Personal Injury Solicitors: An Alternative to Lying

One option, if you are one of our countries’ personal injury solicitors, that you can make use of whenever you are tempted to invent the facts of your case in order to expedite your victory is to dissuade yourself from doing so and instead exaggerate the facts that work for you and to keep silent about those that do not.

For example, you can emphasize the importance of one case by consistently and constantly mentioning it to the courts. This strategy, according to the great Roman orator Cicero, has the advantage of swelling that fact’s importance in the hearer’s mind, and so will, by its size, block whatever other facts work against you. You must use such a suggestion with caution, however, for if done too much and too frequently, you can belie your original aim of persuading the courts by rousing their suspicion. You can exaggerate a certain fact in a subtle way too. You can drop hints or insinuations, for instance, instead of telling facts outright.

For those facts that work against you, you can choose to keep silent over them and quickly pass them over. Thus, Demosthenes, on his speech “On the Crown,” relegated the legal points against him in the middle of his speech, and quickly dismissed them, knowing that it is on those points that he is most vulnerable.
