Re: trial defence
Dear Reader,
I am compelled to advise you with the words (paraphrased) of Abraham Lincoln, himself a great trial lawyer: "The man who defends himself has a fool for a client, and an idiot for a lawyer."
Get professional help, even in a small legal matter that affects your rights and interests, else you are operating, like an amateuer brain surgeon, in a dangerous field.
God speed.
Sincerely, J. Norman Stark
