Insightful and inspiring

As a young female attorney, this book spoke to me. But you don’t need to be in law to appreciate this book. Phenomenal stories and experiences from settlement conferences, some even gave me goosebumps. Hesha Abrams has mastered the soft skills that so many attorneys lack or lose sight of in the thick of conflict. I look forward to incorporating these tools in my daily life.
