Donald Lam
Gender: Male
Although a capable lawyer, Lam is unpopular with both the police and his colleagues. There is no evidence or witness statements that he cannot distort in one way or another. He is employed by the tough private detective Bertha Cool. They make up a formidable pair in a series of light-hearted mystery novels by A. A. Fair (pen name for Erle Stanley Gardner).
