PRESIDENT'S CORNERBy David J. Ferry, Jr., EsquireThe Delaware WayIt is important that we remember theneed to continue to uphold this highstandard as we move forward. Allowingcomplacency to creep in will ultimatelybe the beginning of the end to the Delaware Way. In addition to maintainingour high ethical standards, we must alsorefresh our memory of the Principles ofProfessionalism for Delaware lawyers setforth in the Delaware Code. As stated inthe Code, the purpose of adopting theprinciples is to promote and foster theideas of professional courtesy, conduct,and cooperation. The principles alsoremind us of our obligations regardingpublic service and commitment to community.4DSBA Bar Journal www.dsba.orgOne way to ensure the DelawareWay remains strong is through furtherinvolvement in our pro bono programs asstated in the Principles of Professionalism and in the Delaware Lawyers Rulesof Professional Conduct Rule 6.1. Wemay satisfy our voluntary responsibilityto provide public interest legal serviceby delivering professional legal servicesat no cost or a reduced fee to individuals of limited means or to public serviceor charitable organizations. These services include, among others, activitiesfor improving the law or by providingfinancial support for organizations thatoffer legal services to persons of limitedfinancial means.While there is much to be celebratedwith our community’s dedication toproviding legal aid to those who need itmost, the true hallmark of our commitment lies in addressing areas that needimprovement.To adequately address some of thesevery same concerns, the Delaware Supreme Court established the DelawareAccess to Justice Commission. In 2014,the Commission issued a report onthe promotion of greater private sectorrepresentation for underserved litigants.“The same Commission issued a similarreport three years later, finding onlyeleven percent of low-income, criminaldefendants in the state have a lawyer.Among its discoveries, the 2014 reportfound that many of our attorneys perform pro bono services, but few providemore than twenty-five hours of pro bonoservice a year. The primary impedimentto pro bono service was identified as thelack of available or prioritized time topro bono services, along with a lack ofawareness of available opportunities andresources to providing and performingpro bono services.It generally goes without saying thatan attorney’s job performance includesoperating while under numerous demands for the limited amount of timewe have to offer. Though many attorneyslikely wish to provide legal services forpersons of lesser financial means at littleto no cost, too often our schedules makeit feel as if it would be nearly impossibleto properly prioritize pro bono services.Concerns about using work hours tocomplete the tasks already laid outbefore us in the normal course of business, coupled with the high-wire act ofmanaging a demanding workload witha competing life-work balance all mustThere are also many Delaware attorneys whodevote their time and energy participatingin civic, educational, mentoring, non-profit,religious, and charitable organizations. Thesegood works should not go unnoticed.“The Delaware Way refers to acode of conduct among members of the Delaware Bar. Itis often used to describe theprinciples applied in the practice of lawin Delaware. Delaware attorneys areknown for civility, integrity, and highethical standards. The Delaware Waystands as much as a testament to ourcommitment to vigorously representingour clients while simultaneously givingthe proper amount of respect to opposing counsel and their clients as a meansto ensure our justice system works bothefficiently and fairly. Though these selfimposed standards may not be easy, especially when others conduct themselvesin a contrary manner, members of ourlegal community know that continuingto uphold this proud tradition is whatsets the Delaware legal community apartfrom others.
factor into our decision-making just tofind any leftover hours to put towardpro bono service.The Delaware legal community offers an array of services and tools available to assist all of its attorneys. Onesuch service co-sponsored by the Delaware State Bar Association is the LimitedPro Bono Legal Assistance Program atthe Leonard L. Williams Justice Center.There, volunteer attorneys provide eligible litigants legal assistance by answeringfamily law questions for a few hours eachweek. Similarly, Delaware VolunteerLegal Services operates largely throughthe assistance of volunteer attorneys tolow-income community members ordomestic violence victims. In addition,Widener University Delaware LawSchool’s Veterans Law Clinic providesfree legal representation to low-incomedisabled veterans and their dependentsin a variety of areas.I am aware of the many Delawareattorneys who provide free legal serviceson a regular basis — often privatelyand without seeking or claiming anycredit for doing so. There are also manyDelaware attorneys who devote theirtime and energy participating in civic,educational, mentoring, non-profit,religious, and charitable organizations.These good works should not go unnoticed. That is why I proposed aninitiative to start publishing in the BarJournal a list of the activities of membersof our Bar in civic, educational, mentoring, non-profit, religious, and charitableorganizations. This initiative will acknowledge and congratulate those whoperform these acts of public service andhopefully encourage others to realizehow many things they also can becomeinvolved with and expand the goodpublic service provided by members ofthe Delaware Bar.of our citizens have access to a fair andequitable justice system.David J.

EDITOR’S PERSPECTIVEBy Jason C. Powell, EsquireRunning Uphill istockphoto.com/ monkeybusinessimageslike the twists and turns of litigation.Uncertainties may be around every turnlike your expert providing admissionsso helpful to the other side that opposing counsel offers to split his costs withyou or documents being retrieved indiscovery not supporting the narrativeyour client gave at your initial meeting.My son started running cross country for his elementary school thisseason. A mixed bag of good news and bad news occurred when Iwas informed that parents can run with the students at practice. Thegood news: I get a little unexpected (and much needed) exercise asopposed to sitting under a pavilion checking my phone and swatting mosquitoes.The bad news: You actually have to run during the practice. The bad news iscompounded by the fact that my son’s practice takes place at Brandywine CreekState Park, which seems to have the only hills in the state of Delaware. The coursethere is challenging because of the hills if for no other reason. Having never runcompetitively, it is difficult to provide advice other than the usual slogans: “Doyour best ” and “Have fun.”In preparing for his first meet, I compared his home course to that of litigation because in my mind there are many similarities. His course starts in an openmeadow with all the runners full of adrenaline, nervousness, and anticipation ofthe course they see ahead. The runners may glance to their left or right to catcha glimpse of the competitors, just as we may check the online biography and pastcases of our opposing counsel. Upon the start, though, Brandywine’s course headsquickly into the woods with the forest growth rising on each side of the trail andthe canopy shading overhead. While cool, it is a bit ominous and you do not knowexactly what is ahead for these first two loops through the woods. Again, not un6DSBA Bar Journal www.dsba.orgIf you make it out of the woods afterwhatever uncertainties are addressed,the runners are rewarded with a series oflong and grueling hills. This is the pointwhere my participation in the practicerun does not seem so wise. The funnypart for me during practice is when thecoaches — during drills — will instructthe boys (and the running parents) as towhat type of run this is: a sprint, a jog,an easy run, etc. When running up hillsmy sprint and my easy run are eerilysimilar. The boys, however, relish in thefact that their home course, contrary totheir opponents’ courses, is filled withhills and feared among the runningcommunity. The runners have to digdeep and use every ounce of energy andstamina in order to surmount the hills.Have you ever viewed or participated inan oral argument when the judge maynot be seeing things your way? Likewise,you need to dig deep, practice, and refineyour persuasive skills in order to get yourpoints across and, hopefully, adopted.The finish. I cannot imagine whatit must be like for an eight-year-oldto see the finish line of his first crosscountry race. The excitement of finishing and being rewarded with either anindividual medal or team victory can
easily overshadow the hills, sprainedankles, and running in the heat. Butthe practice is what brings about theresult. Practicing your presentation andrefining your pleadings and learningfrom past mistakes all contribute to thesuccess you can garner for your clients.No matter how grueling litigation canbe, those memories of the hard work andpreparation become gratifying when youget a positive outcome for your client.Seeing a reported decision about one ofyour cases is, on the surface, one type of“medal” we can receive but, mostly, it isthe gratitude of clients in resolving theirmatter. It does not always happen andgratitude is not always forthcoming but,when it does, it makes the practice wellworth it. Whatever the outcome though,in litigation or a cross country race, youbuild muscle and learn something aboutyour strength and abilities that will onlyhelp you in the future.behind the flock of runners and alwaysstay behind the last of the bunch tomake sure they do not get lost in thetrails or otherwise need assistance.

TIPS ON TECHNOLOGYBy Richard K. Herrmann, EsquireA Blueprint for a User FriendlyNon-Jury High-Tech CourtroomThe Current State of CourtroomTechnologyPractically every jurisdiction now hasa high-tech courtroom. These courtroomsare typically used well in large cases justifying the expense of a litigation supportvendor or for a select number of lawyerswho have personally mastered the artof presenting courtroom graphics. As aresult, most high-tech courtrooms havebeen designed for reasonably sophisticateduse. Computers and monitors are wiredtogether with cables or adaptors availableto permit lawyers, or their litigation support vendors, to connect laptops to thepresentation platform. The presentationsare made using PowerPoint or more sophisticated applications such as Sanctionor Trial Director. Switches control whichlaptop is presenting. Electronic or papercopies of the presentations are preparedin advance for submission to the judge.The technology very often is tuckedaway when the courtroom is in use for themore mundane, everyday civil or misdemeanor hearing or trial. And, that makessense. The technology in most of thesecourtrooms is complicated. It requirespractice and planning. You just cannot expect a lawyer to spend the time necessaryin preparing a graphic presentation unlessthe dollar value of the matter, or the importance of the legal issue, depends on it.However, even the typical hearingpresents evidentiary issues requiring afresh look at courtroom presentationprocedures.
