背景介绍
看之前，知道这些就够了辛迪带着律师闯进迈克办公室，要接利奥回哥伦布。迈克先装惊讶，再用利奥的意愿和痴呆把她顶回去。律师抛出推定监护人、避免诉讼，迈克连连答应，却突然说另有客户，改约再谈。看点是法律套话和体面拖延。

本章要点
看完能带走什么- 学会用represented by counsel说代理
- 见到avoid litigation就知道不想打官司
- 听懂presumed guardian是在用身份施压
- 会用改约把硬谈体面地拖下去
常被搜到的问题
先看问题，再对照台词represented by counsel是什么意思
表示由律师代理。迈克说没想到辛迪already represented by counsel，是在点出这次不是闲聊。
avoid litigation怎么翻译
避免诉讼，也就是不上法庭。律师说we hope to avoid litigation，是礼貌施压：最好私了。
presumed guardian是推定监护人吗
是。法律上通常默认的监护人选。埃莉诺用presumed guardian压迈克让步。
she retained me和hire有何不同
retain更正式，专指聘请律师。台词she retained me是说上周已被辛迪聘请。
puts me in a tough position怎么用
让我很难办。拒绝时比直接说no软，职场和家庭都常用这句。
