Four Oaks’ Post

One of the former owners of Eleven Madison Park (which was named the best restaurant in the world multiple times) recently wrote a booked entitled "Unreasonable Hospitality". The book reflects on his and his team’s unwavering focus on the experience obtained from the moment one entered the restaurant through the moment one left. It is a book that posits that principles of care, attention to detail, and the pursuit of excellence are shared values in any profession, including the legal profession. I think it's a worthwhile read for us all and it leads me to my 23rd Counselor Chunk. Counselor Chunk 23: Just because you are in pursuit of excellence in your profession as an attorney, does not give you the license to be inhospitable to your colleagues or your clients. I believe that, as an attorney, you have 3 buckets of attention on which to focus in order to find "unreasonable" success: (1) dedication to your craft; (2) dedication to your clients and (3) dedication to your colleagues. You cannot have great success if one of these buckets are forgotten. #attorneylife #lawyerlife #letsgo

“Amat Victoria Curam” is a Latin phrase meaning Victory Loves Preparation. This phrase can be dated back to the Roman Empire, and has the simple message, if you prepare well enough, you can overcome any obstical. This week the Macon DC is hosting the Tractor Supply Company DC operations audit training. And while we could just host our guest with a room, alittle A/C, and a few snacks, we believe that victory loves preparation! #TSC #MaconDC120 #continuousimprovement

Because of the vast number of new connections and followers I’ve gained over the past couple of days, I’d thought I’d reintroduce myself to my network. 👋 Hi. I’m Jon Hyman. I’m a management-side labor & employment lawyer and a beer lawyer. I’m a shareholder a Wickens Herzer Panza, a boutique corporate law firm, where I chair both our Employment & Labor practice and our Craft Beer practice (which I founded). As a firm, we out small the bigs and out big the smalls. As an employment & labor lawyer, I represent businesses as outside in-house counsel to provide proactive solutions to solve their workforce problems, and as a litigator and trial attorney when employers find themselves in a dispute against an employee or group of employees. As a beer lawyer, I represent craft breweries to help them navigate their specialized business, legal, and regulatory issues. I speak at seminars all over the country on employment law and beer law issues, have appeared on dozens of podcasts, and have been quoted by the national and local press more times than I can count. When I’m asked why I do what I do, it’s because I love helping businesses. The satisfaction I receive from helping clients fix their problems so that they get it right the next time is what motivates me to do my job every day. On LinkedIn, you’ll read content from me designed to help employers become better employers. But it’s not just about “following the law.” The law, after all, is a floor and not a ceiling. Employers act as their best selves when they treat employees the way they want to be treated. If employers acted this way, 99% of issues with employees would never become lawsuits, unions wouldn’t have a reason to exist, and I’d be a full-time beer lawyer instead of a part-time beer lawyer. Personally, I’m a husband, a dad to two teenagers (Norah - 17; Donovan - 15) and a dog (Dante, a 4-year-old vizsla). In my spare time I work as an unpaid roadie for Norah’s burgeoning rock ’n’ roll career, cheer loudly at Donovan’s high school soccer games, and take Dante on endless walks in a losing effort to sap him of his vizsla energy. Finally, I was a Nov. 1999 contestant on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,” but sadly lacked the fastest fingers. It’s a great story, which I’ll happily share if you just ask when we meet in real life. It’s wonderful to have you all in my network. Cheers!
