"Pay close attention; don't anticipate or second guess; listen to your client's every word. Those are my golden rules. No one is closer to the issue, no one can better describe it or express the emotion of an issue. Complete understanding is essential for me to see all sides."
"I see it as my responsibility to be a rational, realistic voice, to weigh the consequences and ramifications of an action. Winning at any cost; no. Finding a solution in my client's best interest; yes."
