“Articling in the Big City”
What is a piece of legislation that you’ve been the most excited to use when doing research and drafting?
The Series: Series 1 || Episode 3
” As a civil litigator, I eat, sleep, and breathe the rules of civil procedure. This legislation stipulates the rules lawyers must follow at various steps of the litigation process. It has been exciting to utilize these rules when formulating litigation strategies to settle claims and achieve the best possible result.”
What do you think one should strive for to become the best advocate?
The Series: Series 1 || Episode 3
” To be the best advocate you must first be a good listener. Attentively listening will allow you to clearly understand what steps need to be taken to resolve the issue. As well, given that clients turn to lawyers often in dire moments, lawyers effectively act as counsellors. Listening to your clients concerns is key to building trust, understanding instructions, and ultimately ensuring a positive client/counsel relationship.”
THANK YOU!
A friend for over five years and never without a smile on his face.
Keep crushing the game of law, Damian!
