-: I love trials.
I love being in the courtroom.
I love taking depositions.
I love sort of the,
you know, the battle.
That's why I like litigations.
And when it all comes to a head
and it's direct witness, cross examination,
jury makes a decision,
all of the background stuff kinda comes
to that performance,
and it's exciting.
I like also the fact that every project,
problem, case, what have you is different.
There's different facts, different clients,
different people, different personalities,
and so every day is something new,
something different,
and it's not just kinda the same monotonous,
I'm gonna clock in and do my job and clock out.
There's always something that comes up.
Now that presents challenges, too,
but that's kinda the exciting part for me.
As you get more senior in your career,
there is certainly more pressure
to bring in business.
And so when you're a junior person,
work comes to you.
When you're more senior,
you're expected to get work.
And now I have a fully self-sufficient practice,
which I spent years worrying
how am I gonna get this,
and you do good work and people continue to call
and that's how you build a practice
and build a name for yourself,
but it is always a challenge to make sure
that there's enough work to do,
and that you're keeping everybody
who's relying on you for work, busy.
