00:00:03 hi Barry Goldberg here again clients ask what should they expect when they go to court with their lawyer in their case well first of all you want to dress appropriately talk to your lawyer about how fancy or or dress down they want you to be I like my clients to be comfortable and knowledgeable about what’s going to happen in court often times depending on whether it’s a hearing or the trial itself the client doesn’t get to talk a whole lot until they get on the stand and actually testify under oath in the meantime they
00:00:34 need to be attentive a lot of clients will write notes but they’re not supposed to speak during the trial if they are not the witness in addition they shouldn’t show facial um expressions like surprise or upset or exasperation because it might be misinterpreted by the judge or jury so you have to talk to your lawyer what kind of client does he or she want you to be when you’re in court and so if you get good instruction you’ll feel comfortable in court and it’s really not that scary until you have to go up and
00:01:07 testify under oath if you have questions about what it’s like being in court give me a call
