[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been a lawyer for 10 years and a federal prosecutor for 5. I argue in court all the time. I still get nervous, BUT I don't get paralyzingly nervous like I did when I first started out. A little nervousness is good, but not being able to sleep at night because you're so nervous about a hearing the next day is obviously bad. IME, it gets better over time as your comfort level rises and you become more confident. How do you feel after a big court appearance? For me, the exhileration of a good performance is worth all the stress leading up to it.[/quote] Same poster as above. Just wanted to add that I still am not able to completely leave work at work, but I don't know many lawyers who are very good at that.[/quote]
