His maverick approach to the law and \u0026lt;b\u0026gt;a client list that included some of the most feared gangland figures of the time - including \u0026lt;\/b\u0026gt;\u0026lt;b\u0026gt;the McGoverns and Paul Ferris\u0026lt;\/b\u0026gt; - ensured that he was always in demand but under the constant scrutiny of the authorities.\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;Now Jimmy Two Guns recounts the cases he handled, the strokes he pulled, plus his arrests, a high-speed car chase with the drug squad, his time in 'the cooler' for allegedly attempting to murder a cop and much more.
