i wish i had been better prepared losing this case has made life harder for me

I would recommend to someone who was smart and has the wisdom to know how to be a voice for themselves, I was not aggressive enough and i feel my relationship with Paul seemed to be disconnected and strained and I am quite sure it was due to my lack of what to do.. I often cried after a phone conver...sations. i felt i was not the client that a lawyer would hope for. And although i lost more then this was all worth, .. I believe Paul could move mountains for you , And it is important you are on his level, understanding at his level, and lift yourself to the level he believes you to be ! i was too uneducated and quickly became lost and defeated .... . . As for my case, I lost and now have been sued for the surgeons legal costs,, "" So this has actually taken the wind out of my sails left me one step away from homeless,( losing the case has , not Paul ) I wish Paul the very best and i am sorry i was not more assertive to help him help me in what was a undeniable winning case. I learned much about myself as i spent time with Paul I thank him for his time ,especially the times that were not so good, He never gave up one me, I'm sure he thought about it !! thank you for being with me through this life lesson, i will think of you and smile, travel well....
