This is Marvel Comics, where the two superhero lawyers handle every single case where superheroes are on trial individually or collectively, and Doc Sampson once brought up events told to him in other people's confidential therapy sessions to needle and criticize Jamie Madrox. I don't think conflict of interest is recognized as a concept in the Marvel Universe.
Why wouldn't it be? Scott's served on both the FF and Avengers, and can prove at the very least that his daughter was attacked and literally lost her heart.
I very much doubt that a jury would be more sympathetic to a CEO suspected vs. an Avenger of good standing
In the MU, they have suits of armor that can fly into space like it was crossing the street. A DNA scanner that doesn't require surgery is nothing compared to that.
A CEO who's a pillar of the community with the best and most unethical lawyers money can buy vs. an ex-con hero who's never been one of the especially beloved or popular ones, and who's only bringing this up now that he's been arrested for crimes against the CEO.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

"Why did I go after Cross? Bastard stole my daughter's heart. Literally. Give me ten minutes and Iron Man and we'll prove it."
And so on and so forth. Even if Scott can't prove that Cross is a criminal, he doesn't have to to have a defense.
But this is Spencer, who can't write a character who isn't a losing loser who loses losingly.
Loser.
