First things first
The principles behind the work
Accomplishments are evidence. These are the ideas they support.
- Understanding before strategy
- No move is made before the record is mastered.
- Making complexity understandable
- A case that cannot be explained cannot be won.
- Details create leverage
- Cases turn on details most people skip.
- Preparing for what matters
- Composure at trial is earned months earlier.
- Teaching as a litigation skill
- Trial work is teaching under pressure.
- Technology amplifies judgment
- Technology is a tool, not a substitute.
