Trashing opposing counsel to your client is a mistake.
It makes you look small and petty. It’s bad form.
It has the exact opposite of the intended effect. It doesn’t build you up; instead, it makes your client wonder about you.
Build them up; don’t tear them down.
You look especially bad when the attorney you called incompetent beats you in court.
If you can’t say something nice, say nothing at all.
