May the Record Reflect

41. Slipstreams and Wormholes, with Rhani Lott Choi


Listen Later

The profession of trial lawyering has a steep, intense learning curve requiring years of practice (and “practice”) before you begin to feel like you’ve got a grip on it. What if you could shave years off that timeline. NITA’s Education Director Rhani Lott Choi rejoins the podcast to talk about how trial lawyers can compress time through wormholes, slipstreams, and mentorship. 

Topics
5:00   Time compression through wormholes
22:30 And slipstreams
29:34 And mentorship
34:22 A word about Parkinson’s Law
42:28 Signoff Question

Quote
“I’ve worked at places where you have formal mentorship, which can be great, but often that does not continue past the employment relationship. And especially these days people change jobs all the time. The mentorship, for me, at NITA has been so valuable because it transcends that. It’s not based on a job or a connection ... NITA just encompasses everything, through career changes, through types of practice . . . .” Rhani Lott Choi
