I'm not sure, but you seem to.


I have to wonder, though, why you felt superior to someone doing criminal work. It's a much better way to start your practice -- you have a lot more fun, you go to court constantly, and in two or three years you get a lifetime of stories. Most of the best trial lawyers I know started their careers as criminal lawyers. They may not be as fluent with Lexis as you are, but I think they can pretty easily compensate for that feeling of inadequacy.
