Marietta, GA personal injury attorney Michael R. Braun talks about his background practicing as a lawyer and his work ethic. He explains that after graduating from the University of Georgia, I made the decision to work while attending law school. For three consecutive years, I juggled a full-time job at a firm during the day and attended law school classes at night. I was determined to make the most of my time and didn’t take any breaks or quarters off. This experience had a profound impact on me, instilling a strong work ethic that has stayed with me to this day.

During those years, I developed a routine of arriving early in the mornings and staying late into the evenings. It was a necessity while balancing work and putting myself through law school, but even now, 25 years later, it remains an integral part of who I am and how I approach my work. Some might say I’m relentless, as I rarely take days off and often arrive early. My wife occasionally expresses her concerns, pointing out that I should take more time off and come home earlier. However, my dedication to my clients and their cases drives me to be at work, ensuring that their needs are taken care of. I prioritize completing tasks and attending to their matters, reserving weekends and evenings for quality time with my family.

It’s a balancing act, but I have come to realize that my commitment to my work is deeply ingrained in my character. I find fulfillment in being there for my clients, providing the support and attention they deserve. While it might be challenging at times, I believe in the importance of being diligent and devoted to my profession. The lessons I learned during those intense years of working and studying have shaped me into the attorney I am today, and I continue to carry that work ethic as a guiding principle in my career.
