PERSONALITY

Likes: Work, Cars, Gambling, Working out, Movies, Whiskey tastings
Dislikes: Tardiness, Laziness, Failure, Messy Environments

General personality:
Fair: Liam is an extremely relaxed person, he is easy to talk to, playful and charismatic. He doesn’t really care about a person’s status or wealth so he will treat you the same way he treats everyone else, no matter how famous and wealthy you may be. He also probably won’t give a fuck if you’re offended by the fact that he treats you like everyone else. This makes him avoid the company of egotistical people or people that expect him to kiss their asses because of their fame or fortune.

Stubborn: Liam does things his way, he always has and always will. Trying to make Liam change his mind is the equivalent of trying to fight the ocean, it is basically pointless. The most you can do is give him your opinion on the matter and let him decide for himself.

Private: Despite being one of the best lawyers in his city, not much is known about his personal life. He likes to keep his love life a secret and doesn’t really share much about his childhood with people unless he has grown fond of them.

Charismatic: Liam has a dark sense of humor, witty remarks for days and can be quite sarcastic, but he is also well read enough to maintain a deep conversation on many topics. Yet despite his social personality he isn’t the social butterfly you’d expect him to be. While he has no problems with socializing, he doesn’t go out to seek conversation or company like most social butterflies do and he avoids the spotlight whenever possible. Instead Liam uses his charismatic personality to win over clients for his law firm and to make more convincing arguments.

Confident: Liam is an extremely confident man, To the point where some people call him arrogant. But his type of confidence is the calm and powerful type of confidence that comes from years of success and being good at what he does. Liam puts in long hours of work and dedication into his profession and as a result he has become an extremely confident lawyer. He actually refers to himself as the best Corporate lawyer in San Diego and most people he works with agree. He is calculating, Ruthless, and well connected which makes him a dangerous person to go up against.

Workaholic: Liam loves his job and spends most of his time doing it, even when he isn’t in the office, he spends time networking to improve his list of connections, doing research or working from home. This explains his quick rise to power within the law firm he works for. In just a few short years he has managed to become the youngest senior partner the firm has ever had, and his ruthless nature and determination make people think he will be promoted to name partner soon. However, due to him being a workaholic, Liam doesn’t have much of a romantic life, since most of his time and energy are spent chasing corporate success, he doesn’t really have much time to spend on intimate relationships. But he has been trying to change that.

Competitive: Liam enjoys competition which is mostly why he loves playing poker and other card games, he enjoys winning more than anything and this attitude is also what makes him so good at his job. He wins and that’s what has gained him a reputation as one of the best lawyers in San Diego.

Caring: Most people know Liam as a cold, calculating and Ruthless corporate lawyer that cares about nothing but winning. That’s how he portrays himself in order to inspire fear in other lawyers that oppose him, and even other lawyers in his law firm. Liam purposely suppresses his caring personality in order to maintain his powerful reputation. However, deep down he is a very kind and caring individual. He uses his powerful reputation to protect those who can’t protect themselves, he also loves animals and cares for the people that he allows to get close to him. Sadly it can be a bit difficult to get to his caring side since he masks most things with sarcasm or witty remarks, Until he begins to trust someone.

Picky: Liam is an extremely picky individual. From the cars he drives, to the suits he wears, the whiskey he drinks and the people he interacts with. Liam makes sure to surround himself with the best of the best, because he knows what he deserves and refuses to settle for anything less.

Family Members: Lilith Shaw: Younger sister(24)

Anthony Shaw: Father
Nicole Shaw: Mother

General History: Liam was born in a middle class household, he was the first born child of Anthony and Nicole Shaw. Most of his early childhood was pretty normal, but things became complex when he came home early from baseball practice and found his father in bed with another woman, back then Liam was only  14. Initially his father had promised to never do it again, as long as Liam didn’t tell his mother. So, Liam kept this secret from his mother and his siblings.

For a few months Liam’s father did as he had promised, He stayed away from other women and was a good father and husband. Yet despite all Anthony' s efforts to be a good father, Liam was always a bit aloof toward his father because he had caught him cheating on his mother. A year after he had been caught cheating by Liam, their father cheated again. This time Liam’s sister caught him and told Liam about what she had seen her father doing. Infuriated by the fact that his father had cheated again and that he had exposed his younger sister it it. Liam physically assaulted his father. The two fought for several minutes before Liam’s mother broke the fight up.

Liam told his mother the truth about his father’s infidelity and soon after that his parents were divorced. Since then Liam has become very cynical about marriage and promised he would focus on accumulating wealth instead of chasing love. Most of Liam’s life was spent on making himself one of the most powerful and well-connected lawyers in San Diego and this feat was accomplished at the age of 27, when he became the youngest name partner in his law firm’s history. Liam is now a ruthless, well connected and highly respected lawyer whose name would make any San Diego lawyer think twice about opposing him.
