I have my first oral argument before an appellate court in Pennsylvania. What advice would you give?

Oral argument before a trial judge or before an appellate court is a very challenging and rewarding experience for any lawyer. It never ceases to surprise that so many lawyers submit their briefs as opposed to arguing the case in court. Argument provides a chance for lawyers to ensure judges understand the issues and correct any misunderstandings. Further, it provides both the lawyers and the judges an opportunity to meet and get to know each other.
