*lookscankill!
appearance: Alex stands an even 6’’ tall, with a semi-toned body and less muscular refinement. Though he’ll work out when possible, he often doesn’t have the time so the only exercise he gets is sparse. He has chiseled features and a strong jaw that help his blue eyes to stand out along with his short dark hair. It could be argued that Alex is a metrosexual though this is something he’ll greatly deny. He has his daily morning regiment of his shower, shave, aftershave, cologne and depending if needed a brief style of his hair. His reasoning for this is appearance is anything; a client won’t trust someone to work their case when they don’t even work on their appearance.
style: Corporate is the single word to sum up Alex’s style. The only time during the week when he’s not in a suit is when meeting casually with friends for dinner, or on the weekend. The rest of the time (and the majority of the time) he is wearing a suit ensuring the suit, shirt and tie all have complimenting colors. His clothes tend to be expensive along with any accessories he wears (watch and rings), this is again to help his clients trust him as it shows he’s won enough cases to be able to afford such things.

general personality: Alex has always been an extremely smart individual who tends to bore easily, it’s due to that reason he loves a challenge. He likes to think outside the box as it makes him have to think more to come up with an answer. He’s an extremely zealous person who takes on anything thrown at him head on. This zealous nature doesn’t just come into play with his work, but also his private life. He is fervently protective of his family, assets and interests and would do anything to keep them safe, especially his younger stepsister Taylor.
He doesn’t quite have the same morals as other people tend too have. For him innocence or guilt is a sentiment not fact along with legal or illegal. He’s more then happy to bend the rules or break the law in an effort to get what he needs or to help a client. Alex has a tendency to do things to hold grudges or do things to spite someone, it was one of the main reasons he became a lawyer and he’s done similar on multiple occasions since.
When it comes to relationships Alex tends to be more of the type to have a fling, a quick heated romance before he grows bored and breaks things off, and they tend to be with younger woman as they are more passionate and not wanting a relationship. He does have a girlfriend, who goes with him to events for appearance purposes, and he’ll take out to dinner on rare occasion but it’s nothing romantic and all for show.

*waybackwhen!
history: There was no love in the marriage between Alex’s parents Stephen and Leona who married mainly due to parental pressure. Most of his childhood memories are of both of his parents in one of their frequent and loud verbal fights. It was a godsend for Alex when the duo finally divorced when he was eleven-years-old. The divorce was anything but amicable as both tried to bleed the other dry. Custody was first granted to his father due to him getting the house and the judge not wanting to uproot Alex when he was established in his school. Alex grew to hate his father who was barely ever home, always working and when he was home it was usually with his girlfriend of the moment who was young enough to be his sister.[/size][/font]
This changed when Leona hired a new lawyer Brian Roush, and within two months the teenager was living with his mother. Brian ended up being a regular fixture in his life, and by the time he graduated high school Brian and his mother had married. High school for Alex was hard, he was a strait A student, but often disruptive and argumentative in class as the work was too easy for him. He really didn’t want to have to spend another four years at University being bored in lectures and when his father found out he was angry, calling Alex a lazy idiot with no possibility of amounting to anything – just like his mother.
Brian took a different approach and talked with him about how University would be good for him as it was a place where someone with his intellect could thrive. Alexander decided to go thanks to Brian’s talk, and chose Law – just to spite his father. After graduation he started to work at Brian’s law firm, often working eighty to a hundred hours a week. This helped him to quickly rise through the ranks and after a large win when he became a named partner in the firm. It was around the same time that Alex chose to move and work from the Los Angeles offices where he has been working from since.
