Every lawyer has faced “that attorney” – the one who stonewalls, nitpicks, or thrives on conflict and confusion. Instead of letting difficult personalities derail your work, learn how to flip the script. This session will equip you with smart, practical strategies to stay calm, build resilience, and turn tension into opportunities. We’ll uncover communication techniques, boundary-setting and problem-solving to help you remain effective – even when opposing counsel (and sometimes colleagues) are not. Through real-world examples and actionable tools, you’ll learn how to manage conflict, protect your client’s interest, and turn frustrating encounters into professional wins. Walk away with tools not to just survive tough lawyers, but to thrive in the challenge.
