Combining nuts-and-bolts practical advice with inspirational insights, he guides us on the journey every trial lawyer must take, from the struggle to gain trial experience to the search for happiness in a career fraught with conflict and frustration. Along the way he addresses topics as diverse as common mistakes made by even the most experienced trial lawyer to the benefits of psychotherapy. The perfect gift for yourself--or for any other trial lawyer in your life.
