Great Attorney Moment

This morning, I had two guardianship hearings. In preparation, I met with a very sweet Down Syndrome girl named Allie. We were having a good conversation about guardianship and Allie's favorite iPad game when, out of no where, she declared, "You're cute." I thanked her for her kind (very kind) words and we continued our conversation. That little comment -- one which would be normally considered socially inappropriate -- was a ray of sweet sunshine. It was, without much doubt, the best moment of my career as an attorney.
