People in Profile

This is a first for Blackburn Legal,Tonight we bring you the first of people in profile and our first victim is Scott "The pacifier" Pearson.

To those who don't know the living legend that is Scott Pearson, Scott is local to the Gold Coast Where he started his legal career and has practiced here throughout times. After a long and successful career as a practitioner, Scott Pearson took the option to spend more time with his family and in place of handing the DPP their arse day in day out, Scott works as a negotiator for Relationships Australia and a professor at Bond University

It was in my finals days at Bond did I have the pleasure of meeting Scott Pearson, having murdered my Article Clerkship applications on the back of negligent advice from a career adviser I enrolled in the Professional Legal Training (PLT) course at Bond University so as to beat the articles requirement before admissions. It is at Bond where Scott holds the reigns as a professor of PLT and heads the advocacy division.

Having the desire to be a great advocate I took well to Scott and his teachings. Scott's teachings as his current students would know his most important lesson that there is no room for softness, tears or dramas. Scott Portrays himself as a tough man, the little general if you will, the Rambo of the legal world.

Over the weekend on the Friday I had the pleasure of attending Barristers Drinks at the Inns of Court which was a great opportunity to converse with the leading legal minds on the Coast and Scott Pearson who loves a cold beer as much as he does a heartless advocate was true to form and at the event. We both enjoyed a good deal of alcohol and Scott's evil twin that comes out after 5 to 6 beers was also there and he was good fun to. However I had the chance to converse with Scott's gorgeous and lovely wife who also attended. Being a hard ass myself who knows he to is vulnerable and has a soft side, I thought this was the perfect chance to talk to the person who knows Scott the most and a even better chance to get some gold on the old master, to see Scotty boys soft side.

Well 081 PLTer's the gold is this, Scott is apparently a very romantic man who endeavors to continuously sweep his wife off her feet. Regular are the occurrences where Scott will rush home with fresh flowers, cater for the kids and cook his wife dinner so she can rest her feet after a hard days work. Scott is also father to young boy and girl and my source tells me that Scott is even a bigger softie as a father. Apparently Scott will do anything for his children including moving mountains and Scott is determined to see that his kids never go without. From what I was told Scott's little fella can melt Scott to nothing every time whilst Scott's daughter has picked up her fathers traits and is to be advocate to fear in time to Come.

Other events that occurred at Barrister's drinks was that me and a former Bondy who is now a Barrister had a disagreement, basically he was dissing Bond and in particular the PLT course which I just came out of, So Barrister and Trainee Solicitor were itching to lock horns and I was ready to go to war. It is here that The Pacifier Scott Pearson steps in and negotiates a peaceful resolution. About 10 minutes latter after clashing heads me and that barrister went to his chambers and had a Denny Crane Alan Shaw moment and made up and continued to party, the remainder of the night memories involved Playing Air Guitar with Charlie Bagley to some ACDC.

But being impressed with Scotty's negotiation skills I say the next time we need to keep the peace in a neighboring country we send over General Scott, Imagine that charming man in his army camouflage greens, mmmmm its enough to make this straight man say oh mumma.

Anyway after deliberately smearing Scott Pearson's hard ass image before his students I think its only fit to leave with a bit of footage of Scott Pearson's fighting spirit against the crown prosecutors in his days of practice
