In Safe Hands
Filed under: We’ll be doing fine this coming Christmas and next year
welve years ago I began covering EPO corruption. The coverage was exclusive. The following year (yes, within a year) I was receiving SLAPPs from the EPO and someone stepped in to help me handle this, on a pro bono basis. I’ve since then learned a lot – to the point where I can handle legal processes without expending much money (that I do not have).
That later led to my introduction to another solicitor, who I was told (several times) was the best in the country (in the area of media and communication). He taught me how to be a “little lawyer” because this way, for years to come, I’d be able to fearlessly handle almost anything thrown our way.
I think this approach goes a long way. A little bit of legal experience (and skills) can help people become self-sufficient and aware of their legal rights.
That’s not to say I can handle every legal process or area; not even lawyers can do everything, not even if they went to law school.
Specialisation means that one excels at particular area; with experience (longevity) comes greater strength.
