Compared to other job responsibilities of lawyers, appearing in court is an obvious task that can directly make the parties perceive and evaluate a lawyer, and even directly determine the level of a lawyer.

On December 28, 2018, I went to the People's Court of Luqiao District with my instructor, Director Wang Xinping. This was my second court appearance since my internship, and also my first relatively complete contact with the whole case handling process. The case is a construction subcontracting contract dispute, and we represent the plaintiff. As the defendant submitted evidence near the trial time, I was a bit hasty in preparing the case, which also made me realize the importance of time management and pressure resistance ability for lawyers to handle cases.

After the court hearing, the guidance teacher criticized and corrected my performance in court, which made me realize many problems that have been overlooked by myself but still exist:

The first issue is the details. The so-called details determine success or failure, and so does the lawyer industry. Although it's not my first appearance in court, I still have some minor issues with the details. For example, after reviewing the paper this time, I accidentally checked it, resulting in a portion of the evidence missing but not being found. I even made a low-level mistake of mistakenly writing the "offset" of the debt as "offset". This also made it clear to me that carelessness and carelessness in work are absolutely unacceptable.

Secondly, it is a matter of attitude, which often determines height. The casual attitude during the trial can leave a negative impression on the parties and even the judge, and I made the mistake of not carrying a dedicated record paper during the trial and not consciously recording it. And the lack of dignified demeanor during the trial, as well as subconsciously crossing one's legs, are all manifestations of improper attitude.

Once again, there are still many unsatisfactory aspects, such as not being familiar with the trial process and stumbling during the trial process; As an agent, I was eager to avoid the issue of slow speaking speed pointed out by the previous instructor when expressing my opinion, but instead became more anxious and nervous, resulting in being reminded by the judge to speak too fast.

The court is the battlefield of lawyers, and every aspect of lawyer's performance is crucial to the direction of the case. Although I encountered many problems during this trial, thanks to the guidance of my mentor, I managed to turn the tide and the trial was still exciting. However, I must deeply reflect on my mistakes.

I think, 'If you want to learn poetry, your time is outside of poetry', this sentence is the most suitable for lawyer hearings. Pre court preparation and a professional attitude are crucial. The majority of the content of the trial is completed before the trial, and the trial is only a process of showcasing the results of the work. If any case wants to have a perfect trial, it requires a detailed understanding of the case, even a thorough understanding of the case, and a careful analysis of the controversial and legal issues in the case. Lawyer is a career of Lifelong learning and pursuit of perfection. Every perfect performance in the court trial is a lifelong accumulation of hard practice, which is also my
