"Only exceeding expectations is enough."
"Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbor to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often the real loser - in fees, expenses and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of being a good man."
Abraham Lincoln
