Brave to call attorney first (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

daring

'brave' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'call attorney first' is the wordplay.
'call' becomes 'ring' ('ring' can be a synonym of 'call'**).
'attorney' becomes 'da' (District Attorney).
'first' says to put letters next to each other.
'ring' after 'da' is 'DARING'.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for daring that I've seen before include "Risque" , "Courageous" , "Audacity" , "Boldly dramatic or unconventional" , "Audacious, bold" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
