I didn’t win very many cases in the Mental Health Clinic, but I did have one electrifying lawyer moment. The doctor was about to introduce some inadmissible – and very damaging – hearsay, and I objected. The judge sustained my objection, took the case under advisement, and released my client the next week. But I was thrilled even before I knew the outcome; no matter what the judge decided, it would have been a different case if the hearsay had been admitted. It actually made a difference that I was there. I called my mom right away!
