For law/legal juniors yang nak practice litigation.
Much of professional competence goes beyond speaking in court:
- Techniques: Drafting, strategic/procedural litigation (knowing how, what/what not, and when to file), investigative work, client handling.
- Legal knowledge: cases, substantive/procedural law, court practices, statutory interpretation, CLE/CPD in different areas of law, etc.
Advocacy is (arguably) the easiest part for most lawyers.
To improve? Focus on the other bits.
