The 13 Trial Lawyer Laws at Millars law
1. We Dare! Be Bold!Courage is action in the face of fear.
2. Winning is the Result that Matters... We don’t let small things get in the way of Winning
3. We Level Up... We know who we are, what we stand for, where we came from. Leveling up means firing 30% of your past friends who hold you back and making new alliances that challenge you.
4. We embrace our dark side... it fuels a desire to leave a legacy and we say f*ck you to conventional wisdom and strict adherence to norms the masses subscribe to
5. Pressure is our friend... it propels us into the arena and demands intestinal fortitude
6. We Lift Each Other Up... we are a family of ass-kickers and we put group goals ahead of personal idiosyncrasies, pride, ego, and pettiness.
7. We work when others rest... we leave everything on the table. No other attorney outworks or out prepares us, chit-chat is useless, grunt work wins wars.
8. Logic and Reason rule... we do not waste time wanting things to be different, we make them different. Our decisions are governed by strict logical thinking, not what we want to be true
9. It is better to be feared than liked... Being liked is for the timid, being respected is for the powerful and we will never apologize for our passion and strength, but we are kind to those in need of help
10. We Don’t Take Ourselves too Seriously... We love the battle, the opportunity to enter the arena, we are not in love with ourselves or our reputation
11. We Use our Initiative... we embrace the scar tissue built in the battle arena and know an 80% solution on time is better than a perfect one too late
12. We Seek Adventure... we do not wallow in comfort zones with floppers... we are seeking the next challenge, the next big file, the adrenaline of the next win, the client who desperately needs us.
13. We give... it hurts... And we keep giving. We give more than we get. We are Trial Warriors, not comfort seekers as pain is simply weakness leaving the body
My Mission, My Men, then Myself (original)
Our Clients, Our Community, then Our Comfort
