(Out)Law is a powerful
and inspiring journey of survival and resourcefulness, exploring the
remarkable life of Alice Stephenson, who defied adversity to become a
beacon of change in the legal world. At just 18, Alice faced the
challenges of teenage motherhood and homelessness, yet refused to be
defined by her circumstances. Determined and focused, she embarked on a
path of education, navigating the complexities of university while
juggling her responsibilities as a young mother.
Having qualified as a solicitor, Alice had proven that barriers could
be broken down thanks to grit and passion, but her story doesn't stop
there. In 2017, she set out to disrupt the legal industry by founding
her own law firm - Stephenson Law.
(Out)Law is a testament
to one person's defiance of societal expectations when coupled with
drive and ambition. This book explores the struggles and challenges that
women and those whose faces don't fit the mould encounter, as Alice
stands against the norms of a male-dominated, elitist legal profession.
Through her journey, Alice not only reshapes the legal landscape but
also redefines what it means to be an outlaw - a rebel fighting for
justice and change. Taking aim at archaic traditions, outdated
perspectives, and an industry rife with discrimination, (Out)Law
explores how innovation, inclusivity and the humanisation of lawyers
are the key to delivering change within one of the world's oldest
professions. And, oh yes, how tattoos won't bring the skies crashing
onto our heads, either.
(Out)Law is the must-read story of one woman's remarkable journey from teenage mum to legal trailblazer.
