Working on Cases With a Deliberate Process
Using focus and strategy to navigate the legal system.
Attorney Nicholas Hart never passes judgment or forms an opinion based upon accusations or the prosecution’s evidence. Instead, he spends the early portion of any case getting to know the client and the client’s story. A criminal defense lawyer’s job is to tell the jury and the judge why they should believe their clients. They cannot do that without knowing who their client is and their entire background.
Nicholas Hart treats every case – criminal, appeals, post-conviction, civil, and personal injury – as if it is going to trial. He develops trial strategies and allows those strategies to inform how he conducts discovery, the motions that are filed, and experts that are hired.
Too often, lawyers focus on the “how.” How do we achieve victory? How do we apply the law to this case? How do we extend the law to give us a favorable result? But they often forget the “why.” Why should the court or jury decide in their client’s favor? Nicholas Hart’s process is to put forward the best case for his clients by not only giving the Court or jury the tools to rule in favor of his client, but also giving them compelling reasons why they should do so.
