You'd be *AMAZED* how much "calmer" a meeting can be when the
parties you're sitting across the table from KNOW that
you know your rights and that you will be happy to kick their
asses (legally speaking) if they try to violate your rights.
For some reason, this often assures a mature conversation
rather than a one-sided beat-down.
The "expert witness" factor (that the attorney represents)
also helps. "During the meeting at which I was present,
did you or did you not threaten Mrs. Smith with expelling
her son if he ever mentioned President Bush's name again?"
