[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have been a litigator for 25 years at DOJ and the only thing I think about my opposing counsel is how to beat them in the case. Focusing on attraction to them is not mature, not professional, and not appropriate. I would confer with a therapist if I were in your situation.

I was a DOJ for 12 years, but worked another office before that. When I was at my old office I had a case where opposing counsel was an exotically beautiful woman. I wanted to keep this case going as long as possible so even when they offered me a settlement which my client had told me that his office would accept, I refused to settle, insisting that we go to trial. It was only when they offered me half of what my client was willing to pay that I felt obliged to accept the settlement. I was much younger then.[/quote]

Wow.  I'm glad for your client agency that the settlement worked out in the end, but your behavior was really unethical. I'm glad you are no longer at DOJ representing the United States.[/quote]
