In a new client, a reliable respectful and hopefully someone with a great sense of humor who can also enjoy relaxing.

My dream is that I never get so discouraged that I lose my sense of humor! Without a sense of humor and the ability to look at yourself and laugh, life becomes a mundane obligation instead of an inspiration!

I realize that I will not be typical in my answer, but yes, oh Yes, I have fallen in love with a client, and even gone so far as to marry not one, but two of my clients! Sadly, the first gentleman passed away and in the second situation, we simply grew apart. He started in a new direction of the law and opened up his own law office. That is challenging at any age, but when you factor in the birth of a child and working together (I was the acting paralegal and had been a criminal defense and insurance investigator and became the firm's lead investigator) a 24'7 togetherness is just too much to handle. Suffocating rather than encouraging. To sum it up, why wouldn't I develop a romantic attachment to a client and them to me?
