Litigation during stressful times
At Toronto Court Reporting, we have worked with hundreds of litigators over the last few years.
We’ve learned a thing or two from working with high-functioning, often stressed out professionals.
Litigation is notoriously stressful. Examinations for discoveries, cross-examinations, preparing questions, witnesses, you’re expected to be on the ball at all times.
Tips for litigating during stressful times
Rely on others when possible - you can’t do it all yourself. Book experienced court reporters who handle scheduling your discoveries and cross-examinations for you.
Delegate and ask for help. While some deadlines are set in stone, others can be changed. Due to covid-19, many unexpected issues may arise. Ask for help if you need it.
Look after your mental wellbeing. You can’t litigate well if you’re not feeling healthy and happy - take time to look after yourself. Get away from the computer and get outside!
