Sari Friedman Lawyer
Sari Friedman Lawyer share top tips for being the best lawyer:
1. Responsiveness 2. Analytical skills 3. Good research skills
4. Speaking skills5. Listening skills
Responsiveness
This is an ability that not every lawyer has, which a lot of clients figure out about easily. All lawyers should interact with their clients, law partners, secretaries, and anyone else involved in a case. Putting off a discussion or not being readily available as often as possible can result in an unsuccessful case because the information the client wants to provide is important to the case’s integrity.
Analytical skills
All lawyers should be capable to look at any situation and analyze it from all points of view. Criminal defense lawyers have to look at the case from the view of the prosecutor and vice versa. All lawyers must be capable to take in huge amounts of information at a time, organize it and understand it on the spot. When a case is in session, curveballs will likely be tossed and they have to be able to understand and respond to them properly.
Good research skills
Acquiring trustworthy information online, as well as obtaining appropriate information in books can be a challenging thing to do in a limited period of time. Lawyers will tell you that when they went through law school, there were a bunch of research papers. A lawyer’s opinion does not stand up in court, so it must be endorsed with facts. That’s where the research and investigation comes in. Adhering to the research is the presentation and delivery of the information.
Speaking skills
All lawyers must be able to speak clearly and briefly. Many lawyers are comfortable in front of a massive group of people, but they lack the capability to form a logical thought that gets his/her point across. Another part of speaking skills is to comprehend legal terminology. Legal experts have to be able to understand and explain the terminology to the client. If you can’t understand your lawyer, then neither can the court.
Listening skills In order to thoroughly understand the case, all lawyers must listen to their clients. Without listening skills, the lawyer will miss relevant information. For the most robust case possible, the lawyer must understand every factor of the case and look at it from all perspectives.
