Pros

As a project assistant, you will gain valuable insight into the practicalities of litigation if you are proactive and willing to ask questions. Otherwise, it's easy to passively put in the hours and still get a satisfactory evaluation.

Cons

A few attorneys who suffer from superiority complexes.
