If we have to file suit in another state, we always associate the very best trial lawyer that I can find in that state to work with me as a trial partner. It has never been a problem. The United States Constitution guarantees everyone freedom of contract, and there is nothing wrong with a citizen in one state hiring a lawyer from another.

One of the biggest reasons people go to law school is "because you can do so many things with a law degree". For most of these people, this translates as "I really don't know what to do with my life, and going to law school will postpone that decision for at least three years." Frankly, we couldn't think of a worse reason to go to law school, or become a lawyer. If your goal in life is to do something other than practice law, go ahead and do that something.

Many of them will be home-based businesses as well, and it's always a good idea to look as much as possible like your clients.

The death of the "solo practitioner", like that of Mark Twain, is greatly exaggerated. Thanks to the personal computer, e-mail and the Internet, solo law practices are thriving as never before. A solo practice can give you the freedom to manage your time, as you are no longer accountable to other lawyers and there are no "minimum quotas" for billable hours. You can work when you like, as long as you like. Depending on the type of practice, you may be able to do business from a home office.

Both parties are represented by counsel, but the parties and their attorneys agree, in writing, to attempt to settle the matter without litigation or even the threat of litigation. Both parties also promise to take a reasoned stand on every issue, to keep discovery informal and cooperative, to retain experts jointly if they are needed, and to negotiate in good faith.

This enhances their ability to work together to assist their respective clients when the negotiations become difficult or emotionally-charged.

Beginners (and advanced students for that matter) should establish a regular and consistent training schedule in order to learn techniques efficiently and not develop too many bad habits. In general, the more you train the faster you'll learn. Three times a week is a reasonable target for beginners to aspire to. Two times a week is OK, but learning is slower. Progress is very slow and bad habits become rampant at practice levels below two times per week.

Some people suggest taking this all in order. In real life, you pretty much HAVE to do them in order because if you can't hover, you can't take off or land without killing your helicopter or your spectators. In the sim you can do anything safely! Work on hovering, and when that gets frustrating, work on flying around. When that gets frustrating, work on hovering some more. Switch back and forth all you want, or just focus on one thing until you have it down.
