From the Bench to Practice
A judge reads a case to identify the issue that must be decided and weighs the facts and evidence within the framework of law and procedure. An advocate builds a case to present the client’s position persuasively, identifying what must be proved, what should be challenged and when. Experience in both disciplines brings a distinctive perspective to legal analysis, case preparation and advocacy.
