We selected eight of the best lawyers from around the state for portraits and asked them to share a favorite quotation and to tell us why they love what they do. These profiles appeared along with Woodward/White’s annual Best Lawyers in America list, as published in our November issue.

“I have been fortunate to work with entrepreneurs in technology and all sorts of other industries on both the legal and business issues that they face as they start, grow and sell their businesses. I have found that entrepreneurs each have different strengths, challenges, successes (and failures), but they all share one critical trait: They are all incredibly passionate about what they do. Their energy and enthusiasm is contagious, and I consider myself fortunate for having the opportunity to work with them as they (and their businesses) grow.”
