Glad you enjoyed the post. When performing legal work, It’s usually best not to ‘rush’ through things. No pun intended.

When I was representing an elderly woman facing eviction in my law school clinic, my professor-advisor sat me down after reviewing my work. He said I had done a great job but that I could have done an even better job if I would have spent time just thinking about the case. I was really surprised by that. I did win the case for my client but that advice has always stuck with me.

Now I will often complete work but not ship it. I take a day or two to think about it and then go back and review to incorporate any changes I’ve considered. I find it to be a good practice.
