How do you measure your success at trial?
If you’re like most attorneys, when you win you think you’re a great attorney and when you lose you think you aren’t. Bullshit. Losing has NOTHING to do with how “good” you are.

Why do you go to trial?
To win, of course! If we didn’t think we could win, we’d settle the case. However, believing that winning is the only acceptable outcome can really derail you at trial. You might be surprised to learn why. Give the podcast a listen and learn how to let go of believing that winning is the only acceptable outcome.
