Law Offices of Robert Dourian

After 30 years of trial work we are still surprised at how much we love this job. We get to meet so many different folk, from so many different walks of life, and we are always learning something new and challenging.

The down side of doing this work however, is that so often you are dealing with people in a miserable situation. Their lives have been turned upside down by a catastrophe, that should have been avoided, had it not been for someone else's carelessness or wrongdoing. It's heartbreaking to see what some people go through. But clients don't come to you for pity. What they need from you, as their lawyer, is to help pick up the pieces, and obtain justice.

That is where the up side of being a lawyer comes in, because there is no greater feeling of acomplishment when you are able to obtain justice for your client. In the end, it is a basic human need to feel that you made things better in this life. We get the chance to do this every day when we show up at work. What more can you ask for?
