I always strive to be brief and clear in my communications. People seem to appreciate my direct approach, whether I’m discussing a matter with a client or presenting a case in front of a judge or jury. When I appear before an appellate panel, I’m not the kind of advocate who has to race the red light that tells me when my speaking time is up, nor do I take 20 pages to convey an argument when 10 or 12 will work just as well.
