[quote=Anonymous]I was hired coming out of a small private firm 26 yrs. ago because I had considerable courtroom experience, i.e., real first-chair time doing trials and appeals as a public defender in Seattle, and arguing appeals and doing civil litigation in NJ. I was a trial lawyer first, a litigator second [including the ancillary skills that 14:45 rightly mentions] ... As the Gen. Counsel at the agency said then, "we have a lot of lawyers here who consider themselves experienced litigators ... many of them have never been in a courtroom [actually trying a case] ... we could use your experience." I had much more real world courtroom experience than the BigLaw types, though I'm sure they'd write a better law review article than mine. [/quote]
