City scoundrel US lawyer married (9)
I believe the answer is:
rotterdam
'city' is the definition.
(Rotterdam is an example)
'scoundrel us lawyer married' is the wordplay.
'scoundrel' becomes 'rotter' (I've seen this before).
'us lawyer' becomes 'da' (abbreviation for District Attorney).
'married' becomes 'm'.
'rotter'+'da'+'m'='ROTTERDAM'
(Other definitions for rotterdam that I've seen before include "European port" , "city abroad" , "One of the world's largest ports" , "foreign city" , "European city" .)
