deposition or in front of a judge and/or jury, you do have people in your corner. People who have performed research for you and may have more in-depth knowledge of certain issues, people who may be observing the deposition or trial, people who can be sounding boards as you develop your strategy or opinion. These people can be very helpful and may be able to point out issues and nuances that you haven’t thought of. Tap that knowledge and vision, listen to what they have to say before you step into the conference room or courtroom, and keep those lines of communication open.
As a new practitioner, I hope you found these comments helpful and entertaining. Step out confidently and enjoy the “sweet science” of litigation!
