Remember How Great Your Legal Team Is
Having the right legal team can help you deal with stress and ongoing cases. You can rest assured that your case will be handled by an experienced, well-respected, and knowledgeable attorney. You can breathe easy because of the conversations you have with your team, the updates that you get, the guarantees you receive with every win in court and the knowledge they share about each legal step.
Manage Your Expectations
After a case is filed, the best advice I can offer to clients is to manage their expectations. It is slow. They need to realize that they cannot control everything. They can work with the right team to minimize stress and put the odds in their favor.

Find counsel that is transparent and encourages you to take initiative.
Counsel that is transparent and proactive is a key element in reducing stress during a case. You need a lawyer that respects your boundaries, who knows how to keep your informed about the case, and does not take too much of your attention.
Your lawyer or law firm must have the ability to take initiative and keep the wheels turning without you having to confer with them every time. This is what I call boutique service. It’s not easy to find it among legal service providers.
Try to be objective
When evaluating your case’s legal and factual aspects, be objective. This will allow you to evaluate all possible outcomes, including losing the case. Be aware of the worst case scenario. After that, you can come up with strategies to solve the problem if necessary. This will help you to reduce stress and anxiety about the ongoing court case.
You don’t have to deal with stress. Talk to your lawyer about this. You can reach a settlement agreement with your opponent if you feel that your case is weak. You can manage stress by focusing on the whole situation.
