This unscrupulous and otherwise shady character is the only thing that stands between an enraged mob and its victim. But the Lawyer is by no means a hero! For the sake of his client -- be they Innocent, Mafia or Camorra -- he will use his eloquence and charming good looks to direct the mob's anger elsewhere.

Strategies
Two main strategies: 1. Decide which way to align early on if you're confident of what role your potential hangee will be (an arranged hang of an innocent by the dets) with the lawyer known, or 2. In the case of a clear mafia win or "tie breaker" situation, arrange to break the tie (to your own advantage of course).
When other roles wish to find the lawyer, they can be confirmed or arranged by asking for the lawyer to respond by asking for an arranged message, repeating a word, certain punctuation or so forth.
