.
62
But it's also true that he stayed in longer than he had to to keep his cellmate safe.
63
And while he was there, he risked his own life to prevent a violent man from falsely obtaining parole.
64
And for all we know, he did that for self-serving reasons.
65
And for all I know, that's what you're doing right now.
66
You're out of line.
67
I'm not the one under examination here.
68
Neither am I.
69
I am a prison psychologist.
70
And in my experience, self-serving men do not risk their lives to help people.
71
I don't call defrauding your fellow man helping people.
72
And I certainly don't call it having integrity.
73
With all due respect, ma'am, I'm done wasting my breath on you.
74
Because the purpose of this hearing was to determine if Mike Ross had reformed.
75
But you don't seem to be interested in that because you've already made your mind up.
76
Maybe I have.
77
Then maybe you shouldn't be on this committee.
78
Because as I said, in my professional opinion, the world could use a lawyer like Mike Ross.
79
And if you're looking for my personal opinion, he has more integrity in his little finger than you have in your whole body.
80
Mr. Ross, we are prepared to hear your final statement.
81
Before we do, I have one last question.
82
Mr. Ross, you say you're a changed man and you care about the truth,
83
but I want to know if you're capable of telling the truth.
84
So I'm going to ask you a question, and I suggest that you consider your answer very carefully, because as far as I'm concerned, your answer will determine whether or not you become a lawyer.
85
During your time at Pearson Spector Lit, did anyone there have knowledge of the fact that you were a fraud?
86
Mr. Ross, did anyone else know?
87
I knew.
88
And if you're looking for a scalp, you can have mine.
89
But I was under the impression that this hearing was not about my old firm, but whether or not Mr. Ross should be a lawyer.
90
I say he should.
91
It doesn't matter what you say.
92
He's already had someone testify for him.
93
I'm not here to talk about him.
94
I'm here to talk about someone else.
95
Someone else has nothing to do with...
96
I'd like to hear this.
97
Fifteen years ago, a young woman was arrested for illegally obtaining prescription drugs.
98
Turns out she had chronic pain and didn't want to drop out of med school, possibly never to return.
99
So she stole a couple of prescription pads from the hospital where she was interning.
100
A crime with a mandatory sentence of seven years.
101
But instead of throwing the book at her, the prosecuting attorney showed mercy, had the charges knocked down to a misdemeanor,
102
recommended probation, and sealed the records.
103
That's a touching story, but I don't see what a random attorney has to do with these proceedings.
104
She's not talking about a random attorney.
105
She's talking about me.
106
Just because I showed compassion once doesn't mean he deserves it now.
107
Maybe he doesn't.
108
But that young woman is now an ER doctor.
109
She saves lives.
110
And the world's a better place because you saved hers.
111
Thank you, Ms. Pearson.
112
Mr. Ross.
113
I don't think I can add anything to that.
114
I've made my case.
115
I leave the choice to you.
116
Then this hearing has concluded.
117
We will deliberate and let you know our decision by day's end.
118
Thank you.
119
So what do we do now?
120
They said they would let us know by the end of the day.
121
So, we'd wait.
122
Well, it is the end of the day, which means...
123
Doesn't mean anything, Louis.
124
Whatever's going on in there, Seidel's gonna fight like hell.
125
It's not gonna make a difference.
126
She's never gonna change her mind.
127
I think she will.
128
What do you mean?
129
I mean, that story wasn't any old story, and that woman wasn't really a woman.
130
It was a man named Joseph O'Neil.
131
And it was Walter Sampson's godson.
132
So she did call in a favor?
133
Yeah, she did.
134
Then we need to get her kicked off that board.
135
No, Harvey, we don't.
136
Because I didn't fly all the way down here to strong-arm that woman.
137
And I know the story of the wind and the sun.
138
What the hell are you talking about?
139
She's talking about Aesop's fable, which basically says that if you want a man to take off his coat, you don't blow it off.
140
You make him feel warm, and he'll take it off on his own.
141
That's not a strategy.
142
It's a prayer.
143
Louis, I already admitted that I knew about Mike, and I reminded her of her own compassion.
144
That's the best we're going to do.
145
You know they could disbar you for that.
146
In New York, they might.
147
In Chicago, nobody's gonna care.
148
Thank you, Jessica.
149
Don't thank me.
150
Thank Harvey.
151
He's the one that called me.
152
Seidel.
153
Hello.
154
I'll tell him.
155
Thanks for calling.
156
You're in.
157
Oh my god, it happened.
158
I'm gonna go get us some champagne.
159
Thank you so much.
160
Thank you for flying it.
161
How would I miss this with the world?
162
Thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
