Suzanne ParkerHOST
So talk to me generally about someone that doesn't know what litigation could be.

Emmett HalleyGUEST
Well, litigation I've been doing, I started off doing the district court for many, many years.

Emmett HalleyGUEST
I won't say how long ago, but from there it graduated then to doing civil litigation.

Emmett HalleyGUEST
That means in ordinary layman's terms, it means trying to achieve compensation for people who have been injured as a result of whether it's an accident at work, whether it was an accident on a footpath, whether it was any type of an injury that they end up deciding that someone was at fault for it.

Emmett HalleyGUEST
And years ago, what we used to do, the client would come in and we would and I would give them advice as to what I thought about his or her case, whether I thought it was a good case, whether I thought it was worth going ahead with.

Suzanne ParkerHOST
Tell me a little bit about medical negligence and how it's a little bit different to the guy crashing into someone or breaking his leg, falling down a stairs.
