Over the years I worked on cases with and against Joe. It was usually a lot more fun being on the same side! Sometimes this was because he got great cases, (at least when I knew him after he was established), but he was tremendous in the court room, maybe the best cross examiner I have ever seen. There was an article in Forbes some years ago that I thought captured him well. It included the observation that if he hadn't been a lawyer he would have been a great actor, that he had such a great presence. (My paraphrase).
