[QUOTE="pbyrne, post: 72710, member: 9824"] Hi guys - hope you're all well. Hoping for some advice on how to explain why I'm interested in litigation/disputes as that's the focus of the firm I'm applying to. I've spent the last 3 years as a litigation paralegal so I have a pretty good understanding of why I'm just not sure I'm articulating it well. My main reasons are you get more interaction with clients and I've found that you develop strong personal relationships quickly (I guess because they're usually coming to you in crisis), within my field there's a huge amount of variation so even though similar legal issues crop up the facts are always diverse and interesting. I enjoy the 'detective' side of litigation - even though most people probably find disclosure quite boring, I enjoy the the jigsaw-esque nature of how it helps to build a client's case, and I enjoy the people side of it outside of clients - working with counsel and experts. would that be sufficient do you think? Any advice gratefully received! [/QUOTE]
