The experience in the Courthouse is always worth it, WIN or LOOSE. In Jamaica it exposes you to an entire different culture, and widens your perspective on life and humanity. Above all, you can learn about what you are entitled to or not while in Jamaica.
You learn how perspective as do people can be a cushion, or a hardened rule. Things, actions are translated r should I say interpreted far different than when you interact with others outside of Court.This can be scary as it leads to injustice. This is one negative especially when before a biased judge or unscrupulous lawyers.
In the end, do your best, as one way or another your cause will be vindicated in or outside the court, regardless of legal jargons, attorney tricks and unfair judges.
There are fair judges with nothing to prove, but to serve humanity.
