My last client of the night sat across from me.
An attorney and his client could sit on opposite sides of the table.
He and his 79-year-old client sit together at the defense table without other lawyers or staff members.
Once the representatives are positioned, the client sits and observes.
"I've had clients sit here and say, 'That would mean bankruptcy for me.' "
The two clients were sitting in chairs, looking as if they were too miserable to go to bed.
I am conscious of this every time a male client sits at my desk.
Her client was sitting toward the back with Janet, a counselor from the women's shelter.
The foot traffic was heavy; five clients were sitting against the wall by nine o'clock.
My first client of the day sat across from me, from us.
