Communication Is a Two Way Street

One of the most important aspects I’ve learned about practicing law is having the ability to communicate effectively and consistently. No matter how solid a resolution may seem on paper, without proper communication, the implementation can go awry quickly. For attorneys, we must be aware of our client’s concerns and anxieties; walking a mile in their shoes can help alleviate worries and prevent a marathon’s worth of back tracking and extra work. No doubt there must be a balance of how much information is necessary for an update; in my experience, providing an update on an attorney’s position or view of the status of the case once every two weeks is a good way to stay in the loop and be prepared for any unexpected changes. Ample communication can ensure that trust is built and kept between a client and the attorney entrusted to represent their best interests thoroughly. Clients likewise should understand that as attorneys, we have a duty to them and their interests and will always act in accordance with those interests.
