46. I've learned lawyering and US legalities more through DU than through my many encounters and friends

Mon May 7, 2018, 02:23 PM

May 2018

I've worked around DC and have had dealings with civil and federal issues using legal representation to present my cases. IANAL.

This type of freely shared experiences in dealing with the courts is invaluable and I'm sure it will be gleaned in the future (as is all.)

Thank you.
