Hey! Law student here too, 1L though. If you haven't seen it yet, there was a scene in 'Raising the bar' (I believe you can watch some of the episodes on TNT.tv), where the defense attorney came across as very affable. Something like, "I'm not going to take long, since I know we've all had a long day..." I used a similar tactic in an election speech the next week and won.
Good luck & let us know how it turns out!
