Litigation can be high risk. No matter how right a lawyer thinks he or she is, if you go to a Judge, there is an element of the rolling of the dice.
Often, after making the argument, the Judge “reserves” his/her decision. Sometimes it takes a couple of days, sometimes weeks, sometimes longer.
The wait can be, and usually is, excruciating for client and lawyer alike.
That is the situation on one matter I am dealing with. The client is anxiously awaiting a decision that we hope will summarily put an end to the lawsuit against her. I am anxiously awaiting confirmation that my view of the law was sound and that I obtained the result I strongly believe is the right one.
