Answer 1

The correct answer is Option 4.

Key Points

The original sentence contains direct speech which needs to be converted into indirect speech.
It is important to maintain the meaning of the sentence while changing it from direct to indirect speech.
The verb "said" is followed correctly by "that" to introduce the indirect statement.
The pronoun "we" in the direct speech correctly changes to "they" in the indirect speech.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4.

Correct Sentence: The lawyer told the client that they would win the case.

Additional Information

Option 1: The phrase "told to his client" is incorrect; it should be "told his client."
Option 2: This changes the meaning by indicating only the client would win the case, not maintaining the original pronoun "we."
Option 3: This changes the modality from "would" to "should," which alters the intention of the statement.
