Added DiffLines:

* CompetitionFreak: Throughout Book 1, he is obsessed with the competition, questioning the rankings at every opportunity, getting annoyed at Quinn for getting ahead of him, and badgering Gabe as to precisely what will and what won't affect his standing in the rankings (even during the team bonding exercise in Chapter 8). When Sadie is ousted from her firm at the end of the book, his immediate reaction is "What does this mean for the competition?" (Gigi promptly tells him to put a sock in it).

* KarmaHoudini: Surprisingly downplayed. While she ''does'' get ousted from her own firm [[spoiler:(due to Quinn, Gabe, and Aislinn exposing her collusion with the BigBad)]] and made to sign an NDA to keep the firm from going under, she doesn't suffer any legal repercussions for her crimes [[spoiler:(which include evidence tampering and aiding and abetting a murder)]]. She might not have her position at [=McGraw=] Byrne anymore, but she's still out there...

* EvilIsPetty: Much of Martin’s resentment towards Quinn in both Book 1 and Book 2 stems from Quinn’s legal successes despite a distinct lack of Ivy League credentials. Ironically enough, despite his Ivy League training, there’s a ''significant'' amount of in-universe commentary to indicate that Martin is not as good of an attorney or a partner as he seems to think.

However, when Beau steals the credit for finding out important information in Book 1, Chapter 7, and Quinn tries to tell Sadie, she refuses to listen.
