During my 1L year at @regentlawschool , my civilprocedure professor, James Duane, said this and it has stayed with me ever since. 📍His point was that #lawyers are trusted with life’s problems from people. Clients trust us with retainer monies and we oftentimes work on the #billablehour. We are really the only ones who know if our time is honest. As officers of the Court, we are trusted to never lie to the bench or to opposing counsel. If we cannot be trusted with the little things then how can we be trusted with the big things??📌But this quote applies to so much more than the practice of #law. It too applies to other aspects of life including relationships. 📌 As a #divorce #attorney, each week I am confronted with issues of infidelity and deceit (from both men and women). I certainly haven’t been immune to these issues in my own personal life either. 📌I found out this week that someone close to me had been dishonest about some big things. And it sucks. 📌 But all we can do is accept the reality for whatever it is and keep going. It pains me to see women (and men) who are going through their own pains from broken relationships let it take them down. It’s the time to find your strength. 📌 And whatever you do, don’t let it harm your ability to open your heart to love again, trust again or your ability to live a life with honesty and integrity. After all, that’s what really matters.🖤 #divorcemonth #iranoutofTs #letterboardwisdom (at Cari's Farm)
