Raging DAD!

• Sometimes a parent doesn't respect a teen, even when that teen represents the court.
• Sometimes a client's parents can hurt their own case by treating members of the court poorly.
• It can be scary to be yelled at by someone else's parent even when you hold the power over their kid's case in front of the the court. But, when you're scared of someone else's dad, your composure can go.
• Regardless of a kid's dad, being a likable defendant helps you're case a lot.
