I was born on the hottest day in 1958 in Everett Washington and I grew up there. I have encountered a lot of heat since then. That is where I practice law now as a second generation lawyer, following my father who truly is a modern day Atticus Finch.
Things were simpler in 1958. For reasons the people of my hometown don’t really want to know about, the world has become a lot more complex. That is where I come in, as I am schooled in the secret knowledge of lawyers.

I am soon to be a 2L at Syracuse University College of Law and I was recently introduced to your blog. My girlfriend is a joint JD/MPA student who is classmates with your daughter and she sent me this link.
I am very interested in estate planning and your blog is quite entertaining, as well as insightful. Keep up the blogging and I will keep reading.
Best,
Nicholas
