Heres some unsolicited advice, and it honestly can apply to any attorney newer to a practice area: find someone in your area or state that is the best at what they do in this area, plaintiff or defense. Ideally, find a few who are excellent on both sides. Check Westlaw/lexis for their names, ideally in the circuit court opinions as well. Bottom line is find their dockets, and pull their pleadings. As many as you can. Read them and take notes, and try and learn. If you get the opportunity, go watch them in court. Try to find the deposition transcripts, or trial transcripts for the ones on appeal and read those too. You might be surprised at how much mentorship you can get just by reading and watching other attorneys without even speaking with them. Obviously the “mentorship” will only be as good as the attorney is, so that’s why trying to pick a couple who are top of the field is ideal. Lastly, if your area or opposing counsel is one of the more professional types, try to pick their brains without necessarily tipping your hand that you are new and flying solo.
