Regular readers know that I am a Max Kennerly fan. He does it again with post titled "The Truth Self of The Plaintiff’s Trial Lawyer."
An excerpt:
Trial lawyers walk into court with plans, backup plans, and with training and experience in various techniques and methods. Trial, though, has a way of knocking askew the best laid schemes of mice and men; it’s less a choreographed ballet and more a rough mix of strategic adaptation, technical mastery, wit, and endurance.
