Now where did I put that magic wand?

I can't wait for the day that I get to have one of these conversations with a client.

The Interpreter

Survived my first court appearance today, and with a mohawk, no less. Who says you have to sell out in order to be a lawyer?

I managed to get my LSLAP client a conditional discharge, with a speak to sentence that I'd been rehearsing for days.

His mom was so happy that she hugged me outside in the hallway, and then proceeded to hug the Crown Counsel.

I love what I do. I love translating "law-speak" into plain English for my clients and their families, and then translating my clients' stories back into law-speak for the court.

It almost makes me want to follow in this public defender's footsteps.
