Save your anger for something else
Sending angry e-mails to opposing counsel is a tempting and dangerous proposition. Those e-mails are written in stone and may find their way into a motion from opposing counsel down the road. Plus, I guarantee when you re-read that angry e-mail an hour later, you will regret it.
If you find yourself about to fly off the handle, don’t hit send. Leave the e-mail and respond to it later. Go talk to a co-worker and listen to them when they say “just let it go.” Angry outbursts rarely lead to anything good, and most of the time make you look silly and even ridiculous.
Keep your cool and work towards building a relationship with opposing counsel—it will payoff in the long run.
