[aces-and-angels]

(from left to right) meet agnes park and jina davis- founders of park & davis ✨

more info on them below the cut:

---

background:

attended the same law school as eli byrne and sadie mcgraw + were associates at the same law firm early in their career

after realizing that management (senior partners) refused to promote any of them despite their hard work- sadie hatches a plan to takeover the firm for themselves

the takeover involved buying-out the current senior partners (and blackmailing one of them after they unearth one of the partner's affair)

eli's family comes from old money, so he was tasked with gathering the funds for the buy-out. his father only granted enough cash to take hold of two spots at the top

sadie betrays agnes/jina out of their pact to become named partners to secure her place with eli

ousted by their former colleagues, agnes and jina are forced to fend for themselves and seek work elsewhere

to quote queen bey for a second: "the best revenge is your paper"

agnes and jina split off- finding work in different sectors of the law, slowly amassing an impressive roster of clients

never quite makes it to the top of their firms apart, looked down on by their male counterparts -> they join forces years later and start their own firm: park & davis
