A: Usually we are discussing procedural issues so that whatever happens in the courtroom proceeds smoothly. Recently, I had a client think that because I was in the back with my opponent, we were somehow in cahoots.
Getting along with your opponent is not a bad thing. Honey attracts flies better than vinegar. Should I not get along with my opposition, a tough job already becomes unbearable. As long as communications between parties counsel is respectful and trustful, unpleasant matters to begin with, stay miserable rather than horrible.
This is a difficult and emotional job for everyone involved. Getting along makes it bearable.
