Welcome to the 8th volume of the Civil Litigation Newsletter, published by the OBA Civil Litigation Section.
This edition explores big litigation and the stresses that come with it. While civil litigators have much in common with legal professionals practicing in other areas, we also experience unique stressors because of our unique role: it is our job to resolve disputes. This edition aims to provide insight into that role, and the pressures, responsibilities, and self-fulfillment that come with it.
The following pages explore this theme from multiple perspectives. We feature an interview with renowned litigator Sheila Block, remarks from another leader at the bar, Michael Eizenga, a piece about one of our fallen colleagues, Scott Rosen, and a substantive review of one well-known litigation stressor: limitation periods.
Warm thanks to each of our interviewees and contributors, as well as OBA staff and the members and Executive of the Civil Litigation Section, for making this newsletter possible.
