I bet half the people on this board are admitted in California, or once were. 'Nuff said.

The rest of us are waiting for California to change the rules for reciprocity.

A few weeks back I met with a few people from one of the largest health care lenders in the country on a potential deal we may be doing. One of those was the Chair/CEO. He started out as a lawyer, partner of a regional bigger firm, GC of the lender in its infancy, eventually his current position.

Outside of our deal, his personal advice to me was "lose the lawyer hat and grow your business side hat"......can I sell the law licenses that I have?

Why all the poison on the board, Hank? Why can't you just talk about the issues instead of all the ad hominem attacks?

so we up and printed it, and then sued them for the cost- then they conter sued us because we had put their seal on the cover.

then i quit having anything to do with labor law
