Analysing
the legal world is not so easy. There are experts who have sharp insight and
detailed knowledge about the law and order of the land, and then there are
experts who have the best legal minds in the industry, but are unable to
explain things to the layman in a simple and easy to understand language.
So,
how to strike the right balance? How to speak well while providing the right
insights to the audience? Well, this is something inborn and only a natural
orator with legal skills can do this. One such attorney and on air legal
analyst who is known for handling high-profile cases and providing sharp
insights about the legal world is Karen
DeSoto.
