Litigation in Initial Years...

For law students thinking litigation is slow or not working:

Starting years are honestly frustrating.

You sit in court the whole day and just watch.

You prepare files but don’t get to argue.

Half your time goes in small work that doesn’t even feel like “real law”.

And you keep thinking ; is this even worth it?

But slowly, things start changing.

You begin to understand what is happening in court without anyone explaining.

You start spotting mistakes before others do.

You learn how judges actually think.

It doesn’t happen in one big moment.

It happens quietly, day by day.

Those initial years don’t look important at that time,

but later you realise; that’s where everything came from.

Just stay there. It pays off.
