Abraham Lincoln once said that if he had 6 hours to cut down a tree, he'd spend 4 hours sharpening the axe.
Trial lawyers are all too familiar with this concept. Not only must we keep our axe sharp for the work we do, there are several axes that we must have at our disposal. And each of them must be constantly sharpened.
In this episode, we will talk about three particular areas -- or axes -- that trial lawyers must keep sharp.
The axes are substantive law and medicine, tactics and strategy, and presentation skills.
We'll talk about each of these areas and ways we utilize to keep our axes sharpened.
