Ever heard of the 'reasonable person standard'? Let me spill some truth—there's no such thing. And objective law? Another myth.
Remember, judges aren't impartial—they're politically appointed. Yet, the legal world nsists there's this mythical 'objective standard'.
Trust me, I've been through the trenches, explaining the hard realities to clients in both the courtroom and in business for nearly 20 years.
The bitter pill? Litigators can burn years and piles of cash just to persuade a Judge or Jury about what's 'reasonable'. At the end of the day, 'reasonable' is what the gavel decides.
So best practices in the real world, I pin down terms like 'reasonable' sharp and clear. No vague lines, no room for ambiguity in my contracts, documents and anywhere else you might consider "evidence"
Learn this now, rather than later. The courtroom is hell on earth for a business person.
