Just Because You Can Take the Case Doesn’t Mean You Should
One of the most important lessons I’ve learned as an attorney is this:
Every engagement is an endorsement.
There was a time I realized that moving forward on a matter would require me to draft and affirm documents that conflicted with my deeply held convictions.
The clients had done nothing wrong.
The request was lawful.
But for me, proceeding would have crossed a professional and personal boundary.
So I declined—with clarity, professionalism, and a referral to ensure they were still served well.
What happened next?
God filled the gap—quickly.
That experience reinforced something I now live by:
Not every open door is your door.
Discernment is part of ethical practice.
And saying “no” in alignment creates space for the right “yes.”
👇🏿How do you decide when to move forward—and when to step back?
