i have never stopped getting a
00:06
charge out of helping somebody
00:09
if i can get into a situation where
00:12
somebody comes in with a bad situation
00:15
and i make it better that’s a charge to
00:18
me i
00:18
really do understand that and it’s
00:22
it’s like a i don’t want to say it’s
00:24
like a game but it’s a
00:25
clearly a competition for me i’ve got to
00:28
see somebody for the first time
00:30
and help them make their situation a
00:33
whole lot better
00:34
and thankfully i’ve been very very
00:36
successful
00:38
in doing that and i’ve and i’ve made
00:39
maintained relationships
00:41
with with clients if i can go on a
00:43
tangent this is one of my favorites
00:46
i had a client one of the first cases
00:48
that i ever tried
00:50
was an age discrimination case back in
00:52
the late 80s in fact the final judgment
00:55
in that case
00:56
came out the day it was a jury trial
00:59
came out the day my second daughter was
01:01
born and that’s almost 30 years ago
01:03
after that client’s case was continued
01:06
was finished
01:07
we used to call and that was before
01:10
texting and before email we used to call
01:12
every friday and talk about the the
01:15
upcoming weeks football games and talk
01:17
about those we did that
01:19
for a good 10 years until they passed
01:21
away it’s relationships like that
01:24
that are very rewarding to me
01:31
you know credentialing is pretty
01:34
important
01:35
to a lawyer board certification is one
01:37
of them that i’m particularly proud of
01:39
and basically what that means it’s not
01:42
only
01:42
passing a test back in 1994 which i did
01:46
but maintaining and focusing
01:50
on what’s new we have a very strict
01:53
um requirement of hours we have to take
01:57
for continuing education it’s it’s 15
01:59
hours
02:00
in our specialty area alone so that
02:03
doesn’t include other things that i need
02:06
as a lawyer like discovery
02:08
and things like that this is 15 hours in
02:11
my
02:12
area labor and employment law per year
02:14
that’s number one
02:15
number two i have been very privileged
02:19
to have been asked to
02:22
present as a speaker at several seminars
02:26
over the years mostly in labor and
02:28
employment type cases and i
02:30
in fact have been asked on many
02:32
occasions to provide the education
02:35
to the judges so i have the judges
02:38
sitting and you know listening to me and
02:40
then you know hopefully when i get to
02:42
their court
02:43
and they’re ruling a certain way i could
02:45
you know they’ll remember
02:46
what what i told them and others it’s
02:48
not going to sway rulings but
02:50
but i do establish a good degree of
02:53
credibility with the judges
02:55
but perhaps the one thing i’m really
02:58
most proud of
03:00
was back in the late 90s to the early
03:04
2000s
03:05
i was asked to edit
03:08
and prepare what we call the texas
03:11
pattern jury charges so
03:13
at the end of a trial the jury is given
03:15
what’s called the charge it’s a familiar
03:18
term to a lot of people basically
03:20
questions and instructions
03:22
but those questions and instructions
03:24
come from somewhere they’ve got to be
03:25
written
03:26
somewhere they obviously come from the
03:28
the the
03:29
applicable law and things like that but
03:32
i was
03:33
i was in charge of it on the employment
03:35
law side
03:36
from the plaintiff’s perspective i
03:38
worked with well one of the people i
03:40
worked with later became the chief
03:42
justice of the supreme court of texas
03:44
and and and other people and that was a
03:47
huge honor because even to this day
03:49
i’ve not done it for the last several
03:51
years they do update it
03:53
pass it on to other people but it’s just
03:56
so rewarding to still
03:57
see my name in there as
04:00
an editor from the day the day they
04:02
started that was
04:04
very rewarding and i really enjoyed that
