November marks "Make a Will Month," a crucial time to remind ourselves of the importance of having an up-to-date Will. Whether you're drafting your first Will or updating an existing one, this month serves as a perfect opportunity to ensure your wishes are clearly documented. A current Will not only provides peace of mind for you, but also offers clarity and direction for your loved ones during what can be a very challenging time. Don't let this month pass by without taking a moment to reflect on this vital aspect of your financial plan. Not sure where to start? Reach out to Marlenne Doss, Matthew Getzler, Rachel Goldman Robinson, Meghan O'Neil or contact Lamont Wealth Strategies and we'd be more than happy to make an introduction to these or another outstanding Wills & Estates Practitioner. #MakeAWillMonth #EstatePlanning #FinancialWellness #WealthyLawyer

The American Bar Association Annual meeting begins today for a week in Chicago. I’ll be wrapping up my second of three years on the Board of Governors for the organization. The progress we’re making can be slow at times but meaningful. Last week, the Board passed its first five year strategic plan. One of first goals is ensuring that we make the organization the home for ALL lawyers and nurture thriving inclusive member communities. The ABA has already been a home for me since I was a young lawyer. I remember going to my first young lawyer meeting in Scottsdale years ago (note how I am purposely vague on how long ago) and feeling a sense of belonging. I had found my “people”. We have to continue to do this for others. Providing meaning and value to membership is just important, even in (or perhaps especially to) an organization as large as the ABA. As we meet over the next few days; I look forward to continuing to discuss ways we can improve both the organization but the member experience. Already, we are investing more to improve the member experience. A new CLE platform is in the works for example. If you’re around, drop me a line so we can connect and talk.

Looking forward to this panel discussion on in-house practice!

One of the reasons I decided to come back to Hall & Evans recently is that the attorneys here know how to try cases and aren't afraid of the courtroom. I've tried more than fifty cases to juries and it's important to me to work with other attorneys who not only understand courtroom litigation, but actually have the experience doing it. One of the skills you can only develop through actual trial work is picking and advocating to a jury. For the litigators out there, please consider coming to the CBA Litigators' Summit this Thursday where I'll be presenting about the impact of diversity on jury deliberations and how to create diverse juries. Research shows diverse juries have wider ranging deliberations and reach verdicts that are better across almost all metrics. Plus diversity protects against deliberations tainted by bias and ignorance. And because those still impact trials shockingly often, I'll be discussing steps trial lawyers can take to ask for a new trial when verdicts are based on animus and harmful stereotypes, rather than actual evidence. As attorneys on the front lines of often high profile trials, it serves the interests of our clients and our communities to pick juries who will reach fair and unbiased verdicts and increase confidence in the court system.
